Unfortunately, she was discovered by God, and was driven away 13 the Garden together with a boy called Adam. After they 14 the garden, Adam and Eve had their own babies and 15 the ancestors of all of us. This is the beginning of our world, history 16 morality.*
In the Autumn of 1665, there 17 a young man sitting under an apple tree in his garden. His name was Newton. While he was thinking of one problem, suddenly, an apple dropped down from the tree and fell on his head. 18 this, Newton discovered gravitation* on that day and his new idea of science made people really 19 and happy, also he changed our opinions about nature and the way 20 we think, then people began to 21 what science was at that time.
