摘要： What’s the passage mainly about? A. Ancient discoveries. B. Women scientists. C. Successful marriages. D. Different prizes. 答案:56-60 CBDDB B Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can “farm on a piece of “land and “grow , “sell or even “steal “vegetables , “flowers and “fruits on the Net. They earn some e-money and buy more “seeds , “pets and even “houses . Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions. Harold: I don’t quite understand why they are so mad about the childish game. Maybe they are just not confident enough to face the real world. Allan: I enjoy putting some “bugs in my friends’' gardens and we’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it. Laura: You know, people in the city are longing for the life in the countryside. It reduces my work pressure in the office; besides, it gives me the exciting feeling of being a “thief . Ivy: Well, it’s just a waste of time. Teenagers playing the game spend so many hours on it that they cannot pay more attention to their study.

Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times. Twelve women have won the Nobel
Prize for science, one of thehighest honors in the world. Some women scientists never married, some worked with the ir husbands, and othe rs raised large families. It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.
In theearly 1800s in England, Mary Anning became one of the first women recognized for her discoveries
about theancient history of the earth. Mary and her fathe r collected fossils (化石) in the ir village on the south
coast of Great Britain. Fossils are parts of plants or animals that have been saved in rocks for millions of years.
When she was only twelve years old, Mary became thefirst person to find the almost complete skeletons
(骨架) of several animals that no longer existed on earth. She didn't become famous for her discoveries at that
time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family.
In 1891, a young Polish woman named Marie Sklodowska traveled to Paris to study physics. She did so
because she could not get a college education in Poland. She began working in thelaboratory of a man named
Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together. the y received the
Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 along with anothe r scientist. Marie Curie became the first person to be
awarded a second Nobel Prize in 1911, this time for Chemistry. Marie Curie was one of thefew women at the
time who became famous as a scientist.
