I got more nervous when I heard he called, “Noah! Wheres Noah? Hes in this race!”He saw me under the tree and shouted, “Noah, we 3a boy to run the two mile race.” He pushed me to the starting line(线). I pleaded(恳求) with him. “I dont know the way around the lake!”“Its not a problem. Just 4Craig and youll know the way.” Bronto smiled. Craig was the fastest runner in our class.

Charles liked spending time outdoors observing(观察) nature more than having medical classes. He dropped out without graduating.Next, Charles father sent him to school to become a minister(牧师).

His friends encouraged him to follow his interest in science.Luckily, Charles was invited to sail on the Beagle as an unpaid scientist after graduation.

The trip was planned to last two years. In fact, it lasted five. During this time, he saw many amazing things.
