His father was a famous musician, Galileo’ early education was in a monastery. From there, in 1581, he went to the University of Pisa, where he wasa student of medicine and mathematics. Then from 1592 to 1610 he went to the University of Padua, He wasnita studentat this university — he was a professor of mathematics and astronomy. Galileo was the father of three children — two daughters and a son — but he wasnt married to their mother. Py HIS SCIENTIFIC LIFE Galileo made excellent telescopes. With them he could see moons going round the planet Jupiter and the planet Venus going round the sun, At the time, there was the belief that the earth was the centre of the universe and the sun went round the earth. However, by 1610 Galileo’ theory was that the earth was not the centre of our universe, Galileo said that the sun was the centre, and the earth moved round it.

Unit 2 + Never ever! Soldier, businessman, adventurer — Simon Murray has been all of these in his life. Now in his seventies, he is looking for more adventures. THE SOLDIER ‘Simon was born in 1940, in Leicester, England. In the 1950s as a teenager, like many teenagers, he suffered a broken heart. Unlike most teenagers, he dropped out of school and went to join the French Foreign Legion -a special unit of the French Army that allows foreigners to join. In the 1960s he fought in the Algerian war and rose to the rank of Chief Corporal, before leaving in 1965 to go and live in Hong Kong. In 1978 Murray published a memoir of his years in the French Foreign Legion, called Legionnaire: An Englishman in the French Foreign Legion. In 2002 the memoir was made into a movie called Simon: An English Legionnaire. ‘THE BUSINESSMAN Itwas in Hong Kong that Simon began his career in business. He worked for or ran some of the world’s ‘most successful companies in South East Asia, including Jardine Matheson in the 1970s, Deutsche Bank in the 1990s, and the Vodafone Group PLC. ‘THE ADVENTURER In 2004, when he was in his sixties, Simon looked for a new challenge. His wife, Jennifer, was the first woman to fly a helicopter solo around the world, and so her suggestion for a challenge came as no surprise. At the age of 63, Simon became the oldest man to walk to the South Pole. ‘Simon lived in Asia for 40 years, Now he and Jennifer live back in England. They have been married for 43 years. Simon says that his marriage has been his longest and greatest achievement. These days their three children are trying to stop their parents from having more adventures, but the couple simply say: ‘We're not listening!” Listening 10 An interview with Simon Murray Listen to Simon giving an interview about his life.
