Edison's childhood short stories

1, Edison loved to think when he was a child, and his curiosity was particularly strong. One morning, the whole family suddenly found Edison missing and couldn't find him anywhere. It was not until the evening that he lay next to the henhouse, with a lot of eggs under his stomach. It turned out that he was whimsical and wanted to hatch chickens with his own body, but it backfired: the eggshell was broken and the yolk was bright. Little Edison also understood that chickens can hatch eggs, but for some reason, people can't hatch eggs.

One day, Edison seemed to find something strange. He shouted and ran to his mother, upturned his round face and gasped and asked, "mom, mom!" That chicken ... put the egg on its ass ... sat under its ass, why? " The mother put down her work, bent down and held the child in her arms. She smiled and said, "Son, the hen is afraid of catching cold, so keep it warm."

Mother said, "These eggs are different from other eggs. They are for chickens. " "What do you mean by incubating chickens?" "Hatching a chicken is to let the chicken come out of the eggshell. Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Those chicks like fluffy balls are hatched by their mothers. " Edison cocked his head, thought about it, and then asked, "As long as the eggs are kept warm under his ass, is it possible for the chicken to get out?" "Well, son."

This afternoon, Edison suddenly disappeared and did not show up for several hours. The family was so anxious that they couldn't find him anywhere. His father ran to the door of his neighbor's warehouse and looked inside. Ah! The little guy made a nest in someone else's warehouse. There are some eggs in the nest, and he squats on them solemnly to hatch chickens.

Extended data:

Edison was the first person in human history to make use of a large number of production principles and electrical engineering research laboratories to patent inventions, which had a far-reaching impact on the world. His invention of the phonograph, movie camera and electric light had a great influence on the world. He had more than 2,000 inventions and 1000 patents in his life. Edison was named the ninth among 100 people who influenced the United States by the authoritative American periodical Atlantic Monthly.

Edison's cultural level is extremely low, but his contribution to mankind is so great. Edison not only has a curious heart and an instinct to try by himself, but also has unlimited energy and courage beyond ordinary people to work hard.

Edison made so many inventions in his 84-year life, and he has been persistently devoted to inventions. In addition to his inventions and contributions in phonograph, electric light, telephone, telegraph and film, he also has many creations and opinions in mining, architecture and chemical industry, and has made great contributions to the progress of human civilization.

Contrary to popular understanding, Edison was not the inventor of electric light at first, but Edison improved it. As early as 180 1 year, a British chemist named humphry davy used platinum wire to electrify and glow in the laboratory. 18 10, he invented the "electric candle" which was illuminated by the arc between two charged carbon rods, which was the earliest prototype of the electric lamp.

Joseph swan, another British electrical engineer, after nearly 30 years' research, made a vacuum bulb with electricity and light from carbon wire in 1878+02.

The report about the swan's light bulb gave Edison a great inspiration. 1879 10, Edison finally succeeded in making an incandescent light bulb with carbon fiber as the filament, which is called "carbonized cotton filament incandescent lamp". Later, a large number of incandescent lamps were put into production, and companies were established to establish corresponding power stations, transmission networks and other infrastructure, which soon made electric lamps widely used in the United States.

During this period, he constantly improved his technology, and finally decided to use tungsten wire as the filament, which is called "tungsten lamp" and has been in use ever since, so Edison became a recognized inventor of electric lamp.
