Scientists and
Thinkers
(1)Francis Bacon (1561—1626) held an important ⑥rank in King James ⑦royal court of England. But he didnt like the day⁃to⁃day, slow and ⑧inefficient working style, but the worthy search for ⑨knowledge.
(2)Galileo Galilei (1564—1642) who proved the idea that ⑩“the Earth is not the centre of the universe”, was often 11punished by the church. They even put Galilei 12in prison. But he didnt give in. Now Galilei is known as the father of 13astronomy.
(3)Bacon and Galilei were 14brave enough to 15step out from the shadows of 16conventional thought.
