Charles Rbert Darwin was brn n 12 February 1809 in Shrpshire, England. Darwin’s childhd passin was science, and his interest in chemistry, hwever, was clear: he was even nicknamed ‘Gas’ by his classmates.
In 1825, his father sent him t study medicine at Edinburgh University, where he learned hw t classify plants. Darwin became passinate abut natural histry and this became his fcus while he studied at Cambridge. Darwin went n a vyage tgether with Rbert Fitzry, the captain f HMS Beagle, t Suth America t facilitate British trade in Patagnia. The jurney was life-changing. Darwin spent much f the trip n land cllecting samples f plants, animals and rcks, which helped him t develp an understanding f the prcesses that shape the Earth’s surface. Darwin’s analysis f the plants and animals that he gathered led him t express dubts n frmer explanatins abut hw species frmed and evlved ver time.
Darwin’s wrk cnvinced him that natural selectin was key t understanding the develpment f the natural wrld. The thery f natural selectin says that individuals f a species are mre likely t survive when they inherit (经遗传获得) characteristics best suited fr that specific envirnment. These features then becme mre widespread and can lead eventually t the develpment f a new species. With natural selectin, Darwin argued hw a wide variety f life frms develped ver time frm a single cmmn ancestr.
Darwin married his cusin, Emma Wedgwd, in 1839. When Darwin’s eldest daughter, Annie, died frm a sudden illness in 1851, he lst his belief in Gd. His tenth and final child, Charles Waring Darwin, was brn in 1856. Significantly fr Darwin, this baby was disabled, altering hw Darwin thught abut the human species. Darwin had previusly thught that species remained adapted until the envirnment changed; he nw believed that every new variatin was imperfect and that a struggle t survive was what drve species t adapt.
Thugh rejected at the beginning, Darwin’s thery f evlutin by natural selectin is nwadays well accepted by the scientific cmmunity as the best evidence-based explanatin fr the diversity and cmplexity f life n Earth. The Natural Histry Museum’s library alne has 478 editins f his On the Origin f Species in 38 languages.
4．What made Darwin recnsider the rigin and develpment f species?
A．Examining plants and animals cllected.
B．His desire fr a vyage t different cntinents.
C．Classifying samples in a jurney t Suth America.

A．That he had ten children in all.
B．That he lst his eldest daughter.
C．His yungest sn’s being disabled.
D．His marriage with Emma Wedgwd.

B．Darwin’s happy family gave him much supprt in his studies.
C．Darwin’s discveries were based n his life and field studies.
D．Darwin’s thery f evlutin was accepted at the very beginning.

One characteristic f hybrids is that they usually attain a 38 (high) yield than cnventinal crps.
Hwever, whether it was pssible t develp a hybrid f self-pllinating plants such as rice was 39 matter f great debate. The cmmn assumptin then was that it culd nt be dne. Thrugh intense effrt, Yuan vercame enrmus technical difficulties t develp the first hybrid rice that culd be used fr farming in 1974. This hybrid enabled farmers 40 (expand) their utput greatly.
