Read the following passage, and then choose the correct answer:
Plants have been used for treating illnesses since primitive times. Paintings in the
tombs of the pharaohs show that plants were being used by the Ancient Egyptians for
medical purposes. Today, some drugs are still based on natural herbs. Aspirin, for
example, is based on the bark of willow trees.
Natural remedies are attracting increasing attention all over the world. The
advantage of herbal medicine is that the whole of the plant can be used. The powerful
substance in the plant cures the illness while the contents of the rest of the plant may
help to prevent any harmful side effects. In this way, herbal medicines may be safer
than chemical ones. Garlic is just one herb which has been used throughout the world
as a cure for diseases as it is used to treat hair problems. Similarly, henna, which is
known to be good for the hair, can be used in the treatment of cancer.
If you pay a visit to a herbalist shop, you will be struck by different colours and
smells. There are jars full of tree barks, roots, powders, oils and spices. The customer
enters the shop and explains his symptoms to the herbalist, who will take notes, study
medical reports and check his reference books before writing out a prescription.
However, about eighty percent of those who consult a herbalist have already been to
a doctor.
As a result of the worldwide interest in herbal medicines, Egypt has set aside 50,000
acres of land in Beni Suef and Minya for the cultivation of herbs with medical
properties. If this experiment is successful, lots of countries may import herbs from
Egypt in the near future.
Choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d:
