It is a film that talks about the survival story of an astronaut Mark Watney, who was left alone and presumed dead after a violent sandstorm. Life in Mars is really different from earth. It is really a miracle for Mark to return to earth safely. The film really arouses my curiosity about Mars and the whole universe. So how do you guys feel about that?

Characteristics of Mars:

1.Atmosphere: the atmosphere mainly consists of 98% carbon dioxide 2% argon(氩), %2 nitrogen(氮), and traces of oxide and water.

Topic 4: Why do you think Darwin is so great? Or Lincoln? Or anybody else you consider great?

Part1:lead-in

Darwin and Lincoln were born on the same day Feb. 12, 1809. Both of them have leaded a great revolution. One of them is a scientist the other one is a politician. And both of them have had a great impact on the world we live now. So how can we tell who is more important, who is greater than the other? What are your opinions?

Part2: discussion Darwin:

Supports: Darwin is greater, for he risked his health and reputation to put forward the idea that we human are just part of the nature, not over nature. He is brave. And his adventure the voyage on Her Majesty?s Ship Beagle was unique and irreplaceable, because no other scientist could have the experience, on other scientist could collect a great deal of sample as he did.

Objections: Darwin is not that great! Imagine Darwin was not born the theory of evolution will be come up by other scientist. He was not the only one who had the idea.

Lincoln:

Supports: Lincoln ended the civil war which claimed thousands Americans? life. He was a political genius and he knew how to use language how to make a public speech to get people?s attention. He knew the art of language and at the same time he created his own style or rather the American style.

Objection: Lincoln is not as great as Darwin. Lincoln just made difference inside America. He stopped the civil war and made a revolution. But it cannot be compared to Darwin?s contribution, which had a great impact on everyone?s mind in the world. He challenged the religion and free people?s mind…

Part3: couclusion Yes when we think about who is greater, we must see their impact on the world, and we can try to imagine what our world will be like if they were not there. So now we find that it seems Darwin is more important for his theory has had a long lasting effect on the world we live now, till now many scientists are still study the evolution of species, and the history of human?s evolution.
