Moreover, the skull is angular, and this abnormality of the skull later became a permanent feature of Einstein. Einstein's mother
Once frightened by the strange skull of the first fetus, Einstein's grandmother saw her grandson and whispered, "It's too heavy! Too heavy
Yes! "She doesn't mean the weight of her grandson, but her grandson's big and strange head makes her uneasy. How to support a weak body?
Can you catch this huge head? Of course, they haven't realized how much power this big and strange mind will breed.
Realize. Of course, Einstein in childhood could not explain his personality connotation to the world. He lives alone and often dies.
He wants to avoid his friends and classmates. Even with his relatives, he is just a silent listener. Anyone who destroys his loneliness
His always calm mood will suddenly burst into intense emotions. Einstein's sister later recalled: "Whenever this happens."
At this moment, he will become pale and the tip of his nose will be white, and he can't control himself. "A few times, Einstein was 2 years younger than himself.
My sister threw something and lost her temper. When Einstein was five years old, his parents hired a tutor for him. first-class cabin
At that time, Einstein probably found that he would lose his free personal world, lost his temper again and threw a chair at the teacher to show his resistance.
During the discussion, Einstein's parents had to end this first education that had not yet begun. Little Einstein, who doesn't like people, prefers it.
Those games that require patience and tenacity, such as building a house with thin pieces of paper, will never stop until they are successful.
For Einstein in childhood, independent personality is just an "empty basket", which needs to enrich the spirit and culture.
Connotation. What is the first thing to put in this "empty basket"? It is music. When Einstein was 3 years old, one day, his mother Pauline
Sitting next to the piano, stroking the keys gently, the beautiful melody flowed from her fingers like a gurgling stream. Suddenly, she
Feeling someone behind her, she looked back and saw little Einstein tilting his head and listening to the wonderful music wholeheartedly. young
Mom was happy, and she said, "Look at you, serious, like a big professor! Hey, honey, why don't you talk? " own
Stan didn't answer. He is only three years old and can't tell what telepathic music is. His sparkling eyes.
The big brown eyes are clearly shining with happiness. The piano rang again. That is Beethoven's sonata. Little love
Stan walked unsteadily and silently jumped into a new world where there was only beauty, harmony and sublimity.
Little Einstein, who didn't like to talk, was fascinated by music and began to practice playing the violin at the age of 6. A few years later, Einstein's only
Recreation is music. Accompanied by his mother, he will soon be able to play Mozart and Beethoven's sonatas.
According to Einstein's psychological temperament, if he was born in the Renaissance, history might have made him a man.
An outstanding artist, but in Germany at the end of 19, an upsurge of exploring the unknown world with scientific inventions is emerging.
Various scientific inventions are rapidly changing people's sensory world with unprecedented sound, light, electricity, culture and various technical freshness.
Toys bring endless interest to the new generation, attract their interest and arouse their thirst for knowledge.
The light of science shines on the earth, and it also illuminates the growth path of little Einstein. Einstein was born the day before he went to school.
Sick, the originally quiet child is more like a docile kitten, quietly squatting at home, motionless. Father brought one.
A little compass to amuse my son. Einstein held the compass in his little hand, and I saw the pointer in the middle of the compass gently shaking and pointing.
North. He turned the plate around, but the pointer didn't listen to him and still pointed north. Einstein put the compass on his chest again.
Before, I twisted my body, then I twisted it fiercely, but the needle came back, still pointing north. No matter how he turns his body, then
A thin red pointer stubbornly points to the north. Little Einstein forgot his illness, leaving only a surprised face.
There is also confusion: what makes it always point north? There is nothing around this needle. What is pushing it a little bit?
How about going to the north?
Einstein, 67, was still deeply moved by his childhood "compass experience".
He said in the readme:
"When I was a child of four or five years old, I experienced the surprise when my father showed me the compass.
This compass acts in such a definite way, which is not in line with those things that can find a place in the unconscious conceptual world.
I still remember the essence of things (the role related to direct' contact'), at least believe I remember this experience.
Leave a deep and lasting impression on me. I think there must be something deep behind the incident. Everyone has watched it since childhood.
For things, it will not cause this reaction; Does he care about falling objects, wind and rain, the moon or the moon?
Will fall down and will not be surprised by the difference between living things and non-living things. "
Obviously, people experience something and a force in the "empty" space, forcing objects to move.
Move in a specific direction. Although the accident was small, it happened long before Einstein became a scientist.
However, this strange experience is extremely important for his later scientific thinking and research. Later, the characteristics and space of "field"
The problem is that it attracts physicists so strongly. In the general theory of relativity, Einstein finally solved these problems with genius.
The confusion of childhood germination. At that time, however, they just appeared in front of his eyes as they were.
The small compass in which the magnetic needle runs according to certain rules has aroused the curiosity of the future masters of science.
-Curiosity to explore things. And this sacred curiosity is the seedling of science.
When Einstein was a child, he saw his father holding a watch in his hand. There is a small round thing next to the watch with a pointer in it. Einstein was curious and asked his father, "What is this?" Dad said, "This is called the golden compass." "Dad, why does its red pointer always point in the same direction?" This is due to the action of magnetic force. "What is magnetism?" This. . . . At this moment, my mother said, "OK, OK, let's go quickly, or we'll be late for work!" " What is magnetism? Why didn't dad tell me? When he slept at night, Einstein couldn't sleep and was still thinking about the golden compass. At this moment, dad pushed the door and came in. You little guy, you can't sleep if you don't understand the problem? Einstein asked, "Dad, why don't you tell me what magnetism is?" "Because dad doesn't know." "Adults also have questions they don't know." "Of course, let me tell you. If you like this golden compass, dad will give it to you. I hope you can find the answer yourself, ok? " "Great." Growing up, Einstein loved to study problems and physics, which laid the foundation for the theory of relativity in the future.
The greatest physicist of the 20th century. He has made contributions in many fields of physics, such as studying capillary phenomenon, expounding Brownian motion, establishing special relativity and extending it to general relativity, putting forward the quantum concept of light, fully explaining photoelectric effect, radiation process and specific heat of solids with quantum theory, and developing quantum statistics. And won the Nobel Prize in Physics at 192 1.
Albert. When Einstein was born, his head was big and out of proportion to his body. Especially the back of the head is not only big, but also angular. If ordinary parents worry about whether their children are deformed, what about Albert's father Herman? Einstein said, "That may be because there is too much wisdom in his head!" " "In short, it is full of his expectations for children.
In a blink of an eye, Einstein was 2 years old, but he couldn't start babbling like most children. He was withdrawn and silent, which made people suspicious. People think of that abnormal head shape again, and dare not think any more: "Will this child be dumb or demented?"
Little Einstein is almost three years old and can't speak yet. His mother Pauline said to her husband, "Dear, didn't you say that our son's big head is full of wisdom?" But he is too old to talk, so what's on his mind! "
However, the father still has confidence in the big-headed son. He said, "Although he said he lived late. When he can talk, he will never stop talking! "
At this time, although Einstein could not speak, his ears were extremely sensitive to music.
Once, my mother played the piano in her garden. While she was playing hard, she suddenly noticed a noise behind her. She turned around and found little Einstein leaning his big head and listening to her attentively. Besides, she was obviously fascinated by it. She patted Einstein on the head with a smile: "My lovely baby, see you happy. Do you understand? "
Next, whenever his mother sits in front of the piano and plays the works of some famous composers such as Beethoven, he will sit quietly next to her and listen quietly. In his early years, he learned that music can not only express his inner feelings, but also paint the blue sea and soft moonlight like a brush. This is really great.
After careful observation, my mother thought that "Big Head Son" must have a musical talent, so she invited one of the best violinists in the city to be Einstein's family music teacher and teach him to play the violin. Einstein made little progress, but he worked very hard. Gradually, he can play some fragments of Mozart's works intermittently.
Little Einstein entered the world of music without speaking. No one knows what he saw in this world, but one thing is certain, that is, he found what he wanted.
However, things didn't develop as my father hoped.
Little Einstein didn't speak until he was almost four years old, and he didn't "talk forever" as his father expected. On the contrary, he is silent all day.
Little Einstein finally spoke, which gradually relieved Mrs. Pauline's hanging heart. But this taciturn child consciously avoids his peers, never plays with other children, and often hides in a quiet place to meditate.
Mother spends as much time as possible communicating with little Einstein. The purpose of this is to pull him out of the closed world and promote the development of his language. As long as her son can speak his mind, she can help him.
However, when Einstein grew up a little, his personality was also very strange. He never plays with children his own age.
When Einstein was five years old, his parents hired a tutor for him. In the first class, Einstein probably found that he would lose his free personal world, lost his temper again and threw a chair at the teacher to protest. To this end, Einstein's parents had to immediately end the first education that had not yet begun.
One day, Einstein and his wife came back from a trip. When they opened the gate, they were surprised: there was a model building in the yard! There is almost no difference between the style of the model and the real building, which is simply the condensation of the real building!
A closer look shows that this miniature building is all made of small pieces of waste wood.
Moreover, those small pieces of wood bite each other and strive to be uniform, as if they were made by a middle school student who knows geometry and mechanics.
They don't believe this is the masterpiece of little Einstein.
Father asked little Einstein, "Son, who was here just now?" .
Little Einstein said, "Nobody came. I don't want anyone to bother me! "
Mom pointed to the building model and asked, "So who built this small building?"
Little Einstein said without looking up, "Of course I made it!"
Mother picked up little Einstein and kissed him all her life. This incident made her more convinced that Einstein Jr. was not as stupid as he appeared, but an exceptionally clever child.
Fortunately, Einstein's "uniqueness" was not discriminated as heresy by his parents, which made it possible for Einstein to grow into a great physicist. This is worth learning from many parents in China.
In Einstein's childhood, there is another thing worth mentioning.
One night, as soon as Mr. Herman came home from work, he shouted to Einstein's room, "Albert, come and see what dad bought you!" " "
Einstein, who was concentrating on practicing the piano, heard the word "gift" and immediately ran out of the room in high spirits.
I saw my father take out a paper box from his bag and open it slowly and carefully.
Einstein took it curiously and saw a round thing like a big pocket watch inside. It's just that there are four letters N, S, E and W written around this "big pocket watch", and there are even scales. The bigger difference between it and a pocket watch is that it has only one pointer and keeps swinging from side to side.
"What is this? Is it a watch? However, there seems to be something on it. " Einstein asked his father in surprise.
"Let me tell you, it's not a watch, it's used for timing. With this thing, you can know the direction. It's used to determine the direction." Father patiently became a commentator.
When Einstein found the compass so magical, his eyes began to shine. Now, the wonderful function of this compass has made Einstein fondle admiringly.
He kept shaking with a compass. No matter how he shakes it, the needle always points in one direction-north.
"Why does the pointer always point to the north?" Einstein looked at the magic compass as if talking to himself.
"This is because the earth we live in has magnetism, which leads the magnetic needle to the north." After listening to Einstein, my father patiently explained.
"Where is this magnetic force?"
"It can be said that the whole earth is everywhere."
Later, for several days in a row, Einstein often held the small compass in his hand and couldn't speak. He kept trying to turn it over or turn it slowly, but no matter what he did, the little pointer always pointed north. He knows that this is the invisible earth's magnetic field at work. He wants to feel the earth's magnetic field with that little pointer, which still points to the north, but he doesn't feel anything himself.
One day, Einstein finally couldn't help asking Uncle Jacob, because Uncle Jacob was not only a college student, but also an engineer.
"Uncle Jacob, can you tell me more about the magnetic field?" He raised his little face and his eyes were full of curiosity.
"Albert, you are so young, why do you ask this question?" Uncle Jacob thought it was a little strange.
Einstein carefully took the compass out of his arms and asked, "I can't see the magnetic field, and I can't touch it." So how does it make the pointer of the compass point to the north? "
Uncle Jacob felt a little embarrassed about Einstein's question, because he didn't know much about the earth's magnetic field, so he had to say, "I don't know how to answer this question at the moment, or I don't know how to say it before you can understand." You are still young. You'll understand when you go to middle school and college. To tell the truth, many adults are also studying. "
"Then-the magnetic field is invisible and scratching. How do we humans know and determine its existence? " Einstein had no choice but to take a step back and ask.
"It exists. Isn't the pointer in the compass a good proof? In fact, many things in the world are invisible to us, but they do exist. For example, the gravitational field, which we call the gravitational field on earth, also exists like the magnetic field. We throw something into the air and it falls back to the ground, because of the gravity field. "
Einstein still didn't quite understand, but he subconsciously felt that his uncle was right, so he nodded seriously.
Uncle Jacob said to Einstein, "There are certain laws behind all natural phenomena in the world. The world is ruled by these invisible but certain laws. Although we can't see it, we can find it and understand it. "
"They are like gods, aren't they?"
Uncle Jacob smiled and said, "A little. But they are two different things. "
Einstein is looking forward to growing up as soon as possible, so that he can figure out the reasons behind some things.
Einstein was often lost in thought. Uncle Jacob is very happy. He believes that this ordinary and sacred curiosity is the necessary driving force for Einstein's growth!
Einstein was always absent-minded when he was at school, and he always wanted to finish class quickly so that he could return to his vast world quickly.
Einstein's performance, of course, will not be liked by teachers, so in the eyes of most teachers, Einstein is not a good student because he is neither disciplined nor absorbed all day, and no one can figure out what he is thinking.
Mr. Herman ran to school for his son to go to school, and the director of the school's discipline department was responsible for receiving Herman. Looking at the frosty face of the director, Herman asked cautiously, "According to my son's personality, what kind of career should I pursue in the future?"
I didn't expect the dean to be rude: "Don't ask, no matter what your son does, he will accomplish nothing." After that, he gave Einstein's father a contemptuous look, lowered his head and began to do his own thing. Father stood there at a loss and felt very uncomfortable. He doesn't know what to say or do.
After a while, the director looked up again and introduced all Einstein's "bad" performances at school to Herman, saying that all the teachers thought Einstein was withdrawn and boring, and accused him of being "undisciplined, absent-minded and fond of dreaming" and so on.
"Prejudice, all this is caused by prejudice. My son Albert. Einstein is a good boy! " Herman said bitterly in his mind.
Later Einstein was ordered to drop out of school because he was addicted to self-study. The father still insisted, "My son, Albert? Einstein is a good boy! "
Think about it. Einstein couldn't speak until he was 4 years old. He has been eccentric and even a little slow since he was a child. His grades in primary school were not good, so he was ordered to drop out of middle school. In the eyes of ordinary people, is this a stupid child? However, Einstein's parents discovered his superhuman musical talent and valuable spirit of exploration with appreciation, which opened the door to a broad life for him. Einstein succeeded, but everything depends on the success of parents' education first.
Albert Einstein is one of the top ten outstanding physicists in the world, a pioneer, master and founder of modern physics, and a famous thinker and philosopher. Einstein graduated from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1900 and became a Swiss citizen. 1905 received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Zurich. He worked in Berne Patent Office and served as a university professor at Zurich University of Technology and Prague, Germany. 19 13 returned to Germany, served as the director of the Institute of Physics of Emperor William in Berlin, a professor at Humboldt University in Berlin, and was elected as an academician of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. 1933 persecuted by Nazi regime, moved to the United States, became a professor at Princeton Institute for Advanced Studies, engaged in theoretical physics research, 1940 became an American citizen.
There is a well-known proverb: "Everything is relative." But Einstein's theory is not a repetition of this philosophical cliche, but an accurate mathematical expression. In this method, scientific measurement is relative. Obviously, the subjective feeling of time and space depends on the observer himself.
When Einstein was a child, one day the German imperial army passed through the streets of Munich, and curious people flocked to the window to cheer. The children longed for the soldiers' shining helmets and neat steps, but Einstein hid in fear. He despised and feared these "monsters in war" and asked his mother to take him to the country, where he would never be such a monster. In middle school, Einstein gave up German citizenship, but did not apply for Italian citizenship. He wants to be an independent citizen of the world ... After World War II, Einstein tried to build his dream of world peace on the basis of reality and delivered a series of "peace" speeches in "enemy countries". His thoughts and actions led to his death: a Russian aristocratic female assassin with imperialist ambitions secretly pointed the gun at him; Albert Einstein's name also appeared on the blacklist of German right-wing assassins; Hitler offered a reward of twenty thousand marks for his head. In order to keep himself in harmony with the world, Einstein had to move from Italy to the Netherlands and from the Netherlands to the United States. He became an American citizen. He believes that in the United States, people from all walks of life can survive in a barely passable friendship. (Excerpted from Einstein's Reflection, No.5-6, Academic Monthly of Applied Writing 1985)
/kloc-the late 0/9th century is a period of great changes in physics. Einstein re-examined the basic concepts of physics from the experimental facts and made a fundamental breakthrough in theory. Some of his achievements greatly promoted the development of astronomy.
His general theory of relativity has a great influence on astrophysics, especially theoretical astrophysics.
Einstein's special theory of relativity successfully revealed the relationship between energy and mass, adhered to the determinism position of quantum theory explanation of "God rolls the dice" (vector sum of particle vibration and translation), and solved the long-standing problem of star energy source. In recent years, more and more high-energy physical phenomena have been discovered, and special relativity has become the basic theoretical tool to explain this phenomenon. His general theory of relativity also solved a mystery in astronomy for many years-the precession of Mercury's perihelion (which Newton's gravity theory can't explain), and deduced the phenomenon of light bending that was later verified, which became the theoretical basis of many astronomical concepts later.
On June 4th, 2009, Einstein, winner of 192 1 physics prize, was selected by the Nobel Foundation as one of the three most respected winners of the Nobel Prize 100 years. (The other two are Martin Luther King, winner of the 1964 Peace Prize, and Mother Teresa, winner of the 1979 Peace Prize. )
