Madame Curie1867165438+10 was born in Warsaw, Poland on October 7th. Her real name is Maria, and she is the youngest daughter in the family.
Maria's father teaches physics in a middle school in Warsaw, and her mother is a weak housewife.
Maria's family lives on their father's meager income. They are the most ordinary families in Poland.
At that time, Poland was ruled by the Russian czar, Austria and Prussia. ...
In fact, Poland is no longer an independent country.
In Poland at that time, schools were not allowed to read or speak Polish.
The ruler hoped that Poles would forget their motherland and be willing to be slaves of the colonies.
However, how can one forget one's motherland?
In Maria's school, there is a caring female teacher, West Kolska. The female teacher often tells her students the national history of Poland in secret. She hopes her students will not forget their motherland.
Under the influence of the female teacher West Kolska, the students all hate the oppressors from the outside.
Once, Maria asked her partner at school angrily.
"The tsar to our Poland? Their land is so big, isn't it rich enough? "
Suddenly, the doorbell rang easily. ...
This is an early warning signal that the female teacher has made an appointment with the janitor and the czar inspector to come to the school to check the teaching.
People in the classroom immediately panicked. People hide Polish books in too many cooks, silently waiting for the arrival of the czar's inspector.
The headmaster walked into the classroom with the inspector sent by the tsar. The inspector looked at each student proudly with a smug smile in his eyes. ...
The inspector seemed to casually lift the lid of a table, but there were no Polish books in it.
The inspector called another student for questioning. This student is Maria. ...
I saw the inspector proudly ask Maria one by one.
"Who rules us?"
Maria fought back her anger and answered word for word.
"His Majesty Alexander II, Emperor of all Russia."
"That's more like it!"
The inspector left the classroom triumphantly. ...
The female teacher hugged Maria silently, while Maria wept bitterly. ...
Maria doesn't know her motherland. Why should foreigners rule?
The interests of the motherland are above everything else!
The faith of love made Maria study harder, and she vowed to be a useful person to society.
When Maria was eight years old, her sister died of illness.
Two years later, Maria's mother died because she was ill for a long time, and her family was very poor, so she had no money to treat her.
"Why did God take such a good sister and mother away?"
Maria's family is a traditional Catholic family, but since the death of her eldest sister and mother, Maria has never prayed to God again.
"God is unfair!"
Maria's father is not an enthusiastic Catholic, and he doesn't object to his little daughter's behavior.
Maria's father is honest, but he is persecuted by the school. Those who are inferior to him always crowd him out.
Although Maria's father is in a difficult situation, he still teaches his children to have ideals and love the motherland.
Father's words and deeds have a great influence on Maria. Although she doesn't know how to do things for her motherland in the future, she knows that she should study hard under any circumstances and don't forget your initiative.
Maria graduated from high school at the age of sixteen, but the Polish university did not accept girls, and the poverty at home could not make her study abroad.
Father advised Maria to get a job first, and then make plans for the future.
At that time, there was a secret "mobile university" in Warsaw, Poland, which was the activity center of progressive Polish intellectuals.
Maria was introduced by a female teacher and joined this secret organization, where she learned all kinds of scientific knowledge.
After listening to the lecture, the students of "Mobile University" will also teach others how to learn.
Maria often goes to the sewing factory to give lectures to female workers and find some Polish books for them to read.
Maria hopes that all Poles will not forget their motherland.
Maria's second sister, Bronya, is a good housewife, but she loves medicine and studies hard at night.
Maria knew that her second sister, Bronya, wanted to go to college, but poverty at home locked her out.
How painful it is for a person not to realize his dream!
Maria decided to go to a rich family for self-study and helped her second sister realize her dream of studying with her own efforts.
The second sister was moved to tears when she heard the decision of the younger sister. She happily picked up Maria and kept kissing her.
"Little sister, am I too selfish?"
"No, second sister, I am young, but you are over twenty."
My second sister Braun went to Paris, France to study, while Maria became a tutor.
Maria is very frugal. She never dares to spend a penny. She sent most of the money to her second sister.
In a blink of an eye, five years have passed. ...
In these five years, Maria has experienced a cold world and a warm and cold human feeling.
The indifference and contempt, selfishness and hypocrisy of the rich made Maria feel sick and helpless. ...
"I must work for the poor!"
Maria studies hard every day.
A few years later, my second sister Brown Adam became a doctor and got married. She immediately sent Maria to Paris to study.
However, Maria didn't want to leave her old father, so she decided to study in Poland for one year first.
In the summer of 189 1, Maria's family saved some money, bought a fourth-class ticket and lived together in Paris.
"Motherland, no matter where I am, you are in my heart forever."
Maria is determined to do something for her motherland.
Maria changed her name to Mary, and she was admitted to Sorbonne College of Paris University.
Mary dresses very simply and studies very hard. ...
She rented the attic for two weeks and only ate bread and tea every day.
Only books can be read, no matter how hard it is. ...
Mary devoted all her energy to the classroom and laboratory. Her favorite things are physics and math.
Mary often stays up reading until after midnight.
Winter in Paris is very cold. Mary doesn't want to worry her family. She had no money to buy a wood-burning stove, so she put on all her clothes to keep warm.
Long-term poverty and hard life made Mary seriously ill. She fainted in the classroom because of hunger.
Due to malnutrition, Mary suffered from severe anemia, and she recovered quickly under the careful care of her second sister, Braunia.
As soon as Mary, who had just recovered, returned to the attic, she plunged into the pile of books to study.
1893, Mary graduated with honors from the Department of Physics.
Mary wants to further study the magnetism of metals, but she has no room to install this equipment, which makes Mary very upset.
During this period, she met the French scientist pierre curie.
Although Madame Curie was not recognized by the French scientific community at that time, she had made several important discoveries in her scientific research.
Mary admired Curie's persistent scientific spirit, and Curie also appreciated Mary's love for science, so they walked into each other's lives.
They often do experiments together, go out for a walk and talk about life together.
Mary wants to work in Warsaw, Poland, but reality doesn't allow it. Madame Curie suggested that she stay and work in Paris, France.
Mary and Curie got married. They live a very simple life, but they are also very happy.
Mary became Madame Curie. Although they are poor, they are like-minded and happy.
Madame Curie not only studied science, but also managed housework and took care of her father-in-law. Her life is busy and full.
After two years of marriage, their daughter Allen came to this small family.
Mary went to work as soon as she recovered from childbirth.
At that time, physicist Bockeler discovered that uranium-containing salt would emit a ray that people had never known before. Mary is very interested in this scientific research.
This is a mysterious ray that people don't know, and the Curies decided to study it.
After several weeks of hard work, Madame Curie reached a preliminary conclusion.
"This radiation is characteristic of uranium atoms."
After many complicated experiments, the Curies discovered a radioactive substance from pitchblende in July 1898.
Madame Curie named this substance "polonium" in memory of her motherland Poland.
In February, the Curies discovered another radioactive element "Radium" in pitchblende.
The curies want to continue their research, but they have no money to buy pitchblende.
Difficulties can't scare a determined person. The Curies begged the scientists in Vienna and finally got a ton of asphalt residue.
There must be radium in these residues. ...
However, the Curies didn't even have a laboratory. They only have a shabby little house.
This shabby house was acquired by their repeated entreaties to the school.
The Curies used extremely simple tools to crush the residue and heat it. They have to endure the pungent smell every day, and the heavy work often makes them exhausted.
The experiment lasted four years. They made every effort and tried again and again, but they all failed.
The curies didn't lose heart, so they continued to do experiments. They believe that they will succeed.
At this time, Madame Curie's limbs ached, so his wife had to make a fire and add coal herself. ...
Curie endured the pain and sat and observed carefully. ...
In order to continue the experimental work, the Curies scrimped and saved every day and did not go to the theatre for several years.
Madame Curie will personally bathe her daughter Elon and take her to bed every day when she comes home.
Madame Curie loved her motherland, science, her husband and her children.
After numerous failures, the Curies finally extracted a kind of salt-like powder, which they carefully packed in a glass tube.
On this day, Madame Curie wanted to go to that shabby laboratory with her husband.
They came to the lab together. ...
"Don't light the lamp."
Madame Curie whispered to her husband ...
They pushed open the door and the shabby room became a temple. There is a kind of glass tube with the strongest light, which is "radium" that they spent four years trying to improve.
The curies were so happy that they didn't know what to do. They looked at it quietly with tears in their eyes. ...
"Radium" can penetrate the densest substances and destroy diseased cells, which is the bane of treating cancer and other malignant tumors.
The Curies turned down the opportunity to give lectures at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. They don't want to stop their research work because of their own interests.
They are all the most selfless scientists in the world.
The dilapidated laboratory often leaks water, and the Curies continue to work under such circumstances.
There is a vacancy for a chemistry professor at Sorbonne University in France, and Curie hopes to hold this position, so that the couple can have a good laboratory.
However, this vacancy was filled by an Amaga who was far less than Madame Curie.
Amaga is not good at business, but he can curry favor with local officials, so the doer always loses to the schemer.
The curies were extremely angry, but they were helpless in this situation!
The Curies don't want any medals, they just want a good laboratory.
It was suggested that the couple apply for a patent right to manufacture radium, but the Curies flatly refused.
"Radium is good for patients, and we should not use it for profit."
The curies were stubborn and naive, and they lost their rights.
1903, Solburn College awarded Madame Curie an honorary doctorate.
In June this year, the Curies went to the famous "Royal Society" in Britain to give a speech on "Radium".
People gave the Curies a gold medal and gave it to their daughter as a toy.
Mr. and Mrs. Curie are a pair of scientists who don't eat human fireworks. ...
1906 On the evening of April19, Curie attended a rally and it rained heavily. What was Curie thinking when he was walking? ...
He walked from one side of the road to the other without looking up. ...
Just then, a carriage came quickly. ...
The driver shouted, but it was too late. ...
The carriage passed Madame Curie and the wheels ran over Madame Curie's head. ...
A great scientist died like this!
"Didn't you pay attention when you walked? What are you thinking, son? "
Curie's father couldn't help feeling sad. He was muttering to himself. ...
The beloved husband ended his life in this way. Madame Curie could not bear such great grief. She cried and ran to the hospital to see her husband for the last time.
The sad Madame Curie had little courage to live. ...
"People have to work no matter what happens."
Madame Curie remembered what her husband had said before his death, and she resolutely decided to continue her husband's unfinished business.
Madame Curie slowly stepped onto the platform, the first female teacher of Paris University.
After Madame Curie's death, Madame Curie gave the radium they cultivated together to the cancer treatment laboratory for free.
These radium were worth at least one million gold francs at that time.
Madame Curie has only dedication in her heart, but no personal interests or money ideas.
Science should belong to all mankind. ...
Oh, a naive and selfless scientist!
Madame Curie often teaches children to be upright people. Elon, the eldest daughter, and Eve, the second daughter, have the same strong and brave work attitude as their parents.
Madame Curie refused the "Cross of Honor" awarded to her by France, and she didn't notice everyone's honor in her cohabitation.
Madame Curie published many metal papers on radium salt analysis, and her talent attracted worldwide attention.
But Madame Curie was not elected as an academician of the Academy of Sciences because she was a woman.
Madame Curie never cared about these titles. She only loves her own scientific research.
1914 In July, the Radium Institute building in Paris was completed, and Madame Curie finally had a real laboratory.
This was Curie's greatest wish before his death. ...
Madame Curie looked at the laboratory and was filled with emotion. ...
Soon after, World War I broke out and German troops occupied Poland.
In France, many people in the laboratory went to the front, while Madame Curie was still studying X-ray equipment.
Madame Curie arranged many mobile "X-ray cars", which the soldiers affectionately called "Little Curie".
The long war is finally over. ...
Madame Curie, who is 5 1 year old, has returned to the Institute of Radium Science. Long-term overwork exhausted her physically and mentally, but Madame Curie remained awake and worked hard to train students.
She is like a candle, illuminating others and burning herself!
The eldest daughter, Elon, inherited her parents' career and has been working with her mother as an assistant and studying science together since 19 18.
One day in May, a lady meloni from new york visited Madame Curie.
Mrs. meloni is an upright and kind female journalist. ...
Madame Curie gave her a rare interview. When Mrs. meloni asked her what she needed most now, Madame Curie surprised the female reporters one by one.
"I really want to buy a gram of radium to continue my research, but I can't afford it myself, it's too expensive!"
As we all know, "radium" was discovered by the Curies, but they didn't apply for patented technology, so some capitalists took advantage.
Those capitalists made a fortune with the "radium" discovered by the Curie couple, but refused to send some "radium" to Madame Curie.
Naive scientists never know how to protect their own interests.
The world is a very realistic society, and simple and kind people will always stumble in front of reality.
"Madam, you are really a great person!"
Under the active promotion of Madame meloni, a committee was organized to raise money for buying radium, and Madame Curie had the opportunity to continue her research.
Decades of research on radioactive substances destroyed Madame Curie's blood. She has pernicious anemia, and even the doctors are at a loss.
1934 On July 4th, Madame Curie died, and all her brothers and sisters came to attend the funeral.
They scattered Polish soil on Madame Curie's grave. ...
You can't go back to your hometown if you are alive, but you must go back to your hometown if you die.
Madame Curie always wanted to return to her native Poland, but unfortunately she could never realize this wish.
Poland, my dearest motherland!
The naive and persistent Madame Curie silently guarded her motherland in the sky.
