Einstein was not good at math when he was a child? 15 years old can master calculus.
From childhood to adulthood, we have heard many allusions about celebrities, or anecdotes, or inspiring. These allusions are widely used in every Chinese composition from primary school to high school, and they have become old friends of our school days. But have we ever thought that these allusions that have more or less influenced our growth are really true?

1 Einstein is not good at math? Our impression is that.

Einstein was afraid to look people in the eye when he was a child. He didn't learn to speak until he was about three years old. Before the age of seven, he was very taciturn. In the eyes of his friends, he is an inferior and autistic guy. He doesn't do well in math and often gets a point in the exam. Even the Xiao Mu stool required by the teacher can't be done well, making it the "ugliest in the world" in the eyes of the teacher. But it is such a stupid and frustrated Xiong Haizi who has become one of the greatest physicists in the world through his continuous efforts.

But Einstein was also very powerful when he was a child, and he was not as miserable as described in those articles we saw. His math scores are always true, but in the German teaching grading system, there are six grades: 1-6 * * *, and one grade is the best level. Einstein himself responded to this rumor: "I have never failed in mathematics. I have mastered calculus since 15 years old." Think about how many of us saw that calculus is still on the edge when we were in college, and others can still fully master it at the age of 65,438+05. Who can believe such a genius? Interestingly, his statement that he failed in mathematics is false, but great physicists do have a record of failing in physics. Once again, in Einstein's exhibition, a record of Instad's study at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich revealed the past to us.

2 Edison's famous words and the second half sentence? Our impression is that.

Edison's famous saying "Genius is 99% sweat and 1% talent" can rank first in the golden sentence list of primary school composition. For Ge Jun Jr., who was determined to become a scientist since childhood, the inspiration was as high as 99 percentage points. However, the second half of the famous saying recently circulated on the Internet: "However, that one percent of talent is much more important than ninety-nine percent of sweat." I broke the dream of being a scientist when I was a child, and by the way, I rearranged the three views of most netizens, which aroused the enthusiasm of everyone's official rumors.

But this anti-official rumor is itself a rumor. This sentence first came from the September issue of Harper's Monthly, 1932. The original English translation published in the monthly magazine may be like this: "I didn't get an invention by accident." When I see a social demand worthy of people's energy and material resources to meet, I will do experiments again and again until it is realized. This is ultimately attributed to one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. Therefore, a genius is just a smart person who can often finish his work. There was no second sentence. This classic famous sentence was also quoted by Edison, but it became Edison's golden sentence over time. Those so-called second half sentences are probably more an expression of dissatisfaction with China's education system.

3 Bill Gates dropped out of school to start a business? Our impression is that.

The story of Bill Gates dropping out of Harvard and becoming the richest man in the world has inspired many enthusiastic young people who are interested in starting a business in the cold wind. The story has almost become Jin Dian, an entrepreneurial dog with only entrepreneurial dreams and no entrepreneurial strength. Some teenagers who actually don't like learning regard dropping out of school as the secret key to open the door to entrepreneurship. When you stop studying, you will finally mention the word entrepreneurship to others. Zuckerberg, the descendant of Bill Gates, dropped out of school and founded Facebook, which further plated a layer of gold for the classic model of dropping out of school and starting a business.

Just watch the thief eat meat, not watch the thief get beaten. Gates' success can't be achieved by dropping out of school casually. Gates was born in a lawyer's family, and his family is quite good. He grew up in various expensive private schools. In fact, Gates, who was safe and sound, chose to speak with his own strength, and accumulated nearly 10,000 hours of programming experience in middle school. In that era when computers were not popular, what was the concept of programming for nearly 10 thousand hours in middle school? Not every rich second generation works as hard as Gates. Gates dropped out of Harvard because he didn't think he could learn anything useful at Harvard. In order not to waste time, he decided to drop out of school. Success is not a simple 99% sweat+1% talent, but a very high talent+higher diligence than ordinary people+superior environment+a little luck.

4 "As the saying goes," killing people.

The labels "As the saying goes" and "The ancients said" are almost all symbols of truth in debates, TV dramas and movies, which makes people unable to refute them. However, many of these statements are misinformation, distorting the original intention of the people who said these words, and the result is counterproductive. Why many ridiculous opinions of many people provide theoretical basis.

If a person does not think for himself, heaven will destroy him-everyone for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost.

Original intention: If people don't cultivate themselves and improve themselves, they will be destroyed by the devil.

As the saying goes, most people now understand that people will die if they don't do it for themselves, and they don't know which selfish person started to spread the truth like this.

A small amount is not a gentleman, but a nontoxic husband.

Original intention: change a word and ruin a string of sentences. People are originally "over-lived, but not married", bearing but not bearing.

As the saying goes: more luck than luck?

No punishment for doctors, no courtesy for Shu Ren.

Intention: You won't be exempted from punishment just because you are a doctor, and you can't neglect your manners just because the other person is a civilian.

As the saying goes, it means the opposite. Punishment can't be used on doctors. The poor deserve it. ...

return good for evil

Original intention: This is typical and the second half of the sentence series. The original text is like this: or: "How about good for evil? Confucius said, "How can I repay you? Deal with complaints directly and repay kindness with kindness. Confucius didn't teach us to repay evil with good.

As the saying goes: nowadays, it means to suppress good and vertical evil. If you hit the left face, you have to stretch your right face, which is very similar to Christian doctrine.

When both sides are in a humble situation, help each other

Original intention: Another masterpiece without the second half sentence. The original text is like this: "Spring is dry, fish are on land. It's better to forget each other in Jianghu. I no longer believe in love.

As the saying goes, even if the meaning of the original text is misinterpreted, it is not bad to create such a wonderful idiom.

bu xiao you san

There are three kinds of unfilial, among which the responsibility of not guarding future generations is the greatest. The responsibility of future generations has little to do with having children.

As the saying goes: not having children is the biggest unfilial, which has become a golden sentence for parents-in-law to arrange for their daughter-in-law with fertility difficulties.

label

Many familiar allusions and old sayings are inconsistent with the original intention and even fictional. As the saying goes, we have developed inertial thinking, and we seldom think about why we do it, right?
