Charles Darwin was a scientist who changed our understanding of the natural world. He is known as the Father of Modern Biology. Darwin spent all his life studying nature and making notes about all the species(物种)he found.
Darwin was born in 1809 in England. Like many geniuses he didn't do well at school and got poor marks. He was a good athlete though and loved exploring nature and collecting sea shells. He also kept doing chemistry experiments and so his classmates gave him the nickname "Gas"
His father was a doctor and expected Charles to become one too. Charles started studying medicine at Edinburgh University, but soon gave up his studies there. He went on to study religion at Cambridge University instead. There he started collecting insects like beetles and paid too little attention to his studies.
In 1831,at the age of 22 , Darwin went on a five-year expedition to South America , Australia and South Africa by ship. He was often seasick, but the things he saw on this long journey changed his life. He collected many fossils as well as animal and plant specimens. He spent the rest of his life studying what he had seen and he wrote many books.
In 1839, Darwin married his cousin, Emma Wedgwood, with whom he had ten children! He was a loving father and enjoyed family life, which was always more important to him than his research. In spite of having many health problems throughout his life, Darwin lived until he his 73.
Darwin's most famous book On the Origin of Species came out in 1859 and sold out in a day.It said that all living things were related, which meant that human beings were just another kind of animal. These ideas were not popular at first, but now most people agree with them and admire Darwin as a brilliant scientist.

Hip hop, or rap music as it's also called, started on the streets and in the clubs of New York City in the 1970s, but today many countries have their own kind of hip hop music, This kind of music has its roots in reggae,disco and funk music. Rapping, which speaking to the rhythm of the music,is an important part of this music. Young people rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.
Would you like to rap in class? Well actually, hip hop music is being played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA. Why? There is a new school programme called "Flocabulary" where teachers use text books and hip hop CDs to help teach a variety of school subjects. The lyrics of the songs include information on a subject students are studying, which makes learning easy and fun Students and teachers are amazed at the positive effects it has had on exam marks. This is one teacher said: "I've used hip hop songs in class, and I've never seen students have such interests in history! It's unbelievable how students remember what I teach it even encourages us towrite our own songs.
Blake Harrison, a high school student, first thought of the idea of Flocabulary. The word "Flocabulary" comes from the words "flow" and "vocabulary". "Flow" is a rap word for "style" or the way a rapper says the words of a song. How did he get the idea'? Well he realized he could remember the lyrics of a hip hop song very easily. So, why not make lessons into songs'? Today together with Alex Rappaport, a composer, Blake produces hip hop songs for maths .science and literature, which are now being used in schools with great success.
