Charles Lyell is a Scottish geologist. He was born into a wealthy family on 14 November 1797. His father, who was a scientist, kept the study well filled with books on every subject, including geology. Lyell was not a hard- working student at school, and he much preferred to have a walk in the New Forest. His first scientific hobby was collecting butterflies and insects, which he continued doing for many years. His observations(观察力) went far beyond those of other boys, and later this talent for collecting led to many important discoveries.

At the age of 19. Lyell entered Exeter College Oxford, where his interest in math and geology was developed. His interest in geology was encouraged by the wonderful lectures of William Buckland who was widely known for his effort to prove Noah's Flood by the studies of fossils. Lyell spent his long vacations travelling and making geological studies.

In 1827, Lyell started a full- time job in geology and began to plan a book which included natural explanations for geological things. He explored in Italy. Poor roads and hotels made his travel very difficult, but in the area around Mount Etna he finally confirmed his guess and got the answer he wanted.

Returning to London, he set to work immediately on his book, Principles of Geology, the first volume of which was published in July 1830. Charles Darwin once mentioned the book and said," Historians in the future will realize that the book has caused a revolution(革命) in the natural science." The book also had some influence on Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution.

In 1848, Lyell was knighted for his scientific achievements. Lyell became more and more famous and he received many awards in his lifetime.

Many years ago, a Spanish officer named Coronado he ard the story of seven great cities. "The walls of these cities are made of gold, " his friends told him. "The people eat meat from golden plates and wear 1  clothes, " they said. They called these cities the Seven Cities of Gold. Coronado believed what his friends said 2

Coronado was 8 . The cities were dirty and brown. The people ate food from 9  bowls. Their clothes were also very common. Coronado saw the cities as old places. "What 10  to the cities of gold?" he thought. "Did someone 11  come and take the gold?"

That night, the people of the cities entertained(款待) Coronado and his men and served them food. They 12  Coronado to go home. "There is no gold here, " they told him. Coronado was angry. Did his friends lie(撒谎) to him?

Coronado 13  the next morning when the sun rose. He looked back 14  the city one more time. The sun sh one on the dirty houses. Coronado thought he saw a bit of gold. Were his friends right after all?"No, " he told himself. "It's just the 15 . " Then he turned away and went home.
