I was delighted to receive a copy of Marie Curie and Her Daughters by Shelley Emling through my mailbox a few weeks ago.
Actually science has never really been my “thing”. At school I really struggled with physics and chemistry and was much happier in English Language or History classes. My mind is not structured enough to understand how science works. I’m a bit of a daydreamer and prefer using my imagination rather than learning facts, figures and formulae (公式).Of course I knew who Marie Curie was, her great achievements, her contribution to science, to medical advances and her influence on the world, but other than those, I really had very little idea about her life.
Shelley Emling has based this book on Marie Curie’s relationship with her two daughters, Irene and Eve. The book begins after the early death of Pierre Curie, when Marie is left to carry on the work that they started as a couple and to bring up her two small daughters alone. Emling has concentrated her book on the communication between Marie and her daughters. In her daighter's opinion, she was not an overly-protective mother, nor did she hesitate to spend time away from her daughters, yet this did not weaken their relationship. Marie was a caring and loving mother, who encouraged her daughters to become individuals, to achieve what they wanted to.
Marie Curie and her husband made the decision not to profit from their discoveries. It was because of this that Marie had to depend on donations to carry out her work, and that she had to carry out tours of the States.
I was very impressed by Emling’s writing style—she has told the story of three extraordinary women who were way ahead of their time in an interesting and very readable manner.
1.What is the writer good at?
A. Daydreaming. B. English and History.
C. Physics and chemistry. D. Facts, figures and formulae.
2.What is Marie Curie like in the eyes of Irene and Eve?
A. She makes a pet of them like babies. ,
B. She avoids staying away from them.
C. She encourages them to build their own characters.
D. She wants to be involved in every area of their life.
3.Why did Marie Curie tour the States?
A. Because she meant to make herself a famous person.
B. Because she needed money to bring up her two small daughters by herself.
C. Because she wished to introduce the medical advances to people in the U. S.
D. Because she decided to continue her work without money made from discoveries.
4.What’s the focus of the book written by Shelley Emling?
A. The connection between Marie Curie and her daughters.
B. The contributions Marie Curie made to the world.
C. The research work of Marie Curie and her husband.
D. The decision made by Marie Curie and her husband.

When my daughter, Sophie, was admitted to a college we were very happy, but a little worried about becoming empty nesters. I knew I had to do something to help myself adapt, starting with the summer before she left.
Sophie had a pack of colorful T-shirts. I knew she wouldn’t wear them any more, so I decided to make a quilt out of them for her bed at college. It focused my energy, and also let me relive some memories. I tried to work on the quilt when Sophie wasn’t at home----which turned out to be often. She was very busy with her friends. Even when she was around, her door was shut more than usual. I felt a bit hurt. After all, we didn’t have much time together before she went to college, I was already missing her, and she hadn’t ever left yet.
When we arrived at the college, a wave of emotion flooded me. I tried to hold it back, but Sophie saw it in my face. She took a big red book from her bag. “I made this for you, Mom,” she said. Then I knew why she had been staying behind a closed door that summer. It was an album of photographs documenting the life of our family over the last 17 years.
I broke into tears. Some of it was sadness at having to let her go, but some of it was joy. I knew that our connection was more powerful than ever, and that we’d always be connected by the strongest of threads, the love that went into every stitch of her quilt and every photo of my album.
In Sophie’s dormitory I unfolded the quilt on her bed. For a moment she was speechless. Then she threw her arms around me. “Mom, I love you,” she said. One of her new friends was calling her outside. Sophie turned, and I let her go.

My 10-year-old nephew is timid. I was delighted when his mother, my sister, asked me to take him to the circus(马戏团). "Buy one bag of popcorn," she ordered.
"Is there anything we should avoid?"
"Yes, but you can’t avoid it. It’s the elephants’ parade around the ring."
David has read that the circus elephants are the most unhappy creatures in the universe. They’d rather be torn open by a lion than made fool of themselves before a crowd. So, when they started their act, David began to cry, "Those big, big tears …"
So, eyes still dry, sharing popcorn, we watched simian(猴的) cast rush into the ring to a burst of cheers. Then we watched the individual acts — the monkey from the Bolshoi, the famous clown who climbed the tallest pole, hanging on by a finger and a knee. He raised laughter from the audience of children. If the clown slipped, the net would catch him, although no net can be trusted. It’s easy to fall wrong, and if so you can break your silly neck. I would keep that information from David, I promised my schoolteacher. I was the cool adult here.
At last elephants came and did their parade, each wearing a hat. My arm slipped around my beloved nephew.
"Aunt Ella, they are so unhappy."
"I believe they are. But some day this act will be outlawed."
"Really?"
"Yes. The elephants will be returned to the grasslands in Africa and spend the rest of their lives eating green stuff, never having to grab a tail." I put my arms around him and whispered in his ear, "I love you."
He did not sob(呜咽) but nestled closer to me.
The elephants were the last act of the first half of the show, and enduring their performance earned us another box of popcorn.
【题文1】 Why did the author’s sister ask her to buy a bag of popcorn?
A. To show a new fashion.
B. To use it to help David kill time.
C. To use it to help improve David’s attention.
D. To use it to distract David’s attention to his fear.
【题文2】 What does the author use "clown" in Paragraph 5 to refer to?
A. The circus monkey. B. The circus worker.
C. The circus audience. D. The amusing actor.
【题文3】 How did the author feel when watching the monkey acting?
A. She was touched by its acting. B. She was afraid of her nephew’s fear.
C. She regretted taking David to watch it. D. She was worried about the monkey’s safety.
【题文4】What will the following paragraph be about?
A. How the author comforted her nephew. B. What the second half of the show was like.
C. What lesson the author got from the show. D. How much popcorn was needed in the play.
