25、ately. And by the time he was twenty, he was a skillful chemist and excellent linguist, speaking Swedish, Russian, German, French and English. Like his father, Alfred Nobel was imaginative and inventive, but he had better luck in business and showed more financial sense. He was quick to see industri
26、al openings for his scientific inventions and built up over 80 companies in 20 different countries. Indeed his greatness lay in his outstanding ability to combine the qualities of an original scientist with those of a forward-looking industrialist.But Nobels main concern was never with making money
27、or even with making scientific discoveries. Seldom happy, he was always searching for a meaning to life, and from his youth had taken a serious interest in literature and philosophy.

29、 until his death in Italy in 1896. His famous will, in which he left money to provide prizes for outstanding work in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology, Medicine, Literature and Peace, is a memorial to his interests and ideals.

32、 make efforts in building monuments in memory of the dead, we should do something to provide more food for the living.C. When we are planning to build monuments to honor the dead, we should also make real efforts to provide the living with more food.D. Living with honor comes more important than dea

In leaving behind a well-meant will, Alfred Nobel succeeded in building a permanent monument for his interests and ideals.B. Alfred Nobel made a glorious will so that he might be remembered and respected after his
34、death.C. In his famous will, Alfred Nobel expressed his wish that a monument should be put up in memory of him as a scientist and inventor.D.

The balloon will shoot dust into the Earths upper atmosphere, causing more sunlight to reflect back into space. The
40、 dust, known as stratospheric aerosolinjection(SAI), is part of a solar geoengineering (地球工程) program named SCoPex which is being conducted by Harvard University. The aim of the program is to purposely change the Earths atmosphere to fight climate change.Those who oppose worry about two things. Firs

Since the world is unlikely to achieve the 1. 5 global warming target set in the Paris Agreement,
43、 some green organizations favour small-sized geoengineering research.Regardless of the criticism, the research continues. Geoengineering is increasingly gaining international attention. A recent report about climate change suggested that SAI could help keep warming below 1. 5. The National Academy o
