died:May 24,1543May 24,1543 He was one of the first scientists to use mathematical observations to collect information.He believed the sun is the center of the universe and the earth and other planets went around it.41.What was Copernicus theory?How did he draw the conclusion?How did he feel?Why?The sun is the centre of the solar system.His mathematical calculationssurprisedBecause the powerful Christian Church would have punished him for even suggesting such an idea5(1)What was his theory about?(Para 1)All his mathematical calculations led to the same conclusion:6that the earth was not the centre of the solar system.Only if you put the sun there did the movements of the other planets in the sky make sense.Some planets in the sky seemed to_,move _and then go _in a loop.Others appeared

the solar system with the earth at its centreShowing Copernicus theoryA diagram showing the solar system with the sun at its centre19Persuasive writing(Please refer to P8 Learning Tip)Writing Task:P7.3.Now writing a short letter asking Copernicus to publish his ideas so everyone can read them.First you need to collect your ideas.For example:He believes his new theory is true.There are problems with the present theory.He has done many years of observations to prove his new theory is true.Science cant develop unless people publish their ideas.Time will show if his theory is true or not.20Here is a plan:Beginning:Tell Copernicus who you are and why you want him to publish his ideas.Paragraph 1:Reason 1 and evidence.Paragraph 2:Reason 2 and evidence.Summing up:Ask him to think again about publishing his ideas.21One possible version:Dear Nicolaus Copernicus,I am a student studying astronomy and I would very much like to read your new theory about the solar system.I hope you will publish it for several reasons.I understand the problems with the present theory.The way the planets move is not what you would expect if the earth was the certre of the universe.It is also odd that the brightness of some stars seems to change.So I agree with you that we need a new theory.22I know your observations have been very carefully carried out over many years.Now you must have the courage to publish them.Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs.I know you worry about what will happen if you publish your new theory.No matter how people oppose it,time will show if your ideas are right or wrong.So I hope you will feel you can publish your new theory.Yours sincerely,Zhang Hua23 Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer(1473-1543).Born in Torun,he began his university studies in Krakow in 1491,where he studied canon law and Latin and Greek classics.However he also had an interest in mathematics and astronomy.After obtaining his degree of Doctor of Canon Law(教会法教会法规博士学位博士学位)in Italy in 1503,Copernicus returned home to Warmia in Poland to serve as Canon(=priest).In 1530,Copernicus completed his great work De Revolutionibus(天体运行天体运行论).Copernicus knew that these findings would lead him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church(罗马天主教教徒罗马天主教教徒),so he was24in no hurry to publish his theory.He only published it as he lay dying in 1543.Though Copernicus did not live to hear of its extraordinary impact,the book which first suggested that the Sun,not the Earth,is the centre of the universe is now recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time.251.Surf the Internet and get more information about Copernicus.:/blupete
