Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times. Dozens of women have won the Nobel Prize, one of the highest honors in the world. Some women scientists never married, some worked with their husband, 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 of 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 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 Maria 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 with a man named Pierre Curie. She and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together. They received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 along with another scientist. Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Nobel Prize in 1911, this time in Chemistry. Marie Curie was one of the few women at the time that became famous as a scientist.
1.What does the author think of women scientists according to Paragraph 1?
A.They go through difficulties to be successful.
B.They cannot get the highest honors in the world.
C.They had better pay more attention to their families.
D.They have more opportunities to become successful.
2.Why did Mary fail to be famous for her discoveries of fossils?
A.Because she didn't want to be known to anyone.
B.Because they weren't worth studying.
C.Because nobody recognized them.
D.Because she sold them for money.
3.What can we know about Marie Curie?
A.She finished her college education in Poland.
B.She was the first woman to win two Nobel Prizes.
C.She won the first Nobel Prize before getting married.
D.She and her husband won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
4.What's the text mainly about?
A.Ancient discoveries of scientists.
B.Some stories of women scientists.
C.Successful marriages of women scientists.
D.Some women scientists winning the Nobel Prize.

本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了以玛丽·安宁和玛丽·居里为代表的女性科学家的故事。这些女性科学家为人类社会做出了很大贡献。
1.A 细节理解题。根据第一段末句It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.可知,在作者看来,女性成为成功的科学家是很难的。该句与A选项是同义表达。故选A。 B选项(她们不能得到世界上最高的荣誉)与第一段第二句所述观点相悖;C选项(她们最好多关注她们的家庭)、D选项(她们有更多成功的机会)均不符合第一段内容。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第三段末句She didn't become famous for her discoveries at that time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family.可知,她当时没有因为发现化石而出名是因为她经常卖掉化石来赚钱养家。故选D。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的They received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 along with another scientist. 和Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Nobel Prize in 1911,this time in Chemistry.可知,1903年,居里夫妇和另一位科学家一起获得了诺贝尔物理学奖,1911年,居里夫人成为第一个获得第二个诺贝尔奖的人,这次是化学奖。由此可知,她是第一位两次获得诺贝尔奖的女性。故选B。A选项(她在波兰完成了大学教育),第四段前两句交代了玛丽·居里因为不能在波兰上大学,所以才去了巴黎学习物理;C选项(她在结婚前获得了第一个诺贝尔奖),而第四段第四句和第五句交代了他们是先结了婚,然后和另一位科学家一起赢得了诺贝尔物理学奖;D选项(她和她的丈夫获得了诺贝尔化学奖)与第四段第六句所述内容不符。
4.B 主旨大意题。文章结构为总分结构,第一段提及了本文的中心话题:Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times...It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.(从古代开始,女性就一直在进行科学发现……女性很难成为成功的科学家。),然后讲述了玛丽·安宁和玛丽·居里的故事。由此可知文章的话题为“一些女性科学家的故事”。故选B。其中因为居里夫人获得了诺贝尔奖而使D选项具有干扰性,但是玛丽·安宁没有获诺贝尔奖,故排除D选项。
