A

    You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 

years?

Jane Addams（1860-1935）

Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. 

Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community（社区） by 　　　

creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became 

the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Rachel Carson（1907-1964）

If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.Her popular 

1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of 

chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes and oceans.

Sandra Day O'Connor（1930-present）

When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became Arizona state senator（参议员）and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 yearson the top court.

Rosa Parks（1913-2005）

On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her 

seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. "The only tired I was, was tired of giving in," said Parks.
