Marie Curie,born in Warsaw,Poland in 1867,led a hard life as a girl.Her parents,both teachers,had low salaries and were quite poor,especially after her mother stopped teaching to ④raise five children and take care of her poor health.Marie’s mother suffered from tuberculosis(肺结核)and died of it when Marie was ten.
When Marie was young,she showed great interest in science.She loved to study and hoped to become a scientist when she grew up.Her parents encouraged her interest in science.⑤Excellent as she was in her studies,she couldn’t go on with the advanced education she needed because Poland was then ruled by Russia and women were not permitted to go to college.
In order to continue her education,she smoothed away many difficulties and entered Paris University,where she lived a simple life and studied hard.She graduated with the highest grades in her class.
After graduation she was engaged(从事) in scientific research in Paris University.There she met Pierre Curie,whom she married.Pierre joined her in her research into an unknown phenomenon “radiation”,which a certain scientist had declared that uranium gave off.The Curies spent several years trying their best to find the element that produced radiation.Finally they succeeded in 1902.
Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes,one for physics in 1906,⑥together with her husband and another scientist;the other for chemistry herself in 1911.Madame Curie was a scientist of great achievement,and the first woman ever to be honored in the Nobel Prize history.

To keep his website going,he travels around the world on several major trips each year.His working tools are a laptop computer,cameras and some diving equipment.He often calls on experts for information.For example,he interviewed Alison Jolly,a top expert on lemurs.He interviewed Rodney Jackson,a biologist who established the Snow Leopard Conservancy.

Ways to avoid crowds when travelling
·Book tickets in advance
Purchase tickets online before you leave home. 1 Smart travellers can also avoid the queue when visiting abroad the London Eye,Britain’s Houses of Parliament,Italy’s Vatican Museums, and Paris’s Louvre. It can help you keep your cool with online ticket sales. Buy early and avoid the stress of the waiting time.
· 2
If you forgot to purchase tickets beforehand,do the next best thing and show up early.There are fewer travellers in the morning when an attraction opens its doors for the day. This plan is especially useful for tourist sites that are overrun with people by midday.Some seasoned travellers prefer to do the opposite and show up late in the day, or around dinnertime. 3
·Talk to people
It’s the job of the doorman in your hotel or the clerk in the tourist office to know their city’s attractions inside and out. Have a friendly chat with these experts to get their advice on the best time to visit popular sites. 4 It’s also extremely helpful to talk to locals, taxi drivers and even fellow travellers.Often they’ll know the secrets of touring in demand places when they’re not teaming with people.
·Adjust your mealtime
5 And if you meet theatre fans unexpectedly in New York,London or Toronto,the queue for a meal can stretch past an hour.Eat a bit early or a little later,and you’ll beat both the crowds and your hunger.
A.Arrive early or late
B.Avoid school holidays
C.Both strategies can help you escape the crowds
D.Remember to ask when they would do it in person
E.You’ll experience the country’s culture like a local,not a tourist
F.If so,you can skip the crowds and the endless lines at your destination
G.Popular restaurants will always have a long wait at usual dinnertime.

It can help you keep your cool with online ticket sales. Buy early and avoid the stress of the waiting time.
· 2
If you forgot to purchase tickets beforehand,do the next best thing and show up early.There are fewer travellers in the morning when an attraction opens its doors for the day. This plan is especially useful for tourist sites that are overrun with people by midday.Some seasoned travellers prefer to do the opposite and show up late in the day, or around dinnertime. 3
·Talk to people
It’s the job of the doorman in your hotel or the clerk in the tourist office to know their city’s attractions inside and out. Have a friendly chat with these experts to get their advice on the best time to visit popular sites. 4 It’s also extremely helpful to talk to locals, taxi drivers and even fellow travellers.Often they’ll know the secrets of touring in demand places when they’re not teaming with people.
·Adjust your mealtime
