However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner. Born in September, 1987, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Svign in Paris. Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities（设备） to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognised in the form of a Militarys Medal by the French government. In 1918, Irene became her mothers assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later. Like her mother, Irene bined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity（辐射能）. Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 195621. Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?A. Because she received a degree in mathematicsB. Because she contributed to saving the woundedC. Because she won the Nobel Prize with FredericD. Because she worked as a helper to her mother22.

When was the second child of Irene Curie and Frederic Joliot born?A. In 1932 B. In 1927 C. In 1897 D. In 192624. In which of the following aspects was Irene Curie different from her mother?A. Irene worked with radioactivity B. Irene bined family and careerC. Irene won the Nobel Prize once D. Irene died from leukemiaBI know what youre thinking : pizza （比萨饼）? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last nights leftovers in the a. m. if you want to I know lots of women who skip breakfast （不吃早餐） , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they dont have time. Others think theyre “saving” calories; still others just dont like breakfast food.But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when youre trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this years “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if its loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece. Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last nights leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try ityou may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.25. The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means_.A. food remaining after a meal B. things left undone C. meals made of vegetables D. pizza topped with fruit 26. What can we infer from the text? A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry. B. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast. C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal. D. Eating vegetables helps save energy. 27. According to the last paragraph, it is important to_. A. eat something for breakfast B. be careful about what you eat C. heat up food before eating it D. eat calorie-controlled food 28. The text is written mainly for those_. A. who go to work early B. who want to lose weight C. who stay up late D. who eat before sleep C My friend, Peg, and I were seeking evidence that there were people who were treating our soil, our waters, our air with the love and respect they deserved. And we found it.One day we saw a busload of school children on an outing. The bus had stopped at a hamburger stand where we were having a rest, and half-a-hundred children poured out. Busloads of children, of course, were not new, and I hardly gave them more than a glance until I realized what they were doing. Chatting and laughing, the children were picking up as much waste as they could carry from around the stand and its parking area. They took the waste to their bus, where several bags had been brought out for the waste.Within five minutes, before our astonished eyes, that parking lot had been picked clean. Impressed, I walked over to their teacher. Im interested, I began. In fact, Im surprised at how those kids worked this place over. Is this some kind of environment protection class?Youd never guess it, he said, but were a history class. A history class?Thats right. Were on our way from Boston to visit Fort(城堡) Ticonderoga. Before the trip, one of the things we tried to find out was how the Ticonderoga countryside looked back in old days, he said. In fact, we made a little table display of the scene, using toy buildings and toy trees. When one kid jokinglysuggested we ought to put a few bottles and cans around to make it look real, the others blamed him. But the boy argued that he bet Ticonderoga would look like that today. Besides, if they thought it was so funny, were they prepared to clean it up if he was right? The class decided, however, that the entire fort might be too big a task to do. But they agreed to clean up any roadside area where they stopped on their way to the fort. And so thats what they did!29. How did the author feel when he understood what the kids were doing?A. Amazed. B. Bored. C. Disappointed. D. Unconcerned.30. Why were the students going to Fort Ticonderoga?A. To learn history. B. To go outing for fun.C. To clean the roads to the fort. D.
