Question

Today many people say that women have the same chance as men in society. But this was not always so. In the past, women all over the world had to fight to get the same chance as men in education and jobs. Many people said that women should not receive much education because they would not do as well as men when they went to work.
One woman who showed that women should have the same chance was Marie, a scientist. In the 1800s scientists knew that a metal, uranium, gave off radiation. They also knew how much radiation came from his element. But they didn’t know what this radiation was like; they wondered why and how uranium gave off radiation. Marie Curie set out to answer these questions. In one of her experiments she was studying a certain material which, she knew, contained uranium, But it gave off 4 times as much radiation as usually does. What could explain this fact? Marie Curie thought that there must be another source of radiation in this material.
In 1898 Marie Curie set out to find out this new source of radiation, which she named “radium”. Her husband, who was also a scientist, helped her. They set up a laboratory in an old building behind a school. For four years Curies searched, doing many experiments, And one morning in 1902 Marie found the source of the radiation.
Marie Curie proved to the world that there was element that gave off radiation. And she also proved to the world that, if women are given truly equal chance, they can really help society

試題分析：
1.細(xì)節(jié)題。由文中的這句In the 1800s scientists knew that a metal, uranium, gave off radiation.可知答案選A。
2.細(xì)節(jié)題。由文章第二段和第三段可知居里夫婦做了很多的實(shí)驗(yàn)，終于發(fā)現(xiàn)了鐳元素，故答案選C。
3.推斷題。由第一段的In the past, women all over the world had to fight to get the same chance as men in education and jobs. Many people said that women should not receive much education because they would not do as well as men when they went to work.可知過去人們認(rèn)為女人不會(huì)像男人一樣把工作做好，故答案選D。
4.細(xì)節(jié)題。由最后一段的Marie Curie proved to the world that there was element that gave off radiation. And she also proved to the world that, if women are given truly equal chance, they can really help society.可知答案選D。
考點(diǎn)：本篇是一篇人物傳記。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：文章通過對(duì)鐳是如何被發(fā)現(xiàn)的來(lái)說明居里夫人這個(gè)人物對(duì)世界科學(xué)方面所做的貢獻(xiàn)，同時(shí)更說明了女人也可以像男人一樣把工作做好，只要給予她們平等的機(jī)會(huì)和權(quán)利。文章思路清晰，主旨鮮明，帶著問題，通讀全文，找尋答案。
