奇怪的疾病少兒英語故事

A Strange Disease

When the construction of the firework factory came to the stage of painting, a pump was put in. Then, all the painters in the neighbourhood were defeated by a severe disease whose characteristic was alike to that of a bad burn.

An expert physician was instructed to attend to the victims and handle this case. He was enthusiastic, but he didn’t foresee that it was a hard challenge. After simple enquiry, he announced that the polluted paint was to blame. But without positive evidence, people suspected and rejected his view, saying the theory he put forward made no sense. Being much more strict with himself, he contributed himself to the case. Apart from making enquiries, he made detailed charts and analysed the data cautiously. Finally, he drew a scientific conclusion, linking the disease to the radium in the pump. Exposed to radium, a kind of radioactive material in the universe, people absorbed radiation and got sick immediately.

Spinning the pump backward, he took away the radium. This simple movement cured all the victims.

奇怪的疾病

當那座煙花工廠的建設到了油漆階段時，一個水泵被安裝進來，接着，在它附近的.油漆

工都得了一種嚴重的疾病（疾病擊敗油漆工），其特徵與燒傷相似。

一位經驗豐富的內科醫生被指定去照顧受害者並負責處理這一案例。他熱情地投入到工作中，但是卻沒有預見到這是一次艱難的挑戰。在簡單的詢問後，他就宣佈説罪魁禍首是受污染的油漆（油漆應受責備）。但是沒有確實的證據，人們很懷疑並拒絕他的觀點，大家都説他提出的理論毫無道理。他對自己要求更加嚴格，全身心地投入。除了詢問，他還製作了詳細的圖表，謹慎地分析各項數據，最後，他終於得出了一個科學的結論，把疾病和水泵中的鐳聯繫起來。鐳是宇宙中的一種放射性物質，當暴露在鐳的輻射中時，人體吸收其射線，立刻染上疾病。

他把水泵向後旋轉，拿走了裏面的鐳，這個簡單的動作治癒了所有的受害者。
