Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) – Astronomer and Scientist. Galileo developed a

superior telescope and made many significant discoveries in astronomy. He was
sentenced to life imprisonment by the inquisition for his support for the
Copernican theory that the sun was the center of the solar system.
Galileo was born in Florence, Italy in 1564 to a poor but noble family. His parents
recognized their child’s innate intelligence and talents and so made sacrifices to
have him educated. At his father’s insistence, Galileo studied the profitable career
of medicine. But, at the University of Pisa, Galileo became fascinated in a wide
range of subjects. He was also critical of many Aristotle’s teaching which had
dominated education for the past 2,000 years.
Galileo was appointed to be a mathematics professor at the University of Pisa, but
his strident criticisms of Aristotle left him isolated among his contemporaries.
After three years of persecution, he resigned and went to the University of Padua,
where he taught maths. His entering lectures attracted a large following and he
was able to spend the next 18 years pursuing his interest in astronomy and
mechanics.

Pisa?

All human beings eat food and make use of the chemical energy in it, so do all
other animals. Perhaps you wonder where all that chemical energy comes from.
Why doesn't the food all get used up?
The answer is that new food is being grown as fast as old food is used to. It is the
green plants that form the new food. Animals either eat the plants or eat other
animals that have eaten plants.
The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can absorb sunlight.
When it does so, it changes the energy of the sun into chemical energy. The
chemical energy present in sunlit chlorophyll is used to combine dioxide in the air
 with water from the soil. Starch and other complicated compounds are formed.
These are high in chemical energy obtained from the sunlit chlorophyll.
They make up the food on which mankind and all other animals live. In the process
of forming this food, some oxygen atoms are left over. There are given of into the
air by plants. The whole process is called photosynthesis.
Thus, plants use sunlight to form food and oxygen to form carbon dioxide and
water again. Plants change the sun's energy into chemical energy. And animals
change the animal energy into kinetic and heat energy.

6. From the text, we know that….

a. plants absorbs sunlight to produce kinetic energy
b. chlorophyll is the most important thing in photosynthesis
c. plants need to heat energy to live
d. sun's energy cannot be formed into kinetic energy
e. all human beings need chemical energy

House Husbands' Heart Risk

Most people assume that life in the rat race is bad for our health. But reversing the
traditional gender roles, being s house husband is a stressful business, according to the
latest research by American scientists. By giving up their jobs in order to become house
husbands, men increase their risk of heart attack or coronary disease by as much as 82%,
according to research based on 10 year study of 2,500 people in Boston, USA.
According to Dr. Elaine Eaker, the key to the problem is that some men became stressed
about performing a role not traditionally assign to them by society. Men who stay at home
tend not to have the same levels of support from friends and family as women do the
same.
Jack O'Sullivan, of the Father's Direct Group, was quoted as saying: "Society expect the
main career should be a woman and society is structured around that. Day care is called
mother and toddler groups and some men feel awkward about belonging to those groups.
Professor Gary Cooper, a psychologist at the University of Manchester, said many men
tend to underestimate the task of caring for a family. He said "Most men think a house
husband involves putting on a bit of washing, taking the kids to school and the putting
their feet up with a cup of coffee.
They are crazy. Most men are not used to preforming a variety of activities simultaneously
- the kind of multitasking which is second nature to most women.
It is estimated that men have taken over the main homemaker's role in one in seven
homes, as increasing numbers of women become the main breadwinner. The study also
found that women in high-powered jobs were more likely to develop heart disease than
those in more junior positions.
10. Why did Dr. Elaine Eaker say that men are stressed about performing women role at home?
a. Men have the same levels of support from friends and family as women in doing the housework.
b. Men don't have support from friends and family in doing the housework.
c. Men have no ability to do the housework.
d. Men expect to get praise from friends and family doing the housework.
e. Men are accustomed to do the housework.

11. The main idea of the first paragraph is ….

a. the research on house-husbands health involved 2,500 people
b. house husbands have understandable reason why they gave up their jobs
c. people living in the rat race tend to have heart attacks
d. the result of research showed house husbands tending to have heart attacks
