Beethoven, a famous musician in the world, was born in Germany in 1770. In his childhood Beethoven
didn"t have a happy life. His father was a singer. When he was only four, his father began to make him
practise hour after hour on different musical instruments. If he did not put his heart into it, his father would
beat him or make it hard on him.
Beethoven loved music and he learned so fast that he was able to go around to give concerts, when he
was only a boy of eleven. At the age of seventeen, he won high praise from Mozart, the great musician at
that time.
Beethoven was often poor and ill during his life. After one illness, he suddenly found himself deaf (聋).
At that time he was only thirty-one. It was a blow (打击) to him indeed.
But he still went on working and writing music pieces. To people"s surprise, some of his best pieces
were written after he lost his hearing.

One of the most famous scientists to study adaptations (适应能力) was Charles Darwin (达尔文). He was
born in England in 1809. He wasn"t the best student in his school, but when he was 16,his father sent him to
a medical school. Charles liked spending time outdoors observing (观察) nature more than attending medical
classes and dropped out without graduating.
Next, Charles"father sent him to school to become a minister (牧师). This time he made it to graduation,
But he didn"t want to do the work of a minister. His friends encouraged him to follow his interest in science.

but he was the lucky one to go. The Beagle was to travel to South America and then around the world. The
crew"s task was to make maps of the places they visited.
On December 27th, 1831 Charles Darwin sailed from England on the Beagle. The trip was planned to last
two years. In fact, it lasted five. During this time, he saw many amazing things. He collected lots of plants
and animals and took them back to England to study.

described how some animals have adaptations that help them survive. They are passed on to offspring (后代).
