Kahlo was born Magdalena Carmen Frieda Kahlo y Calderón on July 6, 1907, in Coyoacán, Mexico City, Mexico.
Kahlo's father, Wilhelm (also called Guillermo), was a German photographer who had immigrated to Mexico where he met and married her mother Matilde. She had two older sisters, Matilde and Adriana, and her younger sister, Cristina, was born the year after Kahlo.
Around the age of six, Kahlo contracted polio, which caused her to be bedridden for nine months. While she recovered from the illness, she limped when she walked because the disease had damaged her right leg and foot. Her father encouraged her to play soccer, go swimming, and even wrestle — highly unusual moves for a girl at the time — to help aid in her recovery.

Ramos first started playing at Camas CF by the age of 6. He was such a good football player as a kid so he was nicknamed as "Bernd Schuster" the great German goal scorer by his friends.  He was transferred to Real Madrid in 2005 at the age of 19 and he continuously played in Real Madrid for 16 years. Although Ramos was a defender, he managed to score 101 goals in Real Madrid.
During  his career in Real Madrid, he became the nation's youngest player to ever reach 100 caps which means he caught the ball a hundred times. He currently holds the record as the most capped player in the history of the Spanish National team. In 2021 He got transferred to Paris Saint German and he still plays there at the age of 35.
The reason why I wrote about him on this assignment is because he inspired me to play football as a defender.

Ludwig Van Beethoven was born in December 1770, but no-one is completely sure on which date. He was baptized on the 17th.
The earliest recorded piece that Beethoven composed is a set of nine piano variations, composed in 1782.
Beethoven moved to Vienna in 1792, where he met influential composers like Haydn and began to compose in earnest.
By 1796, he had begun to suffer from tinnitus and was losing his hearing.
Beethoven composed his Piano Sonata No. 14 ('Moonlight') in 1802.
The Third Symphony, known as the 'Eroica', was completed in 1804. It went on to redefine the symphony as a genre.
The opening motif to the Fifth Symphony from 1808 is one of the most famous musical excerpts in history.
The 'middle period' of Beethoven's career also saw him compose piano works like the Waldstein and Apassionata sonatas, as well as his only opera, Fidelio, which went through countless rewrites and revisions.
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, the 'Choral' from 1824, is another work of his that has remained infinitely popular. It was the first time that a composer had used choral voices in a major symphony.
Ill health and increasing deafness caused a drop in productivity at the end of Beethoven's life, but he still managed to produce important works like his 'Late Quartets' in 1825, which were wildly inventive for the time.
Beethoven died in Vienna on the 26th March 1827 after a long illness that has variously been attributed to alcohol, hepatitis, cirrhosis and pneumonia.
Did you know?
Beethoven composed only one opera, Fidelio, which took years to get right. He re-wrote one aria no fewer than 18 times and came up with four different overtures before deciding upon the one he liked.

professor, and author who performed groundbreaking work in physics and cosmology.
At age 21, while studying cosmology at the University of Cambridge,
he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). 
Part of his life story was depicted in the 2014 film The Theory of Everything.
Hawking's birth came at an inopportune time for his parents, who didn't have much money. 
The political climate was also tense,
 as England was dealing with World War II and the onslaught of German bombs in London,
 where the couple was living as Frank Hawking undertook research in medicine. 
Hawking entered University College at the University of Oxford at the age of 17. 
Although he expressed a desire to study mathematics,
 Oxford didn't offer a degree in that specialty,
 so Hawking gravitated toward physics and, more specifically, cosmology.
He died at the age of 76 at his home in Cambridge, England, on March 14, 2018.
Insufficient due to ALS, which Stephen Hawking has yet to catch 21 and has no cure.
Overall he was one of the greatest scientists in history.
