in 2002, the russian mathematician grigori perelman proved the poincaré conjecture. this is a very serious discovery in mathematics. it was one of the seven tasks of the millennium. for this work, he received the prestigious fields medal, an analogue of the nobel prize in mathematics.
2. quantum clock.
quantum clocks are the most accurate chronometer in the world, surpassing all previously existing ones. nobel laureates of 2012 serge arosh and david wineland made a discovery that allowed to overcome the quantum barrier.
3. the discovery of eris.
the eris is the second after the massive pluto massive dwarf planet of the solar system. it was the discovery of eris from pluto that ceased to be the ninth planet, and passed into the category of "dwarf".
4. created the first synthetic bacterial cell.
in 2010, scientists from the craig venter institute created the first fully synthetic chromosome with the genome. when it was embedded in a bacterial cell devoid of genetic material, it began to function and divide according to the laws prescribed by the new genome.
5. higgs boson.
this was experimental evidence of the existence of the higgs boson. the practical significance of the discovery of the higgs boson is that scientists are opening up prospects for the development of anti-gravity and the development of engines that do not require energy to operate.
My Future Profession (Journalist) I decided to be a journalist. I think it is an interesting and useful profession. I like to watch TV, listen to the radio, read newspapers and magazines. I like everything which connected with mass media. I have a hobby. My friends and I are publishing a small newspaper once a month in our school. We write articles about school events, life of young people, jokes, draw pictures and caricatures. My favourite school subjects are history and literature. I like the profession of a journalist. They meet many people. They try to understand what is going on in the world, or the country, or the city and try to explain it to other people. I think that the work of a journalist is very much like that of historian. A historian studies and tries to explain events of the past and a journalist does the same about the present. But for me to be a journalist is much more interesting than to be a historian because you deal with real events that are happening right now so you can even influence them. So journalists can influence the history. That is why I want to be a journalist.
