三、阅读理解

Science has been shaped by many people who refused to give up despite facing enormous obstacles. Here are three inspiring stories.

Marie Curie was a scientist who discovered radium. She faced many challenges as a woman in a male-dominated field. She was not allowed to study at the University of Warsaw because she was female, so she moved to Paris to continue her education. She worked in a cold, damp shed for four years to isolate radium. She overcame poverty, sexism and a lack of resources. Her work earned her two Nobel Prizes.

Galileo Galilei was an Italian astronomer who supported the theory that the Earth moves around the sun. This went against the teachings of the Church at the time. He was put on trial and forced to renounce his ideas. However, he continued his research in secret. His work eventually became the foundation of modern astronomy.

Charles Darwin spent years developing his theory of evolution. He faced fierce criticism from religious groups and the scientific community. Many people refused to accept his ideas.
