Several of their contributions throughout history are even more than men's contributions. Our list of the most famous female scientists below are organized in order of popularity so you can read about the advancements that they made. 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 Jane Goodall 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 her 45-year study on the social lives of these animals in Tanzania. Rita Levi-Montalcini (1909-2012) Famous For: Nerve growth studies Rita Levi-Montalcini was a neurologist (神经病学家)who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1986 for her findings in Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). She was the first Nobel prize winner to live past her 100th birthday. Lise Meitner (1878-1968) Famous For: Work on radioactivity and nuclear physics Lise Meitner was a key member of a group that discovered nuclear fission (裂变). One of her colleagues, Otto Hahn, was given the Noble Prize for this work. That Meitner didn't get the award is considered to be a huge error by the Nobel committee. 1. Who is still contributing to the world? A. Marie Curie. B. Jane Goodall. C. Rita Levi-Montalcini. D. Lise Meitner. 2. What did Rita Levi-Montalcini reseach on?

Take, for example, the disagreement about his ___31___. The Spanish say he was from Spain, and the Italians claim he was from Italy. There is, in fact, some ___32___ that he was born in 1451 in Genoa, which is now part of Italy. Columbus became a sailor at an early age and had made journeys as far as Iceland and Guinea before he made his famous voyage in 1482. Contrary to popular ___33___. Columbus didn?t sail to the Americas in order to find out whether the Earth was round: at the end of the 15th century almost everyone knew it was round. We do know that he sailed in part to fulfill a religious quest: he saw journeys as a fulfillment of a divine（神圣的）plan for his life. Of course, the other ___34___ known reason for this voyage was that Columbus was looking for a new route to the Spice Islands (now part of Indonesia), and he believed he could reach them by sailing west rather than east. The discovery of the New World was therefore a(n) ___35___ case of “serendipity”（机缘凑巧）. In 1492, when he unexpectedly discovered the Americas, he had been traveling for five weeks and has sailed for 3,000 miles. He thought he had arrived in the East Indies. Columbus left on the voyage of discovery from the south of Spain, with a(n) ___36___ made up mainly of experienced sailors from the area. He made two ___37___ voyages before the end of the century, taking Europeans across to the new lands. On his third voyage in 1498, he also took women to the New World. This third voyage was not a happy one for Columbus. The settlers ___38___ against him, and he was unable to send a lot of gold back, so he was arrested and returned to Spain in chains. However, the King and Queen soon apologized, saying there had been a mistake, and Columbus was freed. By this time, 1500, Columbus was not a well man and he died quietly at the age of 55 in Valladolid, Spain, on May 20, 1506, in his own apartment ___39___ by family and friends. He was a(n) ___40___ rich man at the time of his death. III. Reading Comprehension Section A Agree to Disagree In a world of 6.5 million opinionated people, arguments are sure to happen. Many
