【分析】
本题为选词填空题，需先明确各词汇及短语的含义、词性，再结合句子的语法结构、上下文语境逐一匹配：首先梳理选项：wisdom（智慧，名词）、childhood（童年，名词）、spread（传播，动词，过去式同原形）、collect（收集，动词）、admirable（令人钦佩的，形容词）、lives on（永存，动词短语）、discoveries（发现，名词复数）；再结合每个空的语境和语法要求选择对应词汇。
【解析】
1. 66空：由并列连词and可知，需与名词courage（勇气）并列，great后接名词，wisdom（智慧）符合语境，故填wisdom；
2. 67空：many后接可数名词复数，结合牛顿的科学成就，discoveries（发现）符合，故填discoveries；
3. 68空：句子缺少谓语动词，结合“把科学知识传播给世界”的语境，spread（传播，过去式为spread）符合，故填spread；
4. 69空：be动词后接形容词，结合“我们都敬仰他”的语境，admirable（令人钦佩的）符合，故填admirable；
5. 70空：句子缺少谓语，结合“精神永存”的语境，lives on（永存）符合，故填lives on。
