　　s1：i want a try.madam curie is my heroine.she is a french professor of physics.she was born in poland in 1867.in 1891 she went to study in paris university because at that time women were not admitted to universities in poland.when she was studying in paris，she lived a poor life，but she worked very hard.in 1895 she married pierre curie，and then they worked together on the research into radioactive matter.they discovered two kinds of radioactive matter—polonium and radium.in 1904 she and her husband received a nobel prize for physics.after mr curie died in 1906，she went on with her research.she received a second nobel prize for chemistry in 1911，so she became the first scientist in the world to win two nobel prizes.
