Question from UN :

Questions 19 to 22 refer to the following text.

Dorothy Hodgkin was a British chemist. She was born on May 12, 1910, in Cairo, Egypt. Her
determination to study the structure of penicillin and vitamin brought her the 1964 Nobel Prize for
Chemistry. Her work on critical discoveries of the structure of both penicillin and later insulin led to
significant improvements in health care. Dorothy Hodgkin was the eldest of four sisters whose parents
worked in North Africa and the Middle East as archaeologists. She was sent to England for her
education, therefore she spent much of her childhood away from her parents. But it was her mother
who especially encouraged Hodgkin to pursue her interest in crystals that she first displayed at age 10.

Dorothy Hodgkin studied at a state secondary school in the small town of Suffolk. She fought to
be allowed to study science along with the boys. She succeeded and was later accepted in 1928 to
pursue a degree in chemistry at University of Oxford. She was one of the first scientists who studied the
structure of an organic compound by using X-ray crystallography.

An Australian pathologist, Howard Florey, who shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology on Medicine
with Alexander Fleming and his colleagues at Oxford succeeded in isolating penicillin. He asked Hodgkin
to solve its structure. By l 945 she did her job. Hodgkin's work on penicillin was recognized by the Royal
Society, Britain's premier scientific academy, in 1947. That was only two years after a woman had been
elected for the first time.

It can be seen that the questions from the UN and the questions made by the teacher have the same
pattern, namely the C1 (remember) indicator. In the questions from the National Examination, in my
opinion it is good, but in the questions made by the teacher, the options are not too good because they
add each name to one option even though there is no name in the text even though I know the purpose
as distracters to students and in my opinion it doesn't make sense. Overall, based on norm and my
analysis, the two questions above are good.
