Michael Faraday, an English experimental physicist, was the son of a poor blacksmith. After very little schooling he was apprenticed to a bookbinder. The boy worked hard all day and studied at night. One day a man a entering the shop found a boy at work binding an encyclopedia, and at the same time studying hard at the article on electricity in it. The man was surprised to see the boy so interested in a very difficult subject and questioned him. He found out that Faraday, working late at night, had already been making experiments of his own, though he was too poor to possess anything but a home-made battery! When a man gave him four tickets for the lectures which Sir Humphry Davy was then delivering at the Royal Institute, the boy was as much delighted as if someone had given him a fortune. He went to the lectures and made notes of what he heard. At the end of the lectures, he sent his notes to the great scientist and asked him for work. Later, Davy made him his assistant. This began his scientific career. Viết T (True) nếu câu sau đây đúng với bài đọc, hoặc F (False) nếu câu sau đây không đúng với bài đọc. Viết số câu và T ( true) hoặc F (False) vào giấy làm bài. 1.
