We use it when we’re hurting. And it all started with a man who gave a taste of tree skin centuries ago.In 1758, Edward Stone took a walk on a beautiful, sunny morning in England. He stopped to rest under a willow (柳树) tree. Suddenly, he decided to try a bit of the tree skin. The bitter (苦的) taste reminded him of medicine and he started to think whether it could be used as a medicine. Edward referred to medicine books for answers, but he failed. Still, he decided to test it on his family, friends and neighbors with headache and it really helped them feel better.Edward Stone wasn’t the first one to learn this medicine. Willows grow everywhere, so they’re cheap and easy to get. People around the world have been using it for thousands of years to reduce agony. But Edward was the first to work on it and record the risk of it.In 1888, the Bayer company was looking for new medicines to sell. Two years later, the company invited scientists to find out which part of the willow skin could be used for medicine. Then, they studied how to turn it into medicines that were easy to take. Finally, after 7 years of work, they succeeded. The Bayer company named this new pain-killing medicine “aspirin”.Soon, the medicine became a success and made huge money for Bayer. The hard work of scientists makes a history. Aspirin has become one of the most-used pain-killing medicines and you can buy it at a cheap price from almost every medicine store all over the world. And it all started with Edward’s curiosity.It is curiosity that makes us learn and benefit from nature Stay hungry. Stay foolish. Maybe you are the next scientist that changes the world.21.
