Read the passage and then do the tasks that follow.
Marie Curie was bom in Warsaw on November 7th, 1867. She received general education in local schools and some scientific training from her father.
As a brilliant and mature student, Marie harboured the dream of a scientific career, which was impossible for a woman at that time. To save money for a study tour abroad, she had to work as a private tutor, and her studies were interrupted.
Finally in 1891, Marie, with very little money to live on, went to Paris to realise her dream at the Sorbonne. In spite of her difficult living conditions, she worked extremely hard. She earned a degree in Physics with Hying colours, and went on to take another degree in Mathematics. She met Pierre Curie in the School of Physics in 1894 and a year later they got married. From then on, they worked together on their research. In 1903, Marie became the first woman to receive a PhD from the Sorbonne.
After the tragic death of Pierre Curie in 1906, she took up the position which her husband had obtained at the Sorbonne. Thus, she was the first woman in France to be a university professor. Soon after, she was awarded a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for determining the atomic weight of radium. But her real joy was ‘‘easing human suffering”. The founding of the Radium Institute in 1914 made her humanitarian wish come true.
Dịch bài:
Marie Curie sinh ở Warsaw vào ngày 7 tháng 11 năm 1867. Bà nhận được nền giáo dục phổ thông ở các trường địa phương và sự rèn luyện về khoa học từ người cha.
Là một sinh viên lỗi lạc và trưởng thành, bà ôm ấp giấc mơ làm một nghề về khoa học, điều đó không thể được cho một phụ nữ vào thời của bà. Để dành tiền cho chuyến du học ở nước ngoài, bà phải làm giáo viên dạy kèm riêng và việc học của bà bị gián đoạn.
Cuối cùng vào năm 1891. với số liền ít ỏi để sống. Marie đến Pa-ri để thực hiện giấc mơ của mình tại Đại học Sorbonne. Dù điều kiện sống khó khăn, bà làm việc vô cùng cần cù. Bà đạt được một văn bằng Vật lý với điểm rất cao và tiếp tục một văn bằng nữa về Toán học. Bà gặp Pierre Curie ở Trường Vật lý năm 1894 và năm sau họ cưới nhau. Từ đó trở đi, họ làm việc chung với nhau trong công việc nghiên cứu. Năm 1903, Marie trở thành người phụ nữ đầu tiên nhận bằng tiến sĩ ở Đại học Sorbonne.
Sau cái chết bi thảm của Pierre Curie năm 1906, bà đảm trách vị trí chồng bà đã đạt được ở Sorbonne. Như thế bà là phụ nữ đầu tiên là giáo sư đại học ở Pháp. Chẳng bao lâu sau đó, bà được nhận Giải Nobel Hóa học về xác định trọng lượng nguyên tử của chất Ra-đi. Nhưng niềm vui thật sự của bà là "làm giảm đi đau khổ của con người". Việc thành lập Viện Ra-đi năm 1914 làm giấc mơ nhân đạo của bà trở thành sự thật.
