Science fiction is a popular kind of writing, and many people think of Jules Verne (凡尔纳) as the father of science fiction. He was born in France in 1828. His father wanted him to become a lawyer, but from his early 20s Verne decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the
theater. Then, in 1863, he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon. The success of this book encouraged him to write more stories such as A Journey to the Center of the Earth ( 1864) and
From the Earth to the Moon ( 1865) .
In the 19th century, many people were interested in science and inventions. Jules Verne wrote
