  Dịch bài

  Sau khi phát minh ra thuốc nổ, Alfred Nobel, sinh ra ở Thụy Điển, đã trở thành một người đàn ông rất giàu có. Tuy nhiên, ông đã thấy trước sức mạnh hủy diệt phổ quát của nó quá muộn. Nobel không muốn được nhớ đến như là người phát minh ra thuốc nổ, vì vậy vào năm 1895, chỉ hai tuần trước khi qua đời, ông đã tạo ra một quỹ để sử dụng để trao giải thưởng cho những người có đóng góp xứng đáng cho nhân loại. Ban đầu có năm giải thưởng: văn học, vật lý, hóa học, y học và hòa bình. Kinh tế đã được thêm vào năm 1968, chỉ sáu mươi bảy năm sau lễ trao giải đầu tiên.

  Di sản ban đầu của Nobel Nobel với chín triệu đô la đã được đầu tư và tiền lãi cho khoản tiền này được sử dụng cho các giải thưởng thay đổi từ 30.000 đến 125.000 đô la.

  Hàng năm vào ngày 10 tháng 12, ngày kỷ niệm cái chết của Nobel, các giải thưởng (huy chương vàng, bằng cấp và tiền) được trao cho những người chiến thắng. Đôi khi chính trị đóng một vai trò quan trọng trong các quyết định của ban giám khảo. Người Mỹ đã giành được nhiều giải thưởng khoa học, nhưng tương đối ít giải thưởng văn học.

  Không có giải thưởng nào được trao từ năm 1940 đến 1942 vào đầu Thế chiến II. Một số người đã giành được hai giải thưởng, nhưng điều này rất hiếm; những người khác đã chia sẻ giải thưởng của họ.

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 humanity. 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 30,000to30,000to125,000.

          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

How much money did Nobel leave for the prizes?

A. $30,000

B. $125,000

C. $155,000

D. $9,000,000
