Newton's short stories 1: Newton was humiliated and angry. Newton was clever when he was a child, but he didn't study hard. He is absorbed in doing manual work and thinking. Therefore, in the eyes of teachers and classmates, he is a silly boy and his academic performance is not good.
At the age of thirteen, little Newton took a windmill to school. Students gather around to see, yo! This windmill is quite clever, Newton himself said with a smile, what about my windmill? What a coincidence! ?
Just when a bunch of little guys blinked and envied Newton, a classmate said in a strange voice, Yes, that's clever. ? This classmate is very ironic, because he usually does well in school and has always been above Newton. Seeing Newton performing in front of him today, he was unconvinced and a little jealous. Newton didn't hear what the classmate said, so he went on to say, yes, as luck would have it, I made it myself last night. ?
Hearing Newton's increasingly arrogant words, the student who studied well raised his voice and said, yes, your little windmill is in good shape, but why did it turn? Do you understand this principle?
? Do you understand this principle? These words were like a biting cold wind blowing in Newton's face. I don't know if it's cold or painful. He was too embarrassed to speak.
That classmate saw Newton blush, and he was even more excited: Hum! I can't say it. I regret that I can't tell the principle of what I have done. What does this mean? This means you are like a carpenter! ?
Newton was ashamed of his words. He walked away with a sad face.
At this time, a group of small students who once surrounded Newton also looked at him strangely. ? Carpenter! Carpenter! I can't even tell the principle, so let's show it here. ? As he spoke, some students began to beat his windmill, and other students followed. Too many cooks smashed Newton's windmill to pieces.
Newton was very sad. His weak physical strength can't beat those children. He had to endure this injustice and shed tears.
After what happened, Newton thought carefully: Why did these students bully me? I didn't live up to my expectations? Regret, regret yourself. Why don't you make up your mind to learn your lessons well? The night is already deep, and little Newton is still thinking about what happened during the day. Finally, I made up my mind: I must learn my lessons well.
People are ambitious. Little Newton seems to be a different person since he decided to study hard. He listens to the teacher carefully in class and reviews his lessons carefully after class. When he is free, he won't forget his handicrafts. It didn't take long for his academic performance to catch up, surpassing scolding him. Carpenter? This classmate became an excellent student in the class.
This is the story of the great scientist Newton when he was a child. Newton did not use the great achievements of the future to avoid this disgraceful past. He said: If I hadn't been insulted by my friends at that time, I'm afraid I would have been an unreasonable carpenter all my life. ?
Newton's short story 2: Newton solved the mystery of fire One Sunday morning, scientist Newton went to church as usual. While he was still washing his face, it suddenly occurred to him that there was something to add in the paper he had just written. Without even wiping the water from his face, he ran to the desk and began to write. The water drops on his face didn't wipe off the manuscript paper.
After Newton finished writing, he wiped his face comfortably with a towel, changed his clothes and went to church. After mass, he came home and found that the bookstore was on fire and the servants were busy putting out the fire. Thanks to the quick rescue, the fire was quickly put out. However, many precious manuscripts have been reduced to ashes. This loss is irreparable, which makes Newton feel unprecedented sadness.
? How did the fire start? Newton asked the servant.
? I wonder if the owner forgot to blow out the candle.
? No, I didn't wash my face until I blew out the candle. At this time, it is already dawn, so there is no need to light candles.
Later, I went back to the study, added a pen to the manuscript and went out. ? Newton said with great confidence.
And this is completely in line with the facts.
? Are there any experimental lenses on the table, sir? If this is a lens, it will form a focus and catch fire when it is irradiated by sunlight. ? The servant has served Newton for a long time and has a lot of scientific knowledge in his mind.
After asking this question, Newton deliberately checked the charred desktop again, and didn't see any lenses, only a glass plate with a length of 20 cm and a width of 10 cm, mixed with charred manuscripts and books.
? Look! Don't you have a glass plate, sir?
? No, it's just an ordinary glass plate. It won't catch fire ? Newton thought about it and said, Maybe someone was jealous of my research and threw it into the fire through the window. Otherwise, how could a fire break out?
However, the servant obviously knew that no one had been here. He was cleaning the yard before the fire. If someone comes in, he can't help looking.
The fire hit Newton too hard. So many research results are instantly reduced to ashes, can it be painless? So in the next two years, his mood has been very bad, even to the point of insanity, and the cause of the fire is still unknown.
One Sunday morning two years later, Newton still went to church as usual. He went to wash his face again in advance. When washing his face this time, he suddenly remembered the scene of washing his face before the fire.
? I see. ? He thinks that the cause of the fire is that he didn't dry his face. When he was writing on the table, the water on his face dripped on the glass plate. Due to the surface tension, the water turns into a semicircle, which is the same as the convex lens. Sunlight penetrates the water droplets to form a focus, which makes the manuscript paper catch fire. The mystery was finally solved by Newton himself.
Newton's Short Story 3: Newton's Black Box1727 On March 20th, the great scientist Newton passed away. When he died at the age of 84, two dukes, three earl and the Chief Justice carried the coffin for him. Voltaire described it this way:? He was buried like a king deeply loved by his subjects, and no scientist had enjoyed such an honor before him. After him, there are only a handful of people who have received such a thick burial. ? Shortly after Newton's death, Alexander, the great poet of18th century? Bob summed up the world's evaluation of Newton: nature and natural laws are hidden in the dark, and the Lord said, let mankind have Newton! So everything was lit up by the light. This poem is still engraved on Newton's tombstone.
From the18th century, Newton began to be regarded as the greatest man in the modern scientist era, a rationalist and a person who taught us to think in a calm and pure rational way. Newton's name has always been synonymous with science.
However, Newton's true face is not exactly what we imagined. It all started with a mysterious box? Newton's black box? In this big box, there is a lot of evidence to tell future generations what once occupied and completely attracted Newton's passionate and intelligent heart.
Newton left these things when he was working at Cambridge University, but when he left Cambridge, he didn't destroy them, but kept them in that box. The contents in the black box deeply shocked any pair of eyes in 18 or 19 century, even the exploration of modern people, which contained millions of words of his unpublished works. These works are secrets that Newton has been trying to hide all his life.
The secret died with him, and after his death, someone tried to understand the long-buried secret. Bishop. Horsley was ordered to check the box, hoping to publish the voluminous works inside, but after looking at the contents of the box, he suddenly covered it in panic. 100 years later, David? Brewster looked at the box again, but he carefully extracted some contents and told several serious little lies. Black box? The truth in the film was completely covered up.
Paper can't wrap fire after all. Black box? The secret in the room was finally solved. Who is it? Black box? Stunned by what was in the room, the evidence showed that Newton was committed to studying the elixir of life and the method of turning scrap metal into gold. Like playwright George? Bernard? Shaw stuffed it into Newton's mouth in the play "In the Golden Age of Good King Charlie". The playwright expressed Newton's heart through the role: there are so many more important things to do: scrap iron is turned into gold, elixir of life, the magic of light and color, and the overriding meaning of the Bible. I wasted my time elsewhere, what a waste of time, priceless time! ? Another major part of his secret works is the secret truth of the universe that he speculates and seeks? The power of Solomon's temple, the revelation of the Bible, the book of Daniel and hundreds of pages of church history.
Have you seen it? Black box? With the evidence, everyone will think that Newton was not the first person in the rational age, but the last magician. Newton's nature was mysterious and secretive, and he was also deeply nervous. His successor Winston commented on him: His character is one of the most fearful, cautious and suspicious characters I know. ? So he alienated women all his life and never got married.
