N: yes,i read books about her many times,i also admire her attitude,she is so hard working,and kind for poor student...she has a warm heart,but...it's a shame that i hate science...so im not going to be a scientist like her

W: what did she do for poor student , teach them? or help them to have a good enviroment to study?

N: cos there are lots of people who doesnt have money to go to school,so she spent money to buy table,chair and books for the children,teach them for ftee she is the glory of women,i wish i could do someting for poor people

N: they did lots of research to look for new elment...they found it in asphalt after they found polonium (Po) ..they found another radioactive element,it's much stronger,they did lots of research on mineral,and analyze them again and again..finally ,they found radium

After discovery po and radium, they have faced the major problem, how is to refine the pure radium and pure po, proved that knows these two kind of new elements to the common people the existence? They must have the large amount fund purchase massive pitchblende and many other minerals and the appliance, can refine the radium and po. They ask the human in various countries to help

finally obtains the Austrian Government and the Vienna academy of science's assistance, by bought inexpensive had been considered at that time that will refine the uranium later not to have the useful pitchblende residual, in 1898 to 1902 these four years, Maria was not only the scholar, was also the technician she fought bravely with every single kilogram pitchblend

w: there's a saying that mrs,curie has many disease when she was young , did it have relation to her research?

N:of course,she stays in her laboratory all day,and she has to touch the radioactive elements for long time,it did hurt her health a lot (she research the element without any protection)

W: so, she sacrifice her health to do the research. she is really a great women int the world.

N: yes,totally agree!!

W: so franklin and mrs. curie are two important people to find or invent something to let our live more convenience, we should proud of them. hows your weekend?
