Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times.Twelve women have won the Nobel Prize for Science,one of the highest honors in the world.Some women scientists never married,some worked with their husbands,and others raised large families.It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.
In the early 1800s in England,Mary Anning became one of the first women recognized for her discoveries about the ancient history of the earth.Mary and her father collected fossils(化石) in their 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 the first person to find the almost complete skeletons(骨架) of several animals that no longer existed on the 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 the laboratory of a man named Pierre Curie.Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together.They received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 along with another scientist.Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Noble Prize in 1911,this time for Chemistry.Marie Curie was one of the few women at the time who became famous as a scientist.

Thousands of encouraging roadside signs have been planted around the world, and it's all thanks to one woman who felt helpless in the face of mental illness.
Amy Wolff was first encouraged to start planting the encouraging signs after she had a heartbreaking discussion with a friend in May 2017.“We were hanging out with friends when one of them mentioned the growing number of people trying to kill themselves in our community,” says Wolff.“I wasn't a doctor.I didn't know of anyone suffering from thoughts of selfharm.What could I do?”
Then Wolff got the idea to start planting encouraging signs in people's yards.For the following two weeks, she and her kids started knocking on people's doors across their town of Newburg, Oregon and asking if they could put up signs with messages like “Don't Give Up” and “Your Mistakes Don't Define You”.
Wolff then started receiving messages from other people in the community wanting to buy the signs.Within a few days, Wolff had sold over 150 of the yard signs.That night,Wolff's husband created a website to sell the signs.
“Within a year, we had news media in Dallas, Boston, Massachusetts, and Portland cover our movement,” she added.By the fall of 2018, Wolff set up the Don't Give Up organisation for her signs.Since she planted her first sign two years ago, she has shipped the organisations messages of encouragement to all 50 US states and 26 countries in 6 languages.
With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, the messages that Wolff has received from sign owners are meaningful.One message from Frank reads: “I just had a woman knock on my door.She began to cry and thank me for the signs in my yard.Her son had tried to kill himself and these signs were in the yard the day they came home from the hospital.”
