Answer 2

a) Archimedes in his bath

Do you remember the story of the Greek scientist Archimedes? He was trying to solve a problem in physics – how to show if the king's crown was made of gold or not. He thought and thought, but he could not find the answer. So he stopped worrying and had a bath instead. Suddenly, the answer came to his mind. He was so excited that he jumped out of his bath, naked, and ran down the street shouting, 'I've found it!' Actually, what he said in Ancient Greek was 'Eureka!' We still use this word in English when we suddenly find the answer to a problem.

b) Einstein on the tram

Albert Einstein had his first idea about the Theory of Relativity when he was traveling home from work on the tram in Geneva.

c) The scientist who saw the solution on a bus

The chemist 'Kekule' is famous for having discovered a lot about how atoms and molecules are arranged. His first discovery happened when he was riding on a bus, one evening in about 1855, thinking about other things. Suddenly, he saw atoms dancing before his eyes. Then one atom joined another one to make a chain. When he got off the bus he understood how atoms join together to make molecules.

3. Fill in the gaps with the, a, or –. Underline the correct word.

Scientists do a lot of research in order to find cues for various diseases. A lot of money is spent on equipment every year, but the information collected is invaluable.
