Read these words from marie curie:
during a particularly rigorous winter, it was not unusual for the water to freeze in the basin in the night; to be able to sleep i was obliged to pile all my clothes on the bedcovers. in the same room i prepared my meals with the aid of an alcohol lamp and a few kitchen utensils. these meals were often reduced to bread with a cup of chocolate, eggs or fruit. which of the following details from the historical fiction piece "marie curie and the discovery of radioactivity" supports marie's factual statement? when marie arrived in paris in 1891, she studied physics at the greatest university in europe, the sorbonne. but how poor she was! when she was growing up in russian-occupied poland, even to study science was forbidden. a moment later, people passing by the school of physics and chemistry were treated to a sight not often seen on the fashionable streets of paris in the early 1900s: a bareheaded young woman in a laboratory smock, ripping eagerly into the pile of heavy sacks and burying her hands in . . dirt? no one, the curies included, had ever seen this element. still, the husband-and-wife team had given it a name: radium.

No one, the Curies included, had ever seen this element. Still, the husband-and-wife team had given it a name: radium.

The details from the historical fiction piece "Marie Curie and the Discovery of Radioactivity" that support Marie's factual statement are:

In the winter, it was so cold that she emptied her closet, piling the clothes on the bed so she'd be warm enough to sleep.

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the options to answer, here are the options:

A) She also met the man who soon became her husband—Pierre Curie, a brilliant young physicist as promising (and poor) as Marie.

B) A moment later, people passing by the School of Physics and Chemistry were treated to a sight not often seen on the fashionable streets of Paris in the early 1900s: a bareheaded young woman in a laboratory smock, ripping eagerly into the pile of heavy sacks and burying her hands in . . . dirt?

C) In the winter, it was so cold that she emptied her closet, piling the clothes on the bed so she'd be warm enough to sleep.

D) No one, the Curies included, had ever seen this element. Still, the husband-and-wife team had given it a name: radium.

The factual statement does not focus on the discoveries of Marie Curie, it focuses on the kind of life and routine that she used to have when she was younger, and the techniques she needed to apply to keep warm, all this is presented with different words as a support sentence in the third given option.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
