35. There was strong competition between scientists in Renaissance Europe. 
Keywords: competition, scientists, Renaissance Europe 
In paragraph 2, the writer says that ” The European Renaissance (c/14 -16
century) is sometimes called the „revival of learning‟, a time of renewed
interest in the „lost knowledge‟ of classical times. At the same time, however, 
scholars also began to test and extend this knowledge. The emergent nation states 
of Europe developed competitive interests in world exploration and the
development of trade.” We see that in the European Renaissance, scholars
tested and developed the knowledge of classical times, and countries in
Europe competed with one another in world exploitation and the development
of trade. However, there is no information about competition between scientists in 
the passage.

36. The most important scientific development of the Renaissance period was 
the discovery of magnetism. 
Keywords: most important, Renaissance, discovery of magnetism 
At the end of paragraph 2, the writer says that: “Such expansion, which was to
take the English language west to America and east to India, was supported
by scientific developments such as the discovery of magnetism (and hence the 
invention of the compass), improvements in cartography and – perhaps the most 
important scientific revolution of them all – the new theories of astronomy and 
movement of the Earth in relation to the planets and stars”. The discovery of 
magnetism is one of many other inventions. And the most important scientific 
revolution of them all were the new theories of astronomy and movement of the 
earth in relation to the planet and stars developed by Copernicus.
