passage 1
circulatory systems are vital to every organism. in some, this system is simple. for example, in earthworms, the "heart" is just five branching blood vessels near the worm's head. the worm's heart does not pump; instead, blood and fluid move through the worm as it moves through the soil. the octopus, a more complex animal, has three hearts because its main heart does not pump strongly. humans only have one heart that is divided into four chambers. these chambers separate oxygen-rich blood from blood rich in carbon dioxide. regardless of its size, the circulatory performs many important jobs.

passage 2
ptolemy commences with laying down the undoubted truth that the shape of the earth is globular. the proofs which he gives of this fundamental fact are quite satisfactory; they are indeed the same proofs as we give today. there is, first of all, the well-known circumstance of which our books on geography remind us, that when an object is viewed at a distance across the sea, the lower part of the object appears cut off by the interposing curved mass of water.
(from great astronomers by robert stawell ball)

(from great expectations by charles dickens)
