Part I How it works (The mechanism of nuclear energy production)
Nuclear energy is produced when the nucleus of an uranium atom is hit by a neutron traveling at the right speed, which is called nuclear fission. Part II Discovery and the birth of an industry
Nuclear energy produced by nuclear fission was recognized in the late 1930s. In the 1940s, nuclear energy was used for building atomic bombs. In the 1950s, it began to be used for a peaceful purpose. But starting from the mid-1960s, when larger and larger nuclear power plants began to be built, serious problems occurred, such as ill-management and costs. Part III Safety issues
The core melt-down at Three Mile Island 2 in 1979 and the explosion and fire at Chernobyl 3 in 1986 put the safety issues of nuclear energy in the spotlight. Part IV Recent developments
In the U.S., nuclear reactors are increasing their output; nuclear power has gained new adherents, including some environmentalists because it plays a significant role in cutting emissions.

Author- D. H. Lawrence(1885-1930)
an English novelist, poet, playwright, literary critic and painter
D. H. Lawrence was born in Easterwood, Nottinghamshire(诺丁汉郡). His father was a barely literate miner, and his mother was a middle-class woman and a school teacher, and had a deep influence upon his life.
After receiving education at local schools and at Nottingham University College, Lawrence worked for a time as a teacher. In the meantime, he began to write and publish literary works.
In March, 1912 Lawrence met Frieda Weekley , a German noblewoman and the wife of a professor at Nottingham University. He was to share the rest of his life with her.They fell in love, eloped to Europe, and were married in 1914 when she was divorced by her husband.
During the year from 1912 to 1914, because of militarism, Lawrence was arrested and accused of being a British spy.
After the experience of the war years, Lawrence began what he termed his ‘savage pilgrimage’, a time of voluntary exile(背井离乡). He escaped from England and with his wife spent the remainder of his life traveling.
He died of tuberculosis(肺结核) in a sanatorium in southern France at the age of 44. Novels

The opening paragraphs of story are written in a style is similar to that of a fairy tale. Instead of ―once upon a time,‖ Lawrence begins with ―There was a woman who was beautiful, who started with all the advantages, yet she had no luck.‖ This is a conscious attempt on the part of the author to use the traditional oral storytelling technique.
This story also combines the supernatural elements of a fable, mainly Paul‘s ability to ―know‖ the winners just by riding his rocking horse, with the serious themes 2)Use of symbolism 3) Use of irony 3. summary of the story
The story describes a young middle-class English mother who \outwardly successful, she is haunted by a sense of failure;
The family?s lifestyle exceeds its income and unspoken anxiety about money permeates(弥漫、充满) the household. Her children, a son Paul and his two sisters, sense this anxiety, and Paul even claims he can hear the house \must be more money.
Paul tells his Uncle Oscar Cresswell about betting on horse races with Bassett, the gardener. He's been placing bets using his pocket money and has won and saved three hundred twenty pounds. He says sometimes he is \of a winner for an upcoming race, and the horses he names do in fact win. Uncle Oscar and Bassett both place large bets on the horses Paul names.
After further winning, Paul and Oscar arrange to give the mother a gift of five thousand pounds, but the gift only lets her spend more.
Disappointed, Paul tries harder than ever to be ―lucky‖. As the Derby（马赛名） approaches, Paul is determined to learn the winner.
His mother rushes home from a party and discovers his secret. He has been spending hours riding his rocking horse, sometimes all night long, until he ―gets there‖, into a clairvoyant(可以预知未来的) state where he can be sure of the winner's name.
Paul remains ill through the day of the Derby. Informed by Cresswell, Bassett has placed Paul's bet on Malabar, at fourteen to one. He is informed by Bassett that he now has 80,000 pounds,
The boy dies in the night and his mother hears her brother say, ―My God, Hester, you‘re eighty-odd thousand to the good（净赚）, and a poor devil of a son to the bad（亏损）. But, poor devil, poor devil, he‘s best gone out of a life where he rides his rocking horse to find a winner.‖ 4. Character Analysis
