There is a famous phrase in <em>The Death of Ivan Ilych</em> that says:

<em>"Ivan Ilych's life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible."</em>

Tolstoy thinks Ivan's life had been the most terrible because it lacked meaningful goals and deep connections to people. Ivan lived in the way that society deemed acceptable and admirable, which means that he was dominated by ambition, social status, and the desire to always achieve more and want more in order to be better than others. His only goals in life were to climb the social ladder and tolerate his unhappy marriage. His social relations were not built for meaningful reasons. Instead, they were a consequence of social convention. All of these reasons blinded him to the important things in life, making his life terrible.

The edited biography of Alexander Fleming is given below. First see the definition of Standard English Conventions.

<h3>What is  Standard English Conventions?</h3>

Standard English Conventions questions focus on some of the most fundamental aspects of writing, such as sentence form, use, and punctuation.

"Conventions" is merely another word for normal procedures and expectations that we adhere to in many aspects of our life.

<h3>What is the revised edition?</h3>

The revised edition is as given below:

It is extremely uncommon to come across someone who alters how others perceive the world. One such person was Alexander Fleming. Before 1928, when Fleming's smart and creative mind developed it, penicillin, a treatment for numerous infections, did not exist.

As a young man, Fleming was very interested in the study of medicine. Under the direction of bacteriologist Almroth Wright, he started his research career in 1906 at St. Mary's Hospital in London, England. During World War I, Fleming dealt with injured troops while serving in the Royal Army Medical Corps. He discovered that the liquid antiseptics used to treat wounds had a significant negative impact on a person's capacity to combat bacterial infections. He therefore thought that wounds should be kept clean and dry rather than being treated with antiseptics. His suggestions were mainly ignored, though.

Fleming came back to St. Mary's in 1918 and was appointed the department's assistant director. He made an astonishing finding regarding the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, which can result in serious human infections, ten years later, in September 1928. Fleming discovered an unfamiliar mold had grown around the bacteria after leaving it unattended in a petri dish. He was startled to learn through studying the mold that it was a form of antibiotic—a compound that can either kill or stop the growth of germs. Penicillin was given a name by him, and word of its therapeutic efficacy in treating bacterial infections quickly spread. After that, he was successful in stabilizing and purifying penicillin for use by the general population with the aid of scientists from the University of Oxford, Howard Florey and Ernst Chain.

Penicillin's discovery changed medicine and made Alexander Fleming a hero. He was chosen as a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1943, and a year later, he was knighted. For the discovery of penicillin and their contributions to medicine, Fleming, Chain, and Florey were given the Nobel Prize in 1945.Later in life, Sir Alexander Fleming published numerous publications in international medical and scientific journals on topics like immunology, chemotherapy, and bacteriology. Fleming passed away in London in 1955, but his legacy is still honored today.
