Marie Curie(1867-1934)

Famous For:Work on radioactivity

Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize and the only woman to win this award in two fields: Physics and Chemistry.She discovered polonium and radium and her work helped with the creation of X-rays.

Jane Goodall(1934)

Famous For:Primate(灵长类)studies

JaneGoodall is known world-wide for her groundbreaking studies on primates.She is considered as the top

expert on chimps in the world and is perhaps best known for her45-year study on the social lives of theseanimals in Tanzania.

Lise Meitner(1878-1968)

Knowing more about science than the average middle student,Caroline Crouchley,13,of Garden City is a finalist in the20193M Young Scientist Challenge.The annual competition tasks students in grades fifth to eighth with making a video tracing a unique solution to an everyday problem.Crouchley is one of10finalists chosen out of thousandsof students this year.

After watching her brother enter the competition several years ago,Crouchley,who has always loved science, couldn’ｔ

wait for her turn.In May,she submitted a two-minute video about her idea to the organizer to create

well as the Long Island Railroad’ｓ

Crouchley said.In “Maybe o ne day,we can have better technology and find a way to help the environment,”

her video,Crouchley explains that the use of fossil fuels let out by public transportation is a major cause of environmental problems.She believes technology that reducesthe need for a diesel(柴油)engine or an electric motor is the solution.To show her idea in action,she designed a new type of train.

Crouchley created a computerized system design model for her train using an engineering program called Autodesk Inventor.She brought the train to life using a3D printer,magnets(磁铁)and a solar-powered air compressor(压缩机).Crouchley said it took a long time to develop her ideas and make the video.She had to work under deadlines,too,which she said was stressful.

I had never been more anxious in my life.I had just spent the last three endlesshours trying to get to the airport so that I could travel home.Now,as I watched the bus driver set my luggage on the airport sidewalk,I realized that my anxiety had only just begun.

This was my first visit alone to the international terminal of the airport,and nothing was familiar.I couldn’ｔmake senseof any of the signs.Where was the check-in counter?Where should I take my luggage?I had no idea where to go,feeling as if I were deaf and blind and stupid.I began to panic.What time was it?Where was my plane?

I had to find help becauseI couldn’ｔ

I tried to ask a passing businessman for help,but my words all came out wrong.He just frowned and walked

even remember how to away.What had happened?I had been in this country for a whole semester,and I couldn’ｔ

ask for directions.This was awful!Another bus arrived at the terminal,and the passengerscame out carrying all sorts of luggage.Here was my chance!I could follow them to the right place,and I would not have to say a word.

I dragged my enormous suitcase behind me and followed the group.We finally reached the elevators.Oh,no! They all fit in it,but there was not enough room for me.I watched in despair as the elevator doors closed.I was abandoned again!I had no idea what to do next.I got on the elevator when it returned and stared at all the buttons. Which one could it be?I pressedbutton3,becauseI thought I saw those passengerspressed3,though it was no more than a quick glance.The elevator slowly climbed up to the third floor and came to a stop.There were no check-in counters!I looked around shyly,only to find an elderly man standing at the corner.He was an airport employee.

Paragraph1:Tears formed in my eyesas I saw the empty hall and realized that I would miss my plane.

Paragraph2:When I turned to thank him for all his help,he was gone.
