It was in Paris that Marie met and married Pierre Curie,a young scientist who had already won respect.

Together they made their experiments in an old wooden house that was too cold and damp(潮湿的)for their health.They knew that some elements(元素)in the world gave off a strange power that could go through other objects.They found more of this power in some elements than in others,which made them believe that it must be a new element itself.

Four years they tried experiments to separate this powerful new element.Then they found something which they called radium(镭).Its power was very much greater than the power contained(包含)in other elements.

The Curies were given the Nobel Prize for their great discovery,but they were too ill to go to Stockholm themselves to receive it.They used the money for further experiments on the uses of radium.They found it could be used in treating diseases.
