A short and interesting science story

1, "King of Invention" Edison: Telegraph, telephone, electric light, these things are so common and common in today's advanced technology that no one will be surprised. But do you know how important these things were to people at that time and how ecstatic they were? Humans thus remembered their inventor-Edison.

Edison, known as the "King of Invention", is a famous American scientist and inventor. In his life, there were 1328 inventions registered in the patent office alone. How can a person who has only studied for three months have so many inventions? I think, if you have heard the story of "Edison incubating chickens", you will understand that his success stems from strong curiosity.

3. 1847, Edison was born in a merchant family in Milan, Ohio, USA. Edison showed great curiosity when he was very young. Whenever he sees something he doesn't understand, he grabs the adult's skirts and keeps asking questions, insisting on asking ugly questions.

One day, he pointed to the hen who was hatching eggs and asked his mother, "Why is the hen sitting under her ass?" Mother said, "Oh, that's a chicken!" " "In the afternoon, Edison suddenly disappeared, and the family was anxious to look around and finally found him in the henhouse. It turned out that he was squatting in a chicken coop with a lot of eggs under his ass to hatch chickens! When his parents saw it, they were so distressed that they had to pull him out and wash his face and clothes. Another time, when he saw birds flying freely in the sky, he thought: Since birds can fly, why can't people fly? So, he found a kind of powder for his friends to eat, in order to let them fly into the sky. As a result, the little friend almost died, and Edison was severely beaten by his father.

Finally, Eddie grew up to 8 years old, and his parents sent him to a rural primary school, thinking that he could go to school safely from now on. Who knows, he still loves to get to the bottom of it, and often asks the teacher dumbfounded and embarrassed. Once in an arithmetic class, the teacher wrote "2+2=4" on the blackboard. Edison immediately stood up and asked, "Teacher, why is 2 plus 2 equal to 4?" This question puzzled the teacher. He thinks Edison is a troublemaker and always disagrees with his teacher. So Edison attended classes for three months and was driven home by the teacher.

6. Edison's mother is a great mother. She didn't blame her only son for being driven back. Instead, he decided to educate the child himself. When she found Edison curious and particularly interested in physics and chemistry, she bought him books about physics and chemistry experiments. Edison started the experiment on his own according to books. It can be said that this is Edison's enlightenment education in scientific inventions.

7. When he grew up, Edison learned radio transceiver technology. He got a job as a night shift operator at Stratford Railway Sub-bureau. According to the regulations, the night shift operator must send a signal to the train service director every hour after 9 pm, no matter what happens. In order to have a good rest at night and study and invent during the day, Edison designed a telegraph that can automatically send signals on time. This is the prototype of the telegram.

8. Not long after, he improved the telegraph. After many tests, a new type of telegraph was successfully trial-produced. Edison looked at the machine he invented and smiled with relief.
