TODAY’s key word is Nobel
Nobel 诺贝尔
Nobel in today’s programme is the name of a Swedish chemist. He is remembered for his invention of dynamite(炸药) and for the bequest(遗赠) that created the Nobel prizes。
Nobel Prize
诺贝尔奖
Here is an example:
Chinese scientist Tu Youyou wins the 2015 Nobel Prize in Medicine.
说到诺贝尔奖,想必大家最近都有所耳闻。(上期节目我们提到: 我天朝药学家--屠呦呦获得了诺贝尔奖。)
But do you know what exactly is the Nobel Prize and Who is Nobel?
今天的节目我们就一起来聊聊诺贝尔奖的前世今生。
First of all, Nobel was a man。他是化学家,工程师,发明家,更是一位有钱的化学家,工程师,发明家。他才是真正的“霸道总裁”。他在欧美等五大洲20个国家开设了约100家公司和工厂。
He can speak fluently English, French, German, Russian and other languages. He traveled and studied in Sweden, Russia, the United States and France when he was young.
作为霸道总裁的标配,女盆友人家是不缺的,但他一生未娶,三段爱情一个早逝,一个无缘,一个负心说来也是心酸。
但“总裁”爷爷的事业那是如日中天,蒸蒸日上。
在他355项的专利发明中,最有名气的就是炸药了!准确的说是硝化甘油炸药。
He was the inventor of dynamite(炸药).炸药为他带了的不仅仅是巨大的财富,还有铺天盖地的批评。
在他的弟弟死于一场爆炸事故后,一篇法国报纸这样写道“Dr. Alfred Nobel, who became rich by finding 1 ways to kill more people faster than ever before, died yesterday."这让诺贝尔感慨良多。
Alfred was disappointed(失望) with what he read and concerned with how he would be remembered.”
于是,他在第三份也是最后一份遗嘱上交代了设立诺贝尔奖的事情。于是,就有了今天的诺贝尔奖。一共五个奖项。
Outstanding contributions for humanity 2 in chemistry, literature, peace, physics, physiology 3 or medicine。(物理、化学、生理或医学、文学、和平五个奖项)
而这次屠呦呦获得的就是其中的,生理或医学奖。
n.发现,发现物;调查的结果
- The finding makes some sense.该发现具有一定的意义。
- That's an encouraging finding.这是一个鼓舞人心的发现。
n.人类,[总称]人(性),人道[pl.]人文学科
- Such an act is a disgrace to humanity.这种行为是人类的耻辱。
- We should treat animals with humanity.我们应该以仁慈之心对待动物。
n.生理学,生理机能
- He bought a book about physiology.他买了一本生理学方面的书。
- He was awarded the Nobel Prize for achievements in physiology.他因生理学方面的建树而被授予诺贝尔奖。
