  Cloze Test

  Science means knowledge but every knowledge is not science. I know from my own eyesight that our dog, Chippy likes papaya; I know from a book that Akbar was the 21 of Babar, and 22 in 1605; and I know from the radio that India did not do well in the latest Test matches. We can call these 23 of knowledge facts but they are not science.

  Science starts with facts, but. Not with facts which have 24 to do with each other, like the facts about our dog, cricket and the Mughal ruler; those facts are not related in any way and so have nothing 25 with science. Science starts with observation.
