Edison was curious about many things since he was a child, and he liked to try it himself until he understood the truth. When he grew up, he devoted himself to research and invention according to his interest in this field. He established a laboratory in New Jersey, and invented the electric light, telegraph, phonograph, film machine, magnetic mineral analyzer, crusher and so on for more than 2000 kinds of things in his life. Edison's strong research spirit made him make great contributions to the improvement of human lifestyle.
"Waste, the biggest waste is wasting time." Edison often said to his assistant. "Life is short, so we should try to do more with less time."
One day, Edison was working in the laboratory. He handed his assistant an empty glass bulb without a lampholder and said, "Measure the capacity of the bulb." He bowed his head to work again.
After a long time, he asked, "What's the capacity?" He didn't hear the answer, turned to see the assistant measuring the circumference and inclination of the light bulb with a soft ruler, and poured the measured figures on the table for calculation. He said, "Time, time, why does it take so much time?" Edison came over, picked up the empty light bulb, filled it with water, handed it to his assistant, and said, "Pour the water into the measuring cup and tell me its capacity at once."
The assistant read out the numbers at once.
Edison said, "How easy it is to measure. It is accurate and saves time. Why didn't you think of that? " ? Still counting. Isn't that a waste of time? "
The assistant's face turned red.
2. A 400-word composition about Edison's inventions. Edison's story:
Edison's life was only three months in primary school. He learned to rely on his mother and learn to teach himself.
When Edison's mother was young, his understanding and patience taught him that his success can be attributed to the fact that Edison Chen, who was originally regarded as an imbecile, grew into a world-famous "king of invention". Many things in the world from small to large are curious and like to experiment until you understand a truth and do research and invention wholeheartedly according to your own interests when you grow up. A laboratory was established in New Jersey. I invented more than 2,000 kinds of things in my life, such as light bulbs, telegrams, phonographs, movies, magnetic field analysis, mining machinery, crushers and so on. Edison's strong research spirit has made great contributions to improving human life style.
"Waste, the biggest waste is wasting time." Edison's frequent assistant said, "Life is short, so I thought of a way to do more with less time."

Edison works in a laboratory. He handed the assistant an empty glass ball and said, the number of light bulbs. "He bowed to work.
At the age of 18, he asked, "How many abilities?" He didn't hear the answer, but turned to see the assistant measuring the circumference of the light bulb with a soft ruler, and the slope of the digital voltmeter was also measured. He said, "Time, time, why does it take so much time?" Edison came and took an empty light bulb, which was full of water. He said to his assistant, "As soon as you pour the water into the cup, tell me its capacity."
The assistant immediately read out these numbers.
Edison said, "This is a simple and correct measurement method, but in order to save time, what do you think?" Come on, Xiao Bai, isn't this a waste of time? "
The assistant blushed. "
Edison murmured, "Life is too short, so save time and do more things!" " "
Edison was a poor worker before he became famous. Once, his old friend met him in the street and said with concern, "Look at your broken coat, you should change it for a new one."
What do you want it for? Nobody knows me in new york. "Edison answered unexpectedly.
A few years later, Edison became an inventor.
One day, Edison's friend was running in the street of new york. "My God," sighed his friend, "why are you wearing this old coat? , is it necessary to change a new one! "
"The best? Everyone here already knows me. " Edison still answered casually. story
Edison
One snowy night, Edison's mother suddenly fell ill, and her father hurriedly called a doctor. The doctor said, "Your mother has acute appendicitis and needs surgery. I believe it will be wrong when there are only oil lamps without electric lights and the lights are dim. Edison suddenly had a good idea. He put all the oil lamps at home, and then put an oil lamp on the back of a mirror. The doctor finished the operation. The doctor said, "son, you saved your mother with your wisdom and cleverness." Edison took his mother's hand and said, "Mom, I want to be a sun at night." "
3. Edison's story composition Edison is very clever and great. Edison was very clever when he was young, but Edison's family was poor, had no money and didn't dress himself up, so his whole body was in a mess. Later Edison was inspired and made up his mind to get ahead. Why did he see that the candle lit at home at that time would glow? Then, he lit a small light bulb at home. He invented a bigger lamp based on a small light bulb, then an energy-saving lamp, and finally an electric light. Edison was the first person in the world to invent the electric light. From here, I can see that Edison is very clever. From here, I can sum up a sentence. There is nothing in the world that you can't do, only what you can't think of. Later, Edison became famous. Many people regard him as a celebrity. Edison's spirit is worth learning, and we will become celebrities in the future. Our task now is to study hard, learn from Edison and invent some strange things with wide uses according to some inspiration. I will learn from Edison. Remember, everything will succeed as long as you are serious.
4. Write Edison's writing deeds
-Special laboratory
When Edison 12 years old, the newly-built Huron-Detroit railway was opened to traffic. He didn't want his parents to spend more on his experiment, so he decided to sell newspapers on the train and earn some money to supplement his family.
Edison read books while selling newspapers. He goes out at seven o'clock every morning and goes home at half past nine in the evening. The train stopped in Detroit for several hours, so he took the opportunity to read in the biggest library in the city, rain or shine.
One day, a gentleman suddenly asked him, "I often see you in the library." How many books have you read? "
"I have read 15 feet."
Hearing this strange answer, the gentleman smiled and asked seriously, "The book you just read is completely different from the book you are holding now. What is the purpose of your study? "
Edison didn't understand the meaning of this question. He said, "I read them in the order on the shelf. I want to read all the books in this library next to each other! " "
This gentleman is even more surprised. He said, "Oh, dear! How ambitious you are! However, if reading has no purpose, reading everything will not be very effective. I hope that you will choose a goal first, and then work hard towards this goal and gain something. "
This accidental conversation gave Edison a great inspiration and had a very profound guiding significance for his reading, learning and growth.
On the train, Edison had some spare time besides selling newspapers. He didn't want to let time pass in vain, so he borrowed a corner of the baggage car from the old conductor to do the experiment. Although the old conductor has a bad temper, he has a kind heart. He agreed to the boy's sincere request. Edison was very happy. He brought many chemicals and appliances. As a result, this small luggage compartment soon became the first train laboratory in the world.
Suddenly, disaster struck.
On that day, the train was running fast on the uneven track, and the carriages swayed from side to side. There was a bang, and a bottle of white phosphorus was knocked to the ground. White phosphorus is a chemical element, which has two strange tempers: first, it is easy to oxidize, and it will combine with the oxidation in the air as soon as it meets the air, and it will immediately heat up, so that the temperature will continue to rise. Second, the ignition point is low, that is, the temperature that can catch fire is very low, about 50 degrees Celsius, and self-immolation. So when this bottle of white phosphorus was knocked to the ground, it suddenly caught fire and fireworks filled this small laboratory. Edison saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly took off his coat and hit it hard, shouting, "Put out the fire quickly!" " Fire! "
After hearing the news, the old train attendants and workers hurried to put out the fire without knowing the cause of the fire. After some fighting, the fire was finally put out. However, the old conductor flew into a rage. He raised his voice, scolded Edison and slapped him hard. At that time, Edison only felt a "buzz" and his ears could not hear anything. It turned out that his right eardrum was shattered. The future inventor paid the price of an ear for his beloved experiment.
The unfortunate experience did not bring Edison down. He can't do the experiment on the train, so he plans to do it at home after selling the newspaper. At this time, his interest has shifted to electricity.
Edison installed a simple transceiver with his neighbor's children. They set up bamboo poles between two houses, pulled up iron wires as wires, and found some glass bottles as insulators. These two children often practice from night till late at night, and sometimes till early morning.
Coincidentally, shortly after the car caught fire, Edison suddenly got a good opportunity to learn electricity. Here's the thing:
1862 One morning in August, Edison was selling newspapers at a small station. Suddenly looking up, I saw a little boy of three or four years old squatting on the rail and playing with stones, and a truck was galloping towards him. Edison let out a whoop of "Ouch", threw down the newspaper, rushed down the platform in desperation, and grabbed the child. At this moment, the train roared past his ear. That was close! Edison held the little boy and fell to the side of the railway track. His face and hands were cut, but the child was saved.
The little boy's father is Mackenzie, the stationmaster of this station. He is an excellent operator. Mackenzie saw this thrilling scene with his own eyes and was moved incoherently: "Thank you … thank you, thank you for saving … my child!" " "
Edison smiled indifferently. He picked up the newspaper from the ground, patted the dust on his body, boarded the train and left.
The next day, when Edison's train pulled into the station, Mackenzie was already waiting on the platform. He said to Edison sincerely, "I have nothing to reward you." I hear you are very interested in telegrams. If you like, I can teach you how to send and receive telegrams and make you a telegraph operator. "These words are from the heart of little Edison. He happily accepted Mackenzie's kindness and followed him to learn the technology of sending and receiving telegrams.
Edison studied very attentively and made rapid progress. Only three months later, he was proficient in sending and receiving telegrams. Mackenzie recommended him to be a train station operator. This unexpected learning opportunity laid a good foundation for Edison's great inventions in the future.
I usually write my composition with Beethoven ~ Madame Curie Edison. Let's write Li Yugang first. He is an absolutely beautiful celebrity. Keep pace with the times. Peasant background, national first-class actor. He is a talented young man forced out by the harsh life. Although he is called a national treasure artist, he has always been modest, friendly and simple, and has no habit of being a big name at all. Please get to know him with a normal heart and sit patiently and watch his interview. You can find a lot of truth, goodness and beauty in him, and some qualities and spirits worth learning. Tell you a true story about him: a singer in a karaoke bar faced a provocative guest, put a pile of money in front of him, and then opened a bottle of wine for him to drink, so he could take it away! The singer hesitated, but didn't hesitate for long, drank the wine, and then left with the stack of money without saying anything! He is not without scruples about his dignity and feelings, but for artists, the audience is God, and the reward is the guarantee, as long as it does not exceed his bottom line. The singer ate and drank like this for ten years, and finally one day he had a chance to become an important singer. This man is Li Yugang. He is not without pride, but he takes it in stride. Even in the face of criticism, he always said, I smile and precipitate everything.
6. About Edison's composition, there should be examples, with spiritual quality and influence on himself. Edison's perseverance, courage to innovate and efforts to explore the mysteries of science. 10, he and Pope established "Pope-Edison Company", specializing in the production of scientific instruments for electrical engineering.
Later, he built a factory in Ward Street, Newark, New Jersey, specializing in manufacturing all kinds of motors. He worked all night.
He trained many capable assistants, and at the same time, he happened to meet diligent Mary, his first bride in the future. In Newark, he invented wax paper and mimeograph. From 1872 to 1875, Edison invented the two-pole and four-pole telegraph successively, and helped others to make the world's first English typewriter.
1877, Edison improved the telephone invented by Bell and put it into practical use. He also invented the phonograph, one of his favorite projects.
Telephone and telegraph "are a revolution to expand human sensory functions"; The phonograph is one of the three great inventions that have changed people's lives. "From the imagination of the invention, this is his extremely significant invention achievement." At this time, people called him "the magician of Monroe Park".
When Edison invented the phonograph, after numerous failures, he finally made a breakthrough in the study of electric lights. 1879, 10 year1October 22nd, Edison lit the first electric lamp with wide practical value. In order to prolong the life of the filament, he tried more than 6,000 kinds of fiber materials and found a new luminous body-Japanese bamboo filament, which can last for more than 1000 hours and achieve the purpose of durability.
To some extent, this invention is the pinnacle of Edison's life. Then, he created a power supply system, which made the distant lights distribute electricity from the central power station, which was a great technical achievement.
Edison's sun, mercury and Neptune all fall in Aquarius, which is a very positive position, which makes him interested in natural science and brings him superhuman creativity and wisdom. The Sagittarius moon brings him keen judgment, his mind is always exploring and his mental activities never stop.
In addition, Mars in Capricorn has a strong desire for success and is willing to work hard for it-I believe everyone knows Edison's famous saying: "Genius is 2% inspiration and 98% sweat." Edison not only has a clever mind, but also has the spirit of unremitting efforts. Therefore, his great success has become the pride of human history.
19th century is called the century of science, and it is also a century characterized by the technicalization and socialization of science. In this century, science has become an important part of social life.
The surging great innovation has become a great driving force for technical science. Some technology giants in this century continued to be active in the 20th century.
Thomas Alva Edison is one of them. Among the 65,438+000 most influential people in the past 65,438+0,000 years recently selected by American Life Weekly, Edison ranked first.
Edison came from humble origins and lived in poverty. His life's "education" is only three months of primary school. Because his teacher was always tongue-tied by his strange questions, he even told his mother that he was a fool and would have no future. Mother let him drop out of school in a fit of pique, and she personally educated him.
At this time, Edison's talent was fully displayed. Under the guidance of his mother, he read a lot of books and built a small laboratory at home.
In order to raise the necessary expenses of the laboratory, he had to go out as a newsboy and run a newspaper. Finally, a small laboratory was built in the luggage compartment of the train with the accumulated money to continue the chemical experimental research.
Later, the chemicals caught fire and almost burned the carriage. The furious porter threw all Edison's experimental equipment out of the car and slapped him several times. It is said that Edison was deaf for life.
Edison is a legend admired by the American nation-although he did not receive a good school education, he achieved great success through personal struggle and extraordinary wisdom. Self-taught, he stood up from thousands of failures with perseverance, rare enthusiasm and energy, overcame countless difficulties and became an American inventor and entrepreneur.
In his early years, he developed duplex and quadruple telegraph systems and invented the automatic telegraph. 1877~ 1879 invented the phonograph; Experiment and improve electric lights (incandescent lamps) and telephones.
Later, a lighting system was established and a lot of work was done to realize centralized power supply. He proposed and adopted the DC three-wire system.
The generator with the largest capacity at that time was made, and the first large-scale power plant was built with this generator in 1882. At the same time, the railway electrification test was carried out.
1883 discovered "Edison effect", that is, thermionic emission phenomenon. There are also many famous inventions in film technology, mining, architecture and chemical industry. Only from 1869 to 190 1 year, we obtained 1328 invention patents.
In his life, there was a new invention every 15 days on average, so he was called "the king of inventions". Edison devoted himself to science and ignored fame and fortune.
When developing electric light, the reporter said to him, "If you can really make electric light instead of gas light, you will definitely make a lot of money." Edison replied: "If a person works only to save money, it is difficult for him to get anything else-even money!" " "He has always been called the father of modern movies, but at the grand banquet held by people in the film industry for his 77th birthday, he said," I just made some technical contributions to the development of movies, and the rest were contributed by others. "
Edison was broad-minded and good at facing adversity. Pointing to the inconvenience caused by his deafness, he said, "Walking in the crowd on Broadway, I can be as calm as a person living in the depths of the forest."
Deafness has always been my blessing, saving me a lot of interference and mental pain. "19 14 One night, Edison's film lab caught fire and suffered huge losses.
Edison comforted his heartbroken wife and said, "Never mind, although I am 67 years old, I am not old. From tomorrow morning, everything will start all over again. I believe that no one will be too old to start working. "
The next day, Edison not only began to build new workshops, but also began to invent new workshops.
7. What are Edison's stories? Write me two 1. Edison saw birds flying freely in the sky and thought, birds can fly, why can't people fly? Can you add wings to people? It suddenly occurred to him that balloons can fly into the sky without wings. How about inflating people's bodies? So I found a powder that can produce gas and let a little friend drink it to see if he can fly like a balloon.
But after a while, the little friend had a stomachache, cried loudly and almost died. For this matter, dad gave him a good beating, and he couldn't tell what experiment he would do in the future.
But Edison was still unconvinced and said, how can I know if people can fly without doing experiments? 2. When Edison was 9 years old, his mother got a book related to chemical experiments, School of Natural Philosophy, which was used by high school students and introduced many experimental methods. Edison unconsciously fell in love with the magical world of chemistry. Edison persuaded his parents to open their own chemistry laboratory in the basement.
Then Edison wanted to buy experimental materials. When there was no money at home, the son went to his mother to discuss: Mom, I want to buy experimental materials. How can I save enough money? Mom said to see if we had anything to sell. Edison walked around the yard and said, I think the vegetables grown in our backyard can be taken to town for sale. Mother said: Good idea, let's try.
Early the next morning, Edison pulled a cart of vegetables into the city. In the evening, my mother saw exhausted Edison come back with a car full of vegetables. He only sold 10 tomatoes.
It is said that an old woman took pity on him to buy it, and it was only 50 cents. Why can't it be sold? He asked his mother.
Mom said: What food did you bring? There are tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant and corn. Mom said that these dishes are not grown in every family, right? Edison said yes, people grow these vegetables, of course, they won't buy them again.
Mom asked him what to do? Edison, think about it. I'll go to town tomorrow and ask everyone what they want. So Edison went door to door in the town and asked him what kind of vegetables he wanted. As a result, he learned that melons, watermelons, cherries, lettuce, spinach, cabbage and onions are very popular.
But Edison didn't have these dishes at home, so he went to see his mother again. His mother told him not to worry. The melons and cherries of Brown's family next door were harvested, the spinach and lettuce of Jesso's family were the most, the cabbage was out of season, and the onions of Douglas's family were the best. It is said that many of them are going to rot.
Edison suddenly had a brainwave: so, some people in the town want dishes that are superfluous at home, so I can buy them at a low price and take them to town to sell. In this way, 9-year-old Edison started his own home delivery business of vegetables.
Learned a lot of things that can never be learned in textbooks. At the age of 0/4, Edison/Kloc-founded Herald Weekly with the encouragement of his mother, which was very popular.
Extended data:
