sample writing Marie Curie

Marie Curie was known to the world as a physicist and chemist. She was born in 1867 in Poland. When she was 24, she was admitted into the University of Paris.

After graduation, she was devoted to scientific researches. She discovered radium and polonium in 1898, and she was given the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics for her discovery. Eight years later, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Unfortunately, she died of a disease caused by radioactive materials at the age of 67.

In my view, she is a brilliant scientist and I respect her for her hard work. Step 4
