PLEASE HELP The Scientific Revolution

The Scientific Revolution took place during the 16th and 17th centuries. Many cultures influenced the beginning of the Scientific Revolution, including Greek, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim cultures.
In the ancient world, Greek was the language of science. Greek sharply decreased in usage as the Roman Empire expanded and the use of Latin became more widespread. During the Renaissance, scholars became increasingly interested in classical ideas and philosophy. They studied Greek again and were able to translate texts that had been otherwise lost.
Also, due to the Medieval Crusades, Europeans began to have more contact with the Middle East. As a result, the Western world benefited greatly from contact with Islamic cultures. Knowledge of science, medicine, and even architecture were shared between the two cultures.
In addition to the sharing of ideas between Europe and the Middle East, the humanism movement of the Renaissance furthered the Scientific Revolution. This European humanist movement focused on human potential. The movement valued logical reasoning and observation over the Christian values of humility and passivity. This movement developed from the rediscovery of Greek and Latin texts.
Finally, global exploration also served as a springboard for the Scientific Revolution. As explorers came back from the New World and Asia, they shared new information and new goods. People became curious about the knowledge and the practices of other cultures. People wanted to know even more about the world and how it worked.
