问题     Alfred Nobel, a Swedish inventor contributed most of his vast fortune in a trust as a fund from which annual prizes could be awarded to individuals and organizations who had achieved the greatest benefit to humanity in a particular year. Originally, there were six classifications for outstanding contributions designated in Nobel’s will including chemistry, physics, medicine, literature, and international peace.

Candidates for the prizes must be nominated in writing by qualified authority in the field of competition. Recipients are selected by their respective institutions.

Each one includes a gold medal, a diploma, and a cash award of about a million dollars.
