Have you mastered the expressions of prizes, awards and other English?
"What you get on paper is always shallow, and you must practice it by knowing this." Students should apply it more in life and study. Only by applying knowledge to practice can these words be remembered more firmly.
For example, when you win an award for your excellent competition or academic performance, you can say loudly: "I won the prize." You can also say: "They awarded the prize to me." Do you think learning English has become simple in applying English in a specific context?
Knowledge expansion
With the announcement of the 2019 Nobel Prize, we not only understand the relevant English expressions, but also know the great inventions and contributions in some fields, but do you know the origin of the Nobel Prize?
Nobel Prize was created by Nobel on November 27, 1895, donating all its property to establish a fund, and using interest as a bonus every year to "the person who has made the greatest contribution to mankind in a year." According to his will, the Swedish government established the " Nobel Foundation " in the same year, which was responsible for awarding the annual interest of the fund in five parts, and the Literature Prize is one of them.
The five awards originally established by Alfred Nobel in his will are the Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature and Peace Prizes, which are not included in the Economics Prize. In 1968, on the 300th anniversary of its establishment, the Swedish National Bank donated a large amount of funds to the Nobel Fund and added the "Swedish National Bank commemorating the Nobel Prize for Economic Sciences". The award was first awarded in 1969 and announced together with the other five awards. People are used to call it the Nobel Prize for Economics.
Finally, while congratulating the winners of the Nobel Prize, we look forward to the announcement of the subsequent awards.
