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.

The largest-ever chariot pit (战车坑) of relics with carts and horse bones has been discovered in Henan
Province. It may lead to theuncovering of chariot pit groups that could be a key to understanding Chinese
civilizations that existed more than 2,000 years ago.
Experts said therelics are dated more than 300 years earlier than the famous warriors (武士) in Shaanxi
Province. What excited theexperts were two othe r projects that located two huge pits with similar features.
"It is absolutely a miracle. these relics indicate that the re could be a tomb group in this area, which is likely
to be important for China's archaeological (考古学的) studies," said Ma Juncai, a leading relic researcher in the
province.
In ancient China, carts, sheep, spoons and so on were buried to ensure that dead people had a happy
afterlife. thenumber and quality of the sacrifices indicated the social status of the dead. the custom was carried
into theQin Dynasty. Emperor Qinshihuang's tomb, located near Xi'an, the capital of Shanxi Province, is
accompanied by thousands of wood or clay figures of warriors and horses. thetomb is probably the most
well-known.
Thediscovered pit measures 10.4 meters long, 8.4 meters wide and 5 meters deep. It holds 20 carts in
different sizes. thesmallest one is 1.05 meters long and 1.3 meters wide.
Experts think that 40 horses are likely to be found as well. Careful plans need to be made to deal with the
demanding uncovering."the clay is very weak and a small misstep can destroy the whole project. That's why
we need to take every step very carefully to protect these cherished cultural relics," Ma said.
