Marie Curie
1.Where did Marie Curie grow up?
Marie Curie grew up in Warsaw, Poland where she was born on November 7, 1867.
Her birth name was Maria Sklodowska, but her family called her Manya. Her parents
were both teachers. Her dad taught math and physics, and her mom was headmistress
at a girl's school. Marie was the youngest of five children.
Growing up the child of two teachers, Marie was taught to read and write early. She
was a very bright child and did well in school. She had a sharp memory and worked
hard on her studies.
[…]
During the early years of her life, Marie Curie had to face several difficulties on
financial grounds. The sudden deaths of Maria's eldest sister and her mother added
to the difficulties. Maria was strong-willed and determined to obtain an education.
She did not let her personal losses affect her studies. She graduated from a female
gymnasium in 1883 and spent the following year with her relatives.
2.Nobel Prizes
In 1903, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Marie and Pierre Curie as well
as Henri Becquerel for their work in radiation. Marie became the first woman to be
awarded the prize.
In 1911 Marie won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering the two elements,
polonium and radium. She was the first person to be awarded two Nobel Prizes.
Marie became very famous. Scientists came from around the world to study
radioactivity with Marie. Soon after, doctors found that radiology could help with
curing cancer.

Questions 17 - 20 refer to the following passage:
The butterfly life cycle
We all love butterflies for their beautiful, brightly-coloured wings. But did you know
that these fab flyers begin life as something completely different? As they grow, they
undergo one seriously terrific transformation – a process known as “metamorphosis“.
Stage 1: the egg
It all starts when a female butterfly lays her eggs, usually on leaves or stems of plants.
Inside these tiny eggs, caterpillars grow. Depending on the species, the eggs can vary
in shape and texture – they can be round, oval or cylindrical, and smooth, bumpy or
wrinkled. The time it takes for the eggs to hatch can also vary – in some species,
they will hatch within a few weeks and in others they will only hatch once the
weather is warm enough.
Stage 2: the caterpillar
Once ready, the caterpillar leaves its egg home and enters the big outside world! And
these little critters have one serious appetite – they actually eat their way out of the
egg and immediately start chomping on the leaves of the host plant. During this stage,
they shed their skin four or five times – as the caterpillar grows, its skin becomes
too tight and splits open, revealing a new, larger skin underneath. A fully grown
caterpillar can be over 100 times larger than when it emerged from its egg.
Stage 3: the pupa
Once fully grown, the caterpillar forms itself into a “pupa” (or chrysalis) – a kind of
vessel in which the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. They usually do this on twigs

 30 ĐỀ KIỂM TRA NĂNG LỰC TIẾNG ANH LUYỆN THI VÀO LỚP 6 TRẦN THỊ THANH XUÂN (CHỦ BIÊN)

or safe, hidden areas around the host plant. The “pupa” stage may last a few weeks
to several months depending on the species. During this time, a hardened case forms
around the pupa to protect it from predators and extreme weather conditions. And
inside, the tissue, limbs and organs of the caterpillar transform. The result? A
wonderful winged butterfly!
Stage 4: the butterfly
Once the butterfly is ready to emerge, the case around the pupa splits open. But it’s
not time for take off just yet, as the wings are at first wet, soft and wrinkled against
its body. The butterfly waits for its wings to dry, and pumps a liquid called
hemolymph into them so that they become big and strong. Once fit for flight, this
brilliant bug then takes to the air in search for flowers to feed on and for other
butterflies to mate with. And that’s the cycle complete – and ready to start all over
again
