[00:41.11]Then,in 1863,

[00:43.68]he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon

[00:48.36]The success of this book encouraged him

[00:50.79]to write more stories such as

[00:53.31]A Journey to the Center of the Earth(1864)

[00:57.38]and from the Earth to the Moon(1865).

[01:02.15]In the 19th century,

[01:15.46]Verne's writing included many predictions 2

[01:18.02]for the 20th century

[01:19.80]and many of them came true.

[01:22.48]He described space flight,movies,

[01:25.26]and air conditioning,

[01:26.68]a long time before they appeared.

[01:29.29]These books were very successful

[01:31.57]and they made Verne rich.

[01:33.85]Jules Verne's books have been the subjects

[01:36.33]for many movies.

[01:38.02]20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

[01:40.50]was a successful movie for Walt Disney.

[01:43.67]It was the first Disney movie

[01:45.45]to use real actors instead of cartoon drawings.

[01:49.50]Around the World in Eighty Days

[01:52.04]is another famous movie based on

[01:54.18]one of Verne's books .

[01:55.92]The main character is an Englishman 3

[01:57.75]called Phileas Fogg.

[01:59.94]For him,the most important thing is

[02:02.46]to be always on time!
