Pierre and Marie Curie

(1859-1906 and 1867-1934)

A lot of people think that Marie Curie was French. But she was Polish-she was born in Warsaw and her name was Marja Sklodovska. When she was 24, she went to university in Paris and in 1895 she married Pierre Curie. Pierre was French. Marie and Pierre were scientists and together they were a great scientific team. They studied radium. They worked hard but they were very poor. They were teachers during the day and studied at night. They didn’t have a radium laboratory; they worked in a terrible old room. Then in 1903 they won the Nobel Prize for Physics and they had their first laboratory. Pierre was a professor at the University of Paris. But three years later, in 1906 he died in a street accident. Marrie was the first woman professor in France and in 1911 she won another Nobel Prize – this time for Chemistry. She died in 1934 when she was 67.

The Invention Of Umbrellas

It seems natural to open an umbrella when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented for protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun. Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. The first people to use it were probably the Chinese in the eleventh century B.C. The umbrella spread to ancient Egypt and Babylon. At that time it was a symbol of honor and authority, the umbrella was only for royalty or by those in high offices.

It is believed that the first people to use the umbrella as protection against rain were the ancient Romans.

During the Middle Ages,1100-1500 AD in Europe, the use of the umbrella disappeared completely. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. By 1680, the umbrella was used in France and later in England.

By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain in most of Europe and started to become popular worldwide. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time; however, it wasn't until the twentieth century that umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.
