In the twenty-first century, educated people find it difficult to believe that living conditions in the nineteenth century _ people _ serious illnesses. The reports of many doctors _ illness _ drinking polluted water. However, one hundred years ago people did not connect a disease to the environment. So they did not _ the companies that supplied dirty water. The doctors found that the dirtier the water, the more _ the illness. It was only later when people began to _ the water and _ its quality that they_ the idea that cholera was _ from the air. It was only when everybody began to attack the dirty conditions that cholera was _ and was not a problem any more.exposeexaminesevereblame tolinktoabsorbedrejectedtestdefeated1Great scientistsGreat scientistsReading & WritingWarming upDo you know what is the center of the solar system?Fast readingListen to the tape, and find out the answers to the questions.1.

Born in Torun, he began his university studies in Krakow in 1491, where he studied canon law and Latin and Greek classics. However he also had an interest in mathematics and astronomy. After obtaining his degree of Doctor of Canon Law (教会法规博士学位教会法规博士学位)in Italy in 1503, Copernicus returned home to Warmia in Poland to serve as Canon (=priest) . In 1530, Copernicus completed his great work De Revolutionibus (天体运行论天体运行论).Copernicus knew that these findings would lead him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church (罗马天主教教徒罗马天主教教徒), so he wasin no hurry to publish his theory. He only published it as he lay dying in 1543. Though Copernicus did not live to hear of its extraordinary impact, the book which first suggested that the Sun, not the Earth, is the centre of the universe is now recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time.

Qian Xuesen first studied to be an engineer.2. In America he began to work on space rockets so that he was able to develop a space programme when he came back to China.3. When Qian Xuesen returned to China he sep up a Space Institute to begin training people in how to design and build rockets.4. In China he has been honoured as “the father of the space programme”.5. Steve Smith suggested putting Qian Xuesens picture on Mars when the first Chinese astronaut lands there.
