Charles Darwin lived an unusually quiet life. In 1842, Darwin and his wife Emma moved from
London to Kent in southern England to have as little disturbance（烦扰）as possible. They already had two
children then, and would go on to have eight more in the country.
Darwin, had very regular habits. He rose early and went for a walk, After breakfast he worked in his
study until 9:30 am, his most productive time of the day, and then read his letters lying on the sofa before
returning to work.
At midday he would go for another walk with his dog, stopping at his greenhouse to check his
experiments. Then he would go for another walk around an area of woodland. While walking on his “thinking
path”, Darwin would consider his unsolved scientific problems.
After lunch he read the newspaper and wrote letters. His network of friends provided information
from all corners of the world.
The Darwins were not very strict parents and the children were always seen running wild. Their father
worked patiently with a background of happy shouts and little footsteps walking past his study door. 此卷只装订不密封
