hydrographic, geologic, and meteorologic data from South America and many other regions around the world. Darwin's own observation on this voyage led to his theory of natural selection. Charles Darwin was greatly influenced by the geologist Adam Sedgwick and naturalist John Henslow in his development of the theory of natural selection, which was to become the foundation concept supporting the theory of evolution. Darwin's theory holds that environmental effects lead to varying degrees of reproductive success in individuals and groups of organisms.

A big explosion occurred on 2 September 1864 at his factory in Heleneborg in Stockholm, killing five people. Among them was his younger brother,



Emil. The foundations of the Nobel Prize were laid in 1895 when Alfred Nobel wrote his last will, leaving much of his wealth for its establishment.

We prepared for a long time, training hard and fighting for approval of our participation. Nothing was easy.

I had physiotherapy every day following the injury, and tried to recover as quickly as possible. Of course, the ankle could not heal completely in a few days, so I had no choice but to just try my best and have my ankle taped when I played in matches. We played against a team from Thailand, Mongolia, and Malaysia. The most difficult and important match was that against the Malaysian Team. We played well for the match and tried our very best. But finally we lost to them and ranked 9. It was so close. We nearly reached our goal - to be among the first 8 teams. 1. The writer's team was bitten by the team from … A. Qatar B. Thailand C.

Mongolian I, Milton Friedman was born on July 31, 1921, in Brooklyn, N.Y., the fourth and last child and first son of Sarah Ethel (Landau) and Jeno Saul Friedman. My parents were born in CarpathoRuthenia of the Soviet Union. They emigrated to the U.S. in their teens, meeting in New York. When I was a year old, my parents moved to Rahway, N.J., a small town about 20 miles from New York City. I was awarded a competitive scholarship to Rutgers University. I graduated from Rutgers in 1932. I financed the rest of my college expenses by the usual mixture of waiting at tables, clerking in a



retail store, occasional entrepreneurial ventures, and summer earnings. Shortly, however, I became interested in economics. In economics, I had the good fortune to be exposed to two remarkable men: Arthur F. Burns and Homer Jones. Arthur Burns shaped my understanding of economic research, introduced me to the highest scientific standards, and became a guiding influence on my subsequent career. Homer Jones introduced me to rigorous economic theory, made economics exciting and relevant, and encouraged me to go on to graduate work. On his recommendation, the Chicago Economics Department offered me a tuition scholarship. As it happened, I was also offered a scholarship by Brown University in Applied Mathematics, but, by that time, I had definitely transferred my primary allegiance to economics. In 1976 I won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for my achievements in the fields of consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and for his demonstration of the complexity of stabilization policy. In 1977, at age 65,1 retired from the University of Chicago after teaching there for 30 years. 1. Who influenced Milton Friedman on economic research? A. Sarah Ethel. B. Jeno Friedman. C. Arthur F. Burns. D. Homer Jones. E. Alfred Nobel. 2. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. Milton Friedman was very committed in his interest and talent in economics. B. Homer Jones shaped Milton Friedman understanding of economic research. C. Arthur Burns introduced Milton Friedman to rigorous economic theory. D.

What did Milton Friedman do in financing his college expenses? A. He was a teacher during summer. B. He had a job in entrepreneur company. C. He worked as a clerk in a retail store D. He sold tables to people. E. He taught economics in the university.
