⑦在仰韶文化時期,我國就有了對竹利用的確切記載。竹自竹簡、珠筆到竹紙,在保存和傳播我們中華民族的古老文化上立下了汗馬功勞。以竹為題材的詩詞歌賦,用竹編織和雕刻的藝術(shù)品,竹制的笙管笛簫奏出的音樂,無不給人類美的享受。⑧在我國文化史上,竹蘊含著中華民族重要的精神價值。人們在長期的勞動實踐和文化活動中,把竹的生物特征逐漸升華為一種做人的美德。竹四季常青,不畏逆境,和松、梅并譽為“歲寒三友”;竹中空外直,虛懷若谷,和梅、蘭、菊并稱為“四君子”。⑨無論是魏晉嵇康、向秀等“竹林七賢”,還是唐朝李白、韓準(zhǔn)等“竹溪六逸”,莫不對竹有一份執(zhí)著和憧憬,清代鄭板橋,與竹為鄰,以竹為友,愛竹、寫竹、畫竹、贊竹?!扒トf擊還堅韌,任爾東西南北風(fēng)”,正是他堅忍不拔、超凡脫俗的人格寫照。
青蒿素治療瘧疾效果顯著,是抵抗瘧疾耐藥性最好的藥物。中國發(fā)現(xiàn)青蒿素時,美國也研制出一種抗瘧新藥—化學(xué)合成的甲氟喹,但瘧原蟲很快就適應(yīng)了它,產(chǎn)生耐藥性,臨床使用后患者還出現(xiàn)了明顯的不良反應(yīng)。而對于青蒿素這種從中草藥中提取的藥物,瘧原蟲對它完全沒有抵抗能力。1976 年1月,柬埔寨爆發(fā)瘧疾,因瘧原蟲已經(jīng)產(chǎn)生耐藥性,疫情一時難以控制。中國醫(yī)療隊攜帶一批青蒿素在柬埔寨大顯神威,挽救了一大批瘧疾患者的生命。
