Read the following text and answer the question!
Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was an astronomer and a scientist. Galileo developed a superior telescope and made many significant discoveries in astronomy. He was sentenced to life imprisonment by the inquisition for his support for the Copernican theory that the sun was at the center of the solar system.
Galileo was born in Florence, Italy in 1564 to a poor but noble family. His parents recognized their child's innate intelligence and talents, so they made sacrifices to have him educated. At his father's insistence, Galileo studied the profitable career of medicine. However, at the University of Pisa, Galileo became fascinated in a wide range of subjects. He was also critical of many Aristotle's teaching which had dominated education for the past 2,000 years.
Galileo was appointed to be a mathematics professor at the University of Pisa, but his strident criticisms of Aristotle left him isolated among his contemporaries. After three years of persecution, he resigned and went to the University of Padua, where he taught maths. His entertaining lectures attracted a large following, and he was able to spend the next 18 years pursuing his interests in astronomy and mechanics.
From Galileo Galilei's biography, we can learn that ...
We must never go against the beliefs of the society to avoid getting imprisoned.
When we believe in something, we must stay faithful to it no matter how hard.
We must always believe to society to escape from getting persecuted.
We must sacrifice everything in our life to get ourselves educated.
We should spend a long time to pursue our interests.
