Томас Алва Эдисон
Томас Алва Эдисон был одним из величайших американских изобретателей. Он родился в Милане, Огайо. Поскольку в школе у него были проблемы, родители забрали (took him out of school) его, и мать стала учить его дома. Когда ему было 12 лет, он начал зарабатывать на жизнь(earn his living), продавая газеты на железной дороге(as a railway newsboy).
Позже, когда ему было 22 года, он изобрел усовершенствованный телеграфный аппарат(an improved ticker-tape machine), с помощью которого можно было передавать информацию о ценах на Нью-Йоркском рынке. Деньги, которые он получил за это изобретение, помогли ему изобрести фонограф и мимеограф.
Его величайшим изобретением была лампа накаливания. В 1882 году он пустил в ход первую электростанцию.
Он был очень знаменит как изобретатель и за время своей жизни запатентовал более тысячи изобретений. Правительство Соединенных Штатов удостоило его высшей награды страны – специальной Почетной медалью Конгресса (a special Congressional Medal of Honor).
Он умер в 1931 году.
Мария Склодовская–Кюри
Мария Склодовская–Кюри родилась в Варшаве в 1867 году. В 1891 году она уехала учиться в Париж. Там она встретила Пьера Кюри и вышла за него замуж. Она изучала природу излучений урана (investigated the nature of uranium rays) и в 1898 году объявила о существовании новых мощных радиоактивных элементов в ураните. Ее муж бросил собственные исследования, чтобы помогать ей, и через несколько лет они объявили о существовании полония и радия. Эти два чистых (pure) элемента были выделены в 1902 году, но семейная пара отказалась патентовать свое открытие. В 1903 году они оба получили Нобелевскую премию по физике.
После смерти своего мужа Мария Склодовская–Кюри стала пофессором Сорбонского университета в Париже, а в 1911 году опять получила Нобелевскую премию. На этот раз премия была присуждена за открытия в химии, и она стала первым человеком, удостоенным Нобелевской премии дважды.
Она умерла в 1934 году, став жертвой радиоактивного излучения, которое она получила в своей лаборатории.
