(287~212 BC)(Ancient Greek) He was mathematician. He found that if you put an object into water the water pushes the object up. It rises and partly floats. The force of the water pushing it up is the same as the weight of the object.Charles Darwin
(1808~1882)(British) The Origin of Species was published in 1859. It explained how plants and animals had changed over time to fit in with a changing environment. Thomas Newcomen
(1663~1729)(British) He improved the first steam pump built by Thomas Savery in 1698 and turned it into a steam engine for taking water out of mines in 1712. James Watt improved it still further in the 1770s turning it into the first modern steam engine used on the railways.Gregor Mendel
(1822~1884)(Czech) Between 1856~1863 he grew 28,000 pea plants and examined the results. Finally he developed ideas on heredity and inherited characteristics.Marie Curie
(1867~1934)(Polish and French) She was born in Poland and came to study in France. In 1898 she discovered radium. She received two Nobel prizes, one for physics and one for chemistry. She was the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize.Thomas Edison
(1847~1931)(American) He was already an inventor of other electrical devices (phonograph, electric light bulb) when in 1882 he designed a system for providing New York with electricity from a central power station. This was a tremendous achievement, which had previously been thought impossible.Leonardo da Vinci
(1452~1519)(Italian) He was a famous artist whose skill for showing human skin tones made his paintings seem to come alive. He used to study dead people in order to make his paintings as accurate as possible. Later in his life he lived in France where he designed a submarine and a flying machine. Sir Humphry Davy
(1778~1829)(British) He did research into different gases and discovered the medicinal value of nitrous oxide (or laughing gas) as an anaesthetic. In 1815 he developed a safety lamp for miners. Previously there had been many accidents when candles on the miners’ helmets had exploded when it came into contact with underground gas from the coal the miners were digging. The safety helmet made working underground very much safer.Zhang Heng
(78~139)(Chinese) He invented the first seismograph to indicate in the direction of an earthquake. It was in the shape of a cylinder with eight dragonheads round the top, each with frogs directly under a dragon’s head. When an earthquake occurred, a ball fell out of the dragon’s mouth, making a noise.Stephen Hawking
(1942~ )(British) He has worked in astronomy and studied black holes in space. He has shown that black holes do not only absorb everything around them but, from time to time, throw out matter as well. This may mark the beginning of new galaxies. This is an advance on the old theory which said that black holes “eat” everything they come across.Word Study CONTENTSGuessing wordsSorting out Blanks filling Words matching a little __________painterexpertThey have similar physical ______________.characteristicsvictimsradiumuniverse The _________ is _________ to have stolen much money from a bank.suspectsuspectedThe woman is making an __________ to someone.enquiryhandlepumpphysicianneighborhood / neighbourhoodmovementfireworkchartchallengeHow much water can a sponge __________?absorbIn order to solve the problem, we ought to ___________ it closely.analyze The little boy is ___________ a piece of good news.announcingAs for the bad result, they are __________ each other.blamingWhat can I ___________ from this problem?concludeHow can I ____________________ from this problem? draw a conclusionThe building is being _____________ now.constructedThe building is under _____________ now.constructionMany people have ___________ money for the survivors of Wenchuan Earthquake.contributedThe patient has been _________ and been able to walk home.curedHe is afraid of being ___________.defeatedIf you are __________ _____ the sun too long, you will get sunburnt. exposed toDo you believe that someone can _________ the future?foreseeWhen you are being ___________, you should listen carefully.instructedThe mainland is _________ _____ the island by a bridge. linked toThe old man’s words don’t ________ _______ to the reporters. make senseThe air is ____________ in this way.pollutedHe is ____________ her gift.rejectingThey are ___________ thread with these simple tools.spinningThe nurse is ____________ the patient carefully.attendingThe young lady ________ ___________ a solution to the problem. put forwardstrictMatch the words with the pictures.1234567strictpositivepositiveenthusiasticenthusiasticbackwardbackwardscientificscientificcautiouscautiousseveresevereSummaryn. characteristic, radium, painter, conclusion, expert, physician, challenge, victim, suspect, enquiry, neighborhood, pump, handle, construction, chart, firework, movement, universev. put forward, conclude, analyse, defeat, attend, expose to, cure, absorb, suspect, foresee, blame, pollute, handle, link to, announce, instruct, construct, contribute, reject, make sense, spin, challengeadj. scientific, severe, positive, (be) strict (with), backward, enthusiastic, cautious1) John Snow devoted himself to ________(science, scientific) research.
