59。D推理判断题。从倒数第二段…andtheytoldmehowamazedtheywerethat…推断知，当时小朋友们对于圣诞老人居然这么了解他们的家庭生活感到非常吃惊,所以答案选D项。60.A主旨大意题。从全文知，本文作者主要讲述了自己的父亲，一个平凡中显现伟大的送信人的故事，所以用A项能较好地概括全文中心,这里用TheMail来突出父亲的工作和他的敬业，故A项最佳.＊＊＊＊＊＊＊*＊*＊******＊＊*＊*****＊**＊＊＊*＊＊*＊＊**＊＊＊*＊*＊＊**＊＊*＊*结束BMostpeopleknowthatMarieCuriewasthefirstwomantowintheNobelPrize，andthefirstpersontowinittwice．However，fewpeopleknowthatshewasalsothemotherofaNobelPrizewinner．BorninSeptember，1897,IreneCuriewasthefirstoftheCuries’twodaughters．Alongwithnineotherchildrenwhoseparentswerealsofamousscholars，Irenestudiedintheirownschool,andhermotherwasoneoftheteachers．ShefinishedherhighschooleducationattheCollegeofSévignéinParis．IreneenteredtheUniversityofParisin1914toprepareforadegreeinmathematicsandphysics．WhenWorldWarIbegan，Irenewenttohelphermother，whowasusingX-rayfacilities（设备）tohelpsavethelivesofwoundedsoldiers．IrenecontinuedtheworkbydevelopingX—rayfacilitiesinmilitaryhospitalsinFranceandBelgium．HerserviceswererecognizedintheformofaMilitary’sMedalbytheFrenchgovernment．
