still he was a good age: 英年早逝
a good age 英年; 前途无量的年纪.
By the way, who was this physicist ? Before 1920, there was not a physicist who won the Nobel Prize twice, was there ?说是houghton dennis，我查了查，好像也没有这个人，可能是杜撰的吧。嗯，still he was a good age，这是固定搭配吗？不是固定搭配. Do you have the title of the book you are reading about " Houghton Dennis"?It could be a novel.哦，这样啊。这是CET6听力长对话中的片段，没明白什么意思，所以来问问。嗯，如果是小说中的人物，那就不清楚哩。谢谢哈。Excellent !! Thanks for your information. Madame Curie (female) won Nobel Prize twice, one in physics (1903) and another one in Chemistry, and her husband, Pierre Curie won only once (1903), and he died at a good age by a traffic accident (1906). Their daughter and son-in-law were awarded the Nobel Prize, too. The fact that our people in the same family won the Nobel Prize is amazingly unusual.
