However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.Born in September, 1887, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies two dau

39、ghters. 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 Sevigne in Paris.Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree i

Irene died from leukemia.(B)Forget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real DangerWe are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from o

46、ur readers.Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists. But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may eve

47、n do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade(避让)them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision(碰撞).The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them,

48、 much more important than the welfare of others.Michael HoranI love the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists(Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he s

49、houted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing. What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent(发荧光的)jacket and lights at night and in the morning they should pay some sort of t

50、ax and be fined for not wearing them.Carol HarveyCyclists jump on and off pavements(which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed alone the pavement, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the

51、pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?Its about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hi a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and the

Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that .A. drivers should be polite to cyclistsB. road accidents can actually be avoidedC. some pedestrians are a threat to road safetyD. walking while using phone

55、ristmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The messa

56、ge was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, alone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love wri

57、ting. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The

58、poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and

59、 purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper colored with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look

60、 on my dads face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.63.
