下面是2023年1月SAT寫作話題。關(guān)于審題，這是一個難題。同學們在考場上需要從腦海里面把準備的例子迅速想一遍，看看哪個更適合此題目。由于限定了discovery，同學們應(yīng)該能快速想到伽利略或者哥白尼。前者做出了偉大的發(fā)現(xiàn)，比如兩球下降的正確理論；后者發(fā)現(xiàn)了日心說。

　　Do people make the greatest discoveries by exploring what is unfamiliar to them or by paying close attention to what seems familiar?

　　以前者為例，他發(fā)現(xiàn)的理論很明顯是符合題干中的后者的，因為兩球下降之前就有過相關(guān)理論，他對此熟悉的理論做了分析研究，最終有了正確的偉大的發(fā)現(xiàn)。

　　還是給大家找一篇文章作為素材的參考，習作的題目是is it necessary to question the authority?

　　Another story of Galileo is also a very typical one to explain the importance of challenging the authority. It is known to us all that Aristotle is a great philosopher in ancient Greece and is widely regarded as the most erudite mind so far. His theories, as a result, are firmly believed by almost everyone in the Middle Age.

　　However, Galileo, a talented physicist at that time, found one of Aristotles theories that the velocities of two falling weights are proportional to their weights incorrect through his thousands of experiments.

　　He finally decided to show his research results by doing an experiment on the Leaning Tower of Pisa in front of the public, which later turned out to be a blockbuster in the field of physics.

　　Galileo dropped two iron balls of different weights to the ground and everybody present witnessed the historic moment that the two balls reached the ground at exactly the same time.

　　Galileos experiments and discoveries violently challenged that of Aristotle and started a revolutionary debate among scientists. More importantly, he corrected thousands of peoples wrong beliefs and contributed a lot to the modern physics.
