A

Pierre de Fermat was born on August 17 in 1601 in Beaumont-de-Lomagne, France. He was a famous French mathematician who is often called the founder of the modern theory of numbers. Fermat was one of the two leading mathematicians of the first half of the 17th century (the other was René Descart). 1_____ He was also regarded as the inventor of differential calculus, and a co-founder of the theory of probability.

B

What strikes as a surprise is that Fermat never considered doing research in Mathematics his job. Although Fermat studied law when he was at college, he developed strong love for foreign languages, literature and mathematics. He read a lot of documents and taught himself in many fields. As early as 1629 Fermat began a lot of research on mathematical theories including algebra and geometry. 2_____ He served in the local parliament at Toulouse, becoming councillor in 1634. In 1638 he was named to the Criminal Court. Despite his busy work at the court, Fermat never stopped learning and doing mathematics. In 1679, he published Introduction to Loci in which he presented that the study of loci, or sets of points with certain characteristics, could be facilitated by the application of algebra to geometry through a coordinate system.

C

The most interesting story about Fermat should be his last theorem, which is also known as Fermat's great theorem. It is a statement that there are no natural numbers x, y, z such that x + y = z", in which n is a natural number greater than 2. In 1636, Fermat, the distinguished mathematician, wrote in his copy of the Arithmetica that he had discovered a truly proof of this theorem, but the margin of the book was too small for him to write it down. 3_____ No one could prove or disprove Fermat's last theorem. Not until 1993 could the English mathematician Andrew Wiles devise a proof of this theorem. 4_____ Andrew Wiles had been interested in Fermat's last theorem since the age of ten. His years of searching for an answer finally became successful.

6 SPEAKING Work in pairs. Discuss the following question. Can you guess why Fermat never considered doing research his job? Làm việc theo cặp. Thảo luận câu hỏi sau đây. Bạn có thể đoán tại sao Fermat chưa bao giờ cân nhắc việc nghiên cứu công việc của mình không?

Đáp án gợi ý

I think Fermat never considered doing research his job because he was a lawyer by profession and worked in the parliament and the Criminal Court. Mathematics was something he did out of personal interest, not for money. He had many other passions, like foreign languages and literature, so his research in mathematics was more like a hobby than a career.

Hướng dẫn dịch

Tôi nghĩ Fermat chưa bao giờ coi nghiên cứu là công việc của mình vì ông là luật sư, làm việc tại quốc hội và tòa án hình sự. Toán học là điều ông theo đuổi vì sở thích cá nhân, không phải vì tiền. Ông có nhiều đam mê khác, như ngoại ngữ và văn học, nên nghiên cứu toán học của ông giống như một sở thích hơn là một nghề nghiệp.
