Women are equally responsible for the growth of a free, modern society. Here’s a look at some outstanding
women who made great contributions to world history.
Maria Sibylla Merian
Today, children can explain how a caterpillar (毛毛虫) turns into a butterfly (蝴蝶). But there was a time
when no one knew this --not even scientists. Thanks to Maria Sibylla Merian, we know the truth about these
beautiful winged insects. Merian was fascinated by insects, and she began collecting, studying, and drawing them
when she was as young as 13. It was through her study of caterpillars that she discovered the truth about their life
cycles.
Beryl Markham
Beryl Markham was quite incredible in not just aviation (航空) but several other industries, including horse
racing. In 1936, at age 33, Markham became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic alone from the east to the
west, nonstop. The pilot played a role in the classic best-selling novel and film, Out of Africa, and had many
biographies penned about her talents and life.
Madam C. J. Walker
Madam C J. Walker developed a condition that caused her to lose her hair, and with it, an interest in hair care.
She began working for black hair care entrepreneur (企业家) Annie Turnbo Malone. Eventually, Walker began
making and marketing her own hair care products designed for African-American women. Her company developed
into the successful Madam C.J. Walker Manufacturing Company. She is widely recognized as America’s first
black female self-made millionaire.
Hedy Lamarr
You might know Hedy Lamarr from the silver screen; she starred in many films. But her film career is far from
her only achievement; she was also a brilliant inventor. In 1942, she received a patent for an invention that could
change radio signal frequencies. It paved the way for much of the wireless technology we use today.
1.Who had a lot of enthusiasm for the study of insects?
A.Hedy Lamarr B.Beryl Markham
资料整理【淘宝店铺:向阳百分百】C.Madam C.J. Walker D.Maria Sibylla Merian
2.What made Madam C.J. Walker begin to focus on the hair care?
A.Her losing her hair. B.A type of hair care product.
