Curie was a Polish physicist and chemist who lived between 18671934.Together with her husband，Pierre，she discovered two new elements (radium and polonium，two radioactive elements that they extracted chemically from pitch­blended ore) and studied the X­rays they emitted.She found that the harmful properties of X­rays were able to kill tumors.By the end of World War ，Marie Curie was probably the most famous woman in the world.She had made a conscious decision，however，not to patent methods of processing radium or its medical applications.Marie Curie was born on November 7,1867 in Poland and died on July 4,1934.Her co­discovery with her husband Pierre Curie of the radioactive elements radium and polonium represents one of the best­known stories in modern science for which they were recognized in 1901 with the Nobel Prize in Physics.In 1911，Marie Curie was honored with a second Nobel Prize，this time in Chemistry，to honor her for successfully isolating pure radium and determining radiums atomic weight.As a child，Marie Curie amazed people with her great memory.She learned to read when she was only four years old.Her father was a professor of science and the instruments that he kept in a glass case fascinated Marie.She dreamed of becoming a scientist，but that would not be easy.Her family became very poor，and at the age of 18，Marie became a governess.She helped pay for her sister to study in Paris.Later，her sister helped Marie with her education.In 1891，Marie attended the Sorbonne University in Paris where she met and married Pierre Curie，a well­known physicist.Marie Curie contributed greatly to our understanding of radioactivity and the effects of X­rays.She received two Nobel Prizes for her brilliant work，but died of leukaemia，caused by her repeated exposure to radioactive materials.56What is the main idea of the passage?ATo give us a general introduction to Madame Curie.BTo show us how Madame Curie discovered radium.CTo tell us how Madame Curie developed as a scientist.DTo tell us how Madame Curie received two Nobel Prizes.57Which of the following statements about Madame Curie is NOT true?AMadame Curie made great contributions to medical science.BMadame Curie was very smart and ambitious when she was a child.CMadame Curie received two Nobel Prizes in Physics.DMadame Curies husband helped her a lot in her research.58We can infer from the third paragraph that _.Madame Curie got married when she was at college.Madame Curie had a great ambition when she was young.Madame Curie loved teaching more than anything else.Madame Curie must have met a lot of difficulties to get high education.Madame Curies father had a great influence on her future career.Madame Curie was very smart when she was a child.A BC D59Which is the right order about Madame Curie according to the passage?amarried Pierrebattended universitycdiscovered radiumddetermined radiums atomic weightewon the Nobel Prize in PhysicsAb，c，a，d，e Bb，a，c，d，eCb，a，c，e，d Db，c，a，e，dBCelebrities(名人) have become a powerful influence on some people because of their social position and their economic situation.First，some people admire and imitate stars because they allow themselves to be influenced by the media.Television，radio，and magazines invade(侵扰) the lives of audience with a variety of shows，information，and publications about stars and their lives.For instance，Britney Spears has become the target of paparazzi(狗仔队)In May，Britney appeared at the front page of the most popular magazines revealing that she married her best friend in Vegas，Nevada.Media also invade stars lives because reporters know they get high profits from readers who buy and follow their favorite artists news.Second，some mad audience imitate their celebrities for their lack of confidence.Some people who are shy and lack personality may find that imitating others will cause a good impression.For instance，my cousin Jenny，who lacks a social life because of her introverted(内向的) personality，believes that acting and dressing like Jennifer Lopez will make her popular in high school.Finally，several fans of stars imitate them because of peer(同龄人) pressure.Since my nieces girl friends formed an Antonio Banderas fan club，she had also joined the group.Although she wasnt a huge fan of his，now she collects most of Banderas possessions.In fact，when I asked Arianna，my niece，why she was part of Banderas fan club，she replied with a doubtful tone that she did not wish to be rejected by the other teens.In conclusion，it is true that celebrities play spectacular roles in their performances in Hollywood，which entertains many people all over the world；however，modern celebrities influence the audience to the point where their fans admire and try to imitate their lives.60What does the passage mainly tell us?AWhy people are influenced by celebrities.BThe harmful influence of celebrities.CWhat kind of people are influenced by celebrities.DHow to avoid the influence of celebrities.61We can infer from Paragraph 2 that_.Amedia are on the side of starsBstars know how to take advantage of mediaCmedia can give wrong information about starsDmedia invade stars lives for their own good62Jenny acts and dresses like Jennifer Lopez because_.Ashe admires Jennifer Lopezs personalityBshe wants to become famous tooCshe wants to change her own personalityDshe lacks self­confidence63The author of the passage probably believes that_.Aits easy for people to resist the influence of celebritiesBall young people are easily influenced by celebritiesCits no good for people to imitate celebrities blindlyDpeople can improve their personality by imitating their favorite starsCProfessor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact these days.The term is “networked individualism”This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings.How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time？You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means.Before the invention of the Internet and email，our social networks involved live interactions with relatives，neighbors，and colleagues at work.Some of the interaction was by phone，but it was still voice to voice，person to person，in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of
