  As a boy Charles liked to go for walks in the fields and forests.He watched nature and compared what he saw with everything he had read in science books.He also liked collecting very much.He collected many things: eggs, stones, and leaves.His father did not like this, as Charles was not studying very well at school.

  ①为了成为一名医生,十六岁时达尔文就被送到爱丁堡大学(Edinburgh University)学习。But he was interested in the history of nature.

  By 1859, Darwin had finished his famous book The Origin of Species.It made a great hit in the world of science.③He was opposed (反对) by the church and even by some scientists.But later, more and more scientists agreed with him.
