3. Summary: Leonardo Da Vinci was a genius, a pioneer in fields as diverse as
anatomy and hydrodynamics. He was a young engineer trained in Florence
and had the opportunity to come into direct contact with Filippo
Brunelleschi's lifting and construction equipment. He designed the "tank"
and made a strong impression on the recruiters. He was also the one who
saw clearly how the design of machines must be informed by the laws of
mathematical physics instead of relying solely on practice. Leonardo's
famous efforts in inventing various types of airplanes are due to the
imitation of nature.
4. Useful vocabulary:
Take someone down a peg: giảm bớt tầm quan trọng của một người
Ahead of one’s time: được nhìn nhận là tài năng hơn những người khác
Memorandum / mem.ə ræn.dəm/ˌ ˈ (n): a short written report prepared specially for a
person or group of people that contains information about a particular matter
Battlefield / bæt.əl.fi ld/ ˈ ː (n): a place where a battle is being fought or has been
fought in the past
Envisage / n v z. d / ɪ ˈ ɪ ɪ ʒ (v): to imagine or expect something in the future, especially
something good
5. Your thoughts: I know the painter Leonardo da Vinci from the famous
paintings Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. I didn't know that he was also a
genius, a pioneer in fields as diverse as anatomy and hydrodynamics. He is
considered one of the most almighty geniuses in human history. His works
and productions showcase his rare talent and creativity. I really admire his
talent.
