Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below 

Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy, in 1564. His family was poor, but Galileo’s parents paid for him to go to school. At first Galileo planned to become a doctor, but he changed his mind. He liked a different kind of science—the kind we now call physics. In Galileo’s time, not much was known about how objects moved. Centuries earlier, a Greek named Aristotle had written down his ideas about motion. Galileo did experiments that showed how things really moved. For example, Aristotle thought that a heavier object would fall faster than a lighter one of the same size and shape. Then Galileo tested the idea. He dropped two balls from a high tower and discovered that they hit the ground at the same time!
In later years, Galileo became interested in how the stars and planets move. He watched the night sky with a telescope he built himself. Once again, he saw things no one had ever seen before. For example, he saw that the moon was bumpy. Galileo also realized from his observations that the Earth was moving around the sun.
Unfortunately, Galileo’s statements got him into trouble. Most people at that time believed that the Earth was at the centre of the universe with the sun travelling around it, but Galileo said it was untrue and was sent to jail. Galileo died in 1642, but his work helped to change the world. He is sometimes called the “father of modern science” because he showed us how important it is to look carefully at things and to test out ideas with experiments.
