Unit 1 Women of achievement ;1．A number of women in the world have made great contributions to the world. Do you know Jane Goodall? Can you say something about her? 2．Where did Jane and Dr Louis S．B. Leakey begin to do their research on chimpanzees? Please read the following passage to get the answer.; Jane Goodall, a noted humanitarian (人道主义者) and environmentalist, has spent many years observing the behaviour of chimpanzees in their native habitat. Jane Goodall was born on 3rd April, 1934 in London, England. Her childhood ambition (抱负) was to spend time with animals in the wild.
