Every morning, you will see a tottering old woman appear in the European institute of brain, which was on the outskirts of Rome. Every afternoon, she would appear again in African women's education foundation, which was in the heart of the city. You can't imagine that the old woman was American Italian female cytologist Rita Levi-Montalcini Who was the winner of 1986 Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine. Now, she is 101 years old, but she still insists on working hard. Take a look at another old woman's life. One on day in October 2009, the weather was fine as usual, and 76 - year - old American Indiana university professor Elinor Ostrom quietly came to her office at 9 o’clock, and then she got down to do teach students for two hours, but she couldn’t spare the time to listen to those TV reporters. The reason why the reporters were eager to interview her was that Elinor Ostrom was awarded the 2009 Nobel Prize in Economics yesterday and she was the only female who won the award, which had been set up for decades. Turn the clock back, in October 1997, Chinese American scientist Stephen Chu won the Nobel Prize in physics because he invented the method of cooling and capturing atoms by laser. On that day he heard that he won the prize, he was still calm and taught his students as usual. He said: "when I think of more outstanding scientists, particularly those who are stronger than me, but don’t get the award, I naturally should not be proud of myself. It is just a matter of good luck for me.” Similarly, in 1973, Patrick white was declared to ion the Nobel Prize for literature and became the first and only Nobel Prize winner in Australian history so far. When he heard the news on his own farm, he just smiled, waved his hand and said: "the Nobel Prize for literature will not make my life different." Then he carried fishing rod to fish, which made a pile of reporters astonished. Having gone this far, we can not help thinking of Madame Curie, the great scientist at the beginning of last century. So far she is the only female scientist who has won the Nobel Prize twice, However, she was still tranquil as before and engaged in the job at hand. What’s more, she even took heir gold medal as toys and gave them to children. Einstein said, "Among all the celebrities I know, Madame Curie is the only person who isn’t overturned by reputation," "she is a statue which won’t be corroded by honor. We also finally understand that wreaths and applause are superficial, and honor and wealth are also nothing. In fact, the Nobel Prize is actually so silent.
