9. Changes in living conditions

10. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen – famous German physicist, experimenter, Nobel Prize
winner. Roentgen experimented with cathode rays. In a few weeks he discovered
that: 1) rays could penetrate through a variety of materials. 2) Roentgen found that
the rays penetrated even through his body. 3) X-rays propagated in straight lines.

11. Gregor Mendel – Austrian monk, geneticist. He discovered the basic
principles of inheritance. During his whole life he remained unknown
and unprofessional, whose explorations were ignored. Mendel
understood that all the elements, which we call genes now, were
closely connected.

12. Charles Darwin – English naturalist, geologist, traveler, created an evolutionary
living environment selection theory, released a study on the evolution of species.
The rest of his life Charles Darwin spent exploring natural selection with orchids
and other plants.

13. Albert Einstein - German physicist, formulated the special theory of relativity and
later general theory of relativity. In respect of appearance and standards, he was
an individualist. He had a good sense of humor, was modest and was a bit talented
as a violinist.

14. Dmitri Mendeleev – Russian chemist. In 1869 he developed the Periodical Table.
The creation of the periodical law was an important discovery which helped to
classify the elements and to identify the unknown properties of elements. In
honor of Mendeleev, the 101st element was named – mendelevium.

15. Alfred Bernard Nobel – Sweden chemist, engineer, creator of dynamite, Nobel
Prize founder. Alfred mixed nitroglycerin with other inert materials, including
diatomite. In 1867 he filed the application of the new mixture, named dinamite.

16. Tom Edison - American inventor, entrepreneur, one of the most productive
inventors. He did 1093 inventions. Edison’s light bulb together with the power
supply circuit provided an opportunity to use electricity everywhere. In 1882 his
company started to produce electric power to New York houses. After this,
electricity was used all over the world.

17. Samuel Finley Morse – American inventor known for telegraph and Morse code
inventions. In 1838 he invented Morse’s Alphabet. He had an idea that with the
help of electricity you could send messages. That is how telegraph was invented.

18. Alexander Graham Bell - Scottish scientist, telephone inventor, Bell telephone
company founder. Bell needed a lot of money for the phone discovery , but he
continued working and invented some other gadgets.

19. Wright brothers – USA inventors, aviation pioneers, pilots. Orville Wright and
Vilber Wright, using the inventions of other scientists, constructed sailplanes.
Brothers took off on board an airplane for the first time in the human history. After
five years people realized that there had been the first flight in the human history.

20. Millvin Dean (97), the last survivor of the “Titanic”, died on May 31, 2009, in
England. Millvin Dean climbed up to the deck of the Titanic when she was only 9
months old. Only 705 passengers out of 2224 survived, including two dogs.

21. Joseph Lister - English surgeon, known as a promoter of antiseptic measures. He
understood that various diseases were caused by microorganisms and other pests.
Before each operation, he thoroughly washed his hands, cleaned tools and
sometimes sprayed carbolic acid solution in the room.

22. Robert Koch - modern microbiology pioneer, the discoverer of tuberculosis and
cholera factor, the developer of worldwide bacteriology school. In 1975 he won the
Nobel Prize.

23. Edward Jenner - vaccination pioneer. In 1796 he conducted an experiment, which
showed that the inoculation of the substance taken from the cow suffering from
smallpox helped to protect people from certain smallpox. Nowadays, vaccines can
control 28 diseases.

24. Robert Fulton – American, who patented the first wheeled steamer suitable for
practical use. It was named “North River Steamboat”, which was better known as
“Clermont" .

25. James Clark Maxwell - the great British physicist, best known for having
formulated four equations, which showed the basic laws of electricity and
magnetism. These equations can prove that it is possible to detect vibrations of the
electromagnetic field. The vibrations are called electromagnetic waves.

26. George Stephenson - English engineer. In 1815 he built the first railway. In that
year he built a steam engine, and in 1825 he built a railway line. Railway provided
a possibility to move goods massively from one place to another.

27. Henry Ford - industrialist, the owner of the car factory “Ford Motor Company”. He
raised the standard of living all around the world. His famous Model T was made in
1908. Eventually, the company sold about 15 million of cars.

28. The yellow press - this press is
different from the standard
press in terms of its content and
form. The main difference is that
the published information may
be unreliable and unethical. The
most attractive topics focus on
famous people’s lives.

29. Period of the Industrial Revolution is the period of technological,
economic and social changes which started in the XVIII century in
England and later reached other European and North American
countries, Japan. Industrial revolution included not only technological
innovations, but also influenced the society, economy, urban
development and politics.

30. Education period - more attention was devoted to science.
Capitalism - is an economic system in which trade, industry, and the means of production are privately owned.
Continental blockade - published regulations which banned other countries to trade with England.
Urbanization - urban sprawl, the increase of citizens.
Emigration is the act of leaving one's native country with the intent to settle elsewhere.
Industrialization is the period of social and economic change that transforms a human group from
an agrarian society into an industrial one.
Yellow press is a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and uses eye-
catching headlines to sell more newspapers.
“Titanic” was the fastest and the greatest ship at that time.
Heridity is the passing of phenotypic traits from parents to their offspring, either through asexual
reproduction or sexual reproduction.
Relativity in physics usually encompasses two theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general
relativity. Special relativity is a theory of the structure of space-time. General relativity is a theory of
gravitation.
