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.
In Europe, nuclear energy has also begun to be looked on more favorably. Ⅵ. Summary(小结)

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.
