The famous scientist and thinker, Charles Robert Darwin (查尔斯·罗伯特·达尔文), was born in England on February 12, 1809. As a boy, Charles liked to go for walks in the fields and forests. He enjoyed watching nature, and comparing what he saw with everything he had read in science books. He also liked collecting very much. He collected many things, birds, eggs, stones and leaves.

At sixteen, Darwin was sent to Edinburgh University (爱丁堡大学) to become a doctor. But he was interested in the history of nature.
