My Peronal Experiance
When I was in Junior High School, I was not a very diligent
student. In fact, I was quite lazy. I hated all the subjects that I took during
school, especially science. For me science was very difficult. It was hard for
me to remember the chemical processes, physics calculations, and biological
processes.
Once, my teacher grounded me in the library because I did not
do my biology homework. The teacher asked me to read several books and make a
summary about them. When I was browsing the shelves, I found a book entitled
“The Inventors of Medicine” I thought “Ok, this ia a start”. I took it out then
began reading it.
I learned from the book about Edward Jenner. He was an English
doctor who found the cure for smallpox. The next one was Louis Pasteur. His
interest in bacteria led him to discover the treatments for rabies and anthrax.
Just like Pasteur, Robert Koch’s experiments on bacteria also proved that
tuberculosis can be spread to others by contact. Finally, there was Alexander
Flemming, a British bacteriologist who found the first antibiotic and
penicillin.
After I read the book, I realized that science is useful for
human kind. By studying, we can discover things that can help human kind.
Therefore, since that moment, I managed to change my behavior and became a doctor.
