After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich
man. However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel
preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two
weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people
who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five
awards: literature, physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added
in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the first awards ceremony. Nobel's original
legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum is used for
the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.

Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death, the awards
(gold medal, illuminated diploma, and money) are presented to the winners.
Sometimes politics plays an important role in the judges' decisions. Americans
have won numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes. No awards
were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II Some people
have won two prizes, but this is rare; others have shared their prizes.

1. When did the first award ceremony take place7

A. 1895 B . 1901 C. 1962 D. 1968
2. Why was the Nobel prize established?

A. To recognise worthwhile contributions to humanity.
B. To resolve political differences.

C. To honour the inventor of dynamite.
D. To spend money.

3. In which area have Americans received the most awards?

A. Literature B. Peace C. Economics D. Science
4. Which of the following statements is not true?

A. Awards vary in monetary value.

B. Ceremonies are held on December 10 to commemorate Nobel's invention.
C. Politics can play an important role in selecting the winners.

D. A few individuals have won two awards.
