doctor and helped Fleming to go to university and study medicine. So he wentto London University and in
1906 he became a doctor. In 1915, Fleming married Sarah McElroy, an Irish woman. They had one son.
During the First World War, many soldiers died in hospital because they didn’t have the right medicines.
So after the war, Fleming tried to find a drug that could help them. He worked for many years and in 1928
he discovered a new drug and he called it “penicillin”. He later worked with an Australian and a German

Clothes can tell a lot about person. Some people like very colorful clothes because they want
everyone to look at them and they want to be the center of things. Others like to wear nice clothes,
but their clothes are not colorful or fancy. They do not like people to look at them. Clothes today
are very different from the clothes of the 1800s. One difference is the way they look. For example,
in 1800s, all women wore dress. The dresses all had long skirts. But today, women do not wear
dresses with long skirts. Sometimes they wear short skirts. Sometimes they wear pants. Another
difference between 1800s and today is the cloth. In the 1800s, clothes were made only from
natural kinds of cloth. They were made from cotton, wool, silk. But today, there are many kinds of
man-made cloth. A lot of clothes are now made from nylon, rayon or polyester.
