Charles
Robert Darwin
A.
Charles Robert Darwin was born in Shrewsbury on the 12ih of February, 1809. His
mother died when he was eight, so he was brought up. by his sister and his
father Robert, who was a doctor. Charles later said that he greatly loved his
father, but most people found Dr Robert (as he was called) hard to get along
with and a bit scary. Dr Robert was so large and so strict that people usually fell
silent when he came into the room.
B.
Charles went to school in Shrewsbury, but he hated it! He didn't pay
attention in class, he copied from his fellow pupils and he forgot everything
he had learned after a day or two. His school was really an awful place. Boys
were beaten for not doing their homework or for getting bad marks on tests!
There were no toilets or bathrooms in the building, and all the boys had to use
chamber pots as toilets. These were kept under their beds even when they were
full.
C.
When he was 16, Charles went to Edinburgh University to
study medicine. His father wanted him to become a doctor, but Charles didn't
like medicine. He found the lectures dull, he hated the operations he had to
watch — he was sick at the Sight of blood. Charles didn't quite dare tell his
father how much he hated medicine, but he got his sister to do it for him. His
unhappy father said that he could become a clergyman instead, if he liked.
D.
Once
a friend invited him on a scientific expedition on his ship called the Beagle. Charles really wanted to go, but he
wasn't sure that his father would approve. And he was quite right. However, his
dad said, 'If you can find any man of common sense who advises you to go I'll
let you go'. Charles's uncle agreed to help and talked his father into the
idea. And so, without any clear idea about what he wanted to do with his life
Charles went on a scientific expedition.
E.
It was a 5-year expedition to unknown places. Although Charles wasn't
actually a scientist and he was terribly seasick, he had a wonderful time on
his voyage. When the Beagle arrived at the
Cape Verde Islands, Charles set foot in a tropical forest for the first time.
And he was amazed by the huge variety of animals and plants. He started to
collect like crazy — butterflies, spiders, beetles, shells — he
loved everything.
F.
In 1935, the
Beagle landed
at the Galapagos Islands where Charles saw pant tortoises and other interesting
creatures. Charles found that each of the islands had its own variety of tortoise and finch. The animals on
different islands were a little bit different. It seemed very strange to
Charles. According to the accepted view at the time, all animal species were
created by God for ever. So God must have designed slightly different animals
for each island...
G.
Charles
didn't spend all his time thinking about science. In 1837, he started thinking
about getting married. After all, he was already 29 years old! Being a good
scientist, he made a list of reasons why he should or should not get married.
He would have less time to study evolution, but he would have a friend in old
age. He would have fewer expeditions, but he would have kids...
Looking over the list, he decided that the time had come to get married after
all.

(Т.М. Reid)
Maurice Gerald reached the stream and finally fell asleep. But the pain
of his wounds, once more returning, woke him. To go away from the spot was
simply impossible. Any movement gave him pain. There was no alternative but
stay where he was.
Suddenly Maurice heard little feet on the sand and excited breathing.
The coyotes! The smell of blood had made them mad. The mustanger knew they
would attack him. He had no weapon but a knife. His rifle and guns had been
carried off by his horse. He drew the knife and prepared to defend himself.
Four or five wolves attacked the wounded
man. Maurice shook them off, striking out with his knife. Some of the coyotes
went away, but new ones appeared.
Suddenly the wounded man heard the sound of
hoofs, followed by the loud barking of a dog. He called for help. But the
horseman didn't hear him. The horse, or horseman passed on, but the dog — it was Тага! — broke through the bushes and
rushed at the coyotes. It attacked two of the wolves. A third one could be
attacked, but the frightened coyotes ran away.,
The man had no strength left. He drew the
cloak over his face to cover it from the sun, and then he fell asleep. The dog
lay down at his feet.
A few hours later the mustanger woke up. His
faithful dog had saved his life, and would still protect, him against the
attacks of coyotes. But it couldn't get him from the spot. And to stay there
would be to die of hunger and of the wounds.
'But Тага may take a
message to the hut,' he said. 'Come here, old fellow! I want you to play
postman for me.'
Maurice
found a card in his pocket. No pencil! He could do without it.
He broke a thorn off the closest bush and
wrote something with the blood of a coyote. Then he tied the card to the neck
of the dog and made it go to the hut.
After a
while the mustanger was surrounded by the coyotes again.
This time Maurice had a plan. He took off
his cloak and cut a few holes with his knife. Then he tore up his scarf in two
parts and used them to tie the cloak to a tree, making a hammock. The mustanger
climbed into the hammock. He thought there he was no longer in danger.
There was danger, however, which he had not
seen. Very soon he realized he hadn't taken with him enough water. He could not
return to the stream now. That would be certain death. It was a torture for the
wounded man to see the fresh water of the stream and be unable to reach it.
Suddenly he saw the coyotes get to their feet and rush off. What made them
leave?
The mustanger turned on his knee and looked
around. There were no coyotes. He listened. No sounds.
Maurice got out of the hammock and reached
the stream. He once more looked around him and felt danger. He noticed the
spotted yellow skin among the leaves. It was the jaguar. It was that dangerous
animal that had made the coyotes go away. And now its eyes were on the wounded
man. It was ready to attack Maurice.
