From these stories, you can learn all kinds of excellent qualities of scientists, and then move towards the peak of science. Every story in this book is accompanied by a portrait of a scientist and his resume. In this way, you can also know what this science parent is like, his resume and his contribution to science. No matter which "great scientist" he is, he was once a "small science fan".
For a young man who is about to grow into a scientist, what you need is how to establish your academic reputation in such an environment. In view of people's cognitive habits, it is difficult for a young science student to give you some academic credibility without his own tutor. Therefore, when you choose a mentor, you must look at your future "mentor".
Especially to see if he/she can help you become an "independent" researcher. There is a noun "Mentor" in English, which is equivalent to "mentor" in Chinese. Then the basis for judging whether your tutor is your "tutor" depends not only on whether you really learned something, but also on whether your tutor played a key role in the process of becoming an independent researcher. This is actually very important.
A short story about a scientist (only 100 words)
Once, Einstein wanted to replace an old painting on the wall, so he moved a ladder to climb it. Suddenly, he was lost in thought. After falling off the ladder, regardless of the pain, he immediately thought: Why do people fall straight? It seems that objects always move along the path of least resistance. Einstein limped to the table and wrote down the idea. This is a great inspiration to the theory of relativity he is studying.
Relativity has a great influence on the development of modern physics and modern human thought. Relativity logically unifies classical physics and makes it a perfect scientific system. Fundamentally solved the problem that physics was limited to inertial system in the past, and got a reasonable arrangement in logic.
Relativity strictly examines the basic concepts of physics such as time, space, matter and motion, and gives the time-space view and material view of scientific system, thus making physics a perfect scientific system logically.

Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, the kingdom of Wü rttemberg, Germany, and graduated from Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, a Jewish physicist.
Einstein was born in a Jewish family in Ulm, Germany on 1879. 1900 graduated from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and became a Swiss citizen. 1905 received a doctorate from the University of Zurich. Einstein put forward the photon hypothesis and successfully explained the photoelectric effect. So he won the Nobel Prize in physics at 192 1 and founded the special theory of relativity at 1905. General relativity was founded in 19 15.
Einstein often told people that learning time is a constant, but its efficiency is a variable. It is unwise to simply pursue study time. The most important thing is to improve learning efficiency. Einstein also summed up a formula based on his own personal experience, that is, a = x+y+z, A stands for success, X stands for the correct method, Y stands for hard work, and Z stands for less nonsense.
Einstein laid a theoretical foundation for the development of nuclear energy and initiated a new era of modern science and technology, and was recognized as the greatest physicist after Galileo and Newton. 199965438+On February 26th, Einstein was selected as "the great man of the century" by American Time magazine.
The story of three scientists (100 words)
The story about Einstein
(Story 1) Einstein was a playful child when he was a child. His mother often worries about this, and her repeated warnings go in one ear and out the other. Until the autumn of 16, one morning, my father stopped Einstein who was about to go fishing by the river and told him a story that changed Einstein's life.
The story goes like this:
"Yesterday," Einstein's father said, "Uncle Jack and I, our neighbors, cleaned a big chimney in the southern factory. The chimney can only go up if you step on the steel ladder inside. Your uncle Jack is in the front and I am in the back. We grabbed the handrail and finally climbed up step by step. When I came down, your uncle Jack was still in front and I was still behind him. Later, when I came out of the chimney, I found a strange thing: your uncle Jack's back and face were blackened by soot in the chimney, but I didn't even have any soot on me. "
Einstein's father continued to smile and said, "I saw your uncle Jack and thought I must be dirty like a clown, so I went to the nearby river to wash and wash." And your uncle Jack, seeing me clean when I came out of the chimney, thought he was as clean as me, so he washed his hands and went straight to the street. As a result, everyone in the street laughed and hurt their stomachs. They think your uncle Jack is crazy. "
Einstein couldn't help laughing with his father. When his father finished laughing, he solemnly said to him, "In fact, no one else can be your mirror. Only you are your own mirror. Taking others as a mirror, * * * may make yourself a genius. "
Hearing this, Einstein suddenly looked ashamed.

A short story invented by scientists:
I. Franklin
1one day in June, 752, in the suburb of Philadelphia, USA, it was covered with dark clouds and thunder and lightning. On a wide lawn, two people, an old man and a young man, are flying kites with great interest. Suddenly, a flash of lightning cut through the clouds and drew a "Z" in the sky. Then there was a loud thunder and the rain poured down. The old man shouted, "William, stand in the straw house over there and tighten the kite string."
At this time, lightning flashed one after another, and the thunder was louder and louder. Suddenly William shouted, "Dad, look!" " "The old man looked in the direction pointed by his son, only to see that the original bare and taut hemp rope suddenly burst into anger, and those tiny fibers stood up straight. He shouted happily, "It's coming!" While telling his son to be careful, he slowly approached the copper key attached to the hemp rope with his hand.
Suddenly, as if he had been pushed, he fell to the ground and was numb. Without considering the pain, he got up from the ground and connected the Leyden bottle he had brought with him to the bronze key. There is electricity in this Leyden bottle, which releases electric sparks. It turns out that the sky electricity and the earth electricity are the same!
He and his son took the Leyden bottle home like a treasure.
The people who seized Sky Power were Franklin and his son William. Franklin was not only a great scientist, but also an outstanding politician and diplomat. He was one of the founders of the Declaration of Independence and the first American ambassador abroad.
Second, Archimedes
Archimedes was born into a noble family in Syracuse, and his father was an astronomer. Under the influence of his father, Asmid was fond of learning, thinking and arguing since childhood. When I grew up, I traveled across the ocean to study in Alexandria, Egypt. He learned philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, physics and other knowledge from Conon of Samos, a student of the famous scientist Euclid at that time, and finally learned from others and mastered the rich Greek cultural heritage.
During his study in Alexandria, he often walked along the Nile. In the season of long drought and no rain, he saw farmers laboriously pumping water from the Nile to irrigate the land, so he created a spiral water pump to take water from the river through spiral rotation, which saved farmers a lot of effort. Not only used today, but also the original prototype of all propellers used on water and in the air at present.
Third, Pavlov.
When I was a child, Pavlov and his brother dug a pit for planting apple trees. This hole has been dug. When my father saw it, he said it was misplaced and dug it again. My brother put down his shovel and quit, but Pavlov ignored the blood bubbles on his hand and dug again until he dug a hole and planted an apple tree.
Later, Pavlov became a physiologist, studying dog conditioned reflex in the laboratory all day.
He often uses his salary to buy experimental dogs. It takes four or five hours to dissect a dog. He counted the dog's saliva flowing out of the glass tube very carefully and recorded it in his notebook in detail. A new assistant counted for a while and felt bored.
Pavlov solemnly said to him, "If science needs it, give him ten or twenty years!" At the age of 87, Pavlov contracted hepatitis and later pneumonia, but he still worked as a "hard worker of science". He also feels very sorry that he has not fully fulfilled his obligations to mankind as a scientist.
Fourth, radar
In the British magazine Pink Sleeping 1947 1 Month, a scientist published a funny article, explaining to us how bats guide themselves to fly in the dark, no matter how dark or narrow, they will not hit the wall. What is the reason? How does it understand that there are no obstacles ahead?
1940, two American biologists Griffin and Garangbao used a natural radar to prove that bats can avoid collisions, but sound waves replaced electromagnetic waves, which are completely similar in principle. The bat's mouth emits extremely high-frequency sound waves, which are beyond the range of human hearing.
Two scientists used a special electronic device to record the high-frequency sound waves emitted by bats during flight. This kind of sound wave will inevitably turn back when it hits the wall. Its eardrum can distinguish the distance of obstacles and fly in the right direction. Like radar, bats emit sound waves at short intervals and very regularly.
And each bat has its own natural frequency, so that bats can distinguish their own voices without disturbing them. For this reason, when a bat flies, it often opens its mouth. If you shut its mouth tightly, it will lose its command function. If it blocks its ears, it will hit the wall and cannot fly. This interesting experiment revealed its secret.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) Nobel Prize
Nobel's father is a talented inventor who devoted himself to chemical research, especially explosives. Influenced by his father, Nobel showed a tenacious and brave character from an early age. He often goes to test explosives with his father. Years of studying explosives with his father also made his interest quickly turn to applied chemistry. He began to study nitroglycerin.
This is a difficult journey full of danger and sacrifice. Death has always been with him. An explosion experiment exploded and the laboratory was blown up without a trace. Five assistants were killed, even his brother. This amazing explosion gave Nobel's father a very heavy blow and died soon.
His neighbors, out of fear, also sued Nobel. Since then, Nobel has been forbidden to carry out experiments in this city. But Nobel is indomitable. He moved his laboratory to a boat in a suburban lake to continue his experiment.
After long-term research, he finally found a substance that is very easy to cause explosion-mercury fulminate. He used mercury fulminate to make explosive detonator, which successfully solved the problem of explosive detonation. This is the invention of detonator. This is a major breakthrough on Nobel's scientific road.

One day, Ma Xiao Dongdong came to the road, looked up and found a row of birds standing on the telephone pole. It feels strange. Why are people afraid of electricity, but birds are not afraid at all, and they will not get an electric shock when standing on a telephone pole?
Ma Xiao Dongdong decided to ask a clear question. He came to consult Grandpa Goat, the smartest goat in the forest.
"Knock, knock!" Xiaoma Dongdong knocked on the door politely. Grandpa goat opened the door. When he saw it was a pony Dongdong, he smiled and said, "It's Dongdong! Why are you here? "
Dongdong told Uncle Goat about his problem.
Hearing this, Uncle Goat touched the glistening beard and said:
"This is because the electricity generated by the power plant flows out from one line and then flows back to the power plant through another line. The outgoing line is called the live line, and the return line is called the ground line.
When it touches these two lines at the same time, it will form a path with these two lines, so that the current is unimpeded and people will be charged. Birds only stand on one wire, and other parts of their bodies don't touch another wire, so they won't get an electric shock! "
Dongdong said happily: "So that's it! I see, thank you, Uncle Goat! "

Qian Xuesen's story before returning to China
Author: Anonymous article Source: Excerpted from the number of clicks on the Internet: updated on May 2, 2007
When the first five-star red flag was slowly raised in Tiananmen Square in 1949, Qian Xuesen, then director of the supersonic laboratory of California Institute of Technology and head of the Guggenheim Jet Propulsion Research Center, was deeply happy for the rebirth of the motherland. He intends to return to China and use his professional knowledge to serve the new China. However, it was not easy for China scientists in the United States to return to China at that time, and Qian Xuesen's expertise was directly related to national defense, so he finally returned to the embrace of the motherland after going through hardships. His tortuous struggle process showed Qian Xuesen's love for the motherland at that time, which was very touching.
1in mid-September, 950, Qian Xuesen resigned as the director of the supersonic laboratory of California Institute of Technology and the head of the Guggenheim Jet Propulsion Research Center, and went through the formalities of returning to China. He bought a plane ticket from Canada to Hong Kong and gave his luggage to the handling company for consignment.
However, just two days before he planned to leave Los Angeles, he suddenly received a notice from the US Immigration and Naturalization Service that he was not allowed to return to China! The Immigration Bureau threatened to leave the country without authorization and be fined or even jailed if caught!
A few days later, Qian Xuesen was arrested in the detention center of the US Immigration and Naturalization Service. The "crime" is "participating in a political party that advocates overthrowing the United States by force."
The luggage handed over by Qian Xuesen to the handling company was inspected by the US Customs and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is said that telegraph codes, weapons drawings and the like are all "found" from it. The Immigration and Naturalization Bureau wants to "interrogate" Qian Xuesen, saying that Qian Xuesen is "an American". Later, it was said that among several American classmates that Qian Xuesen knew when he was studying in the United States, several were members of the United States. The Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization threatened Qian Xuesen to "violate American immigration laws" and "expel Qian Xuesen". It didn't take long for him to change his mind. Because Qian Xuesen is going to be "deported", which is exactly what Qian Xuesen wants! In the detention center, Qian Xuesen was imprisoned like a criminal. Qian Xuesen once recalled: "15 days of confinement, I lost 30 pounds." In the detention center, every night, spies will come in every hour to wake you up, so that you can't rest and are in an extremely nervous state. "
The persecution of Qian Xuesen by the Immigration and Naturalization Service aroused public indignation in the American scientific community. Many American friendly people came forward to rescue Qian Xuesen and find a defense lawyer for him. They raised $ 15000 as a deposit to bail Qian Xuesen out of the detention center.
1June, 955, Qian Xuesen wrote to Comrade Chen Shutong, then vice chairman of the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), asking the Party and * * * to help him return to the embrace of the motherland at an early date. Premier Zhou attached great importance to this matter and instructed relevant personnel to deal with it at an appropriate time. After hard work, in June 195565438+ 10/8, Qian Xuesen's family finally returned to the motherland after 20 years' absence. Soon, he was appointed as the director of the Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

3. Li Siguang
Li Siguang, a famous geologist, studied hard at Birmingham University in England for six years in his early years and obtained a master's degree in geology. His teacher advised him to stay for further study and return to China after obtaining his doctorate. Li Siguang declined the teacher's kindness. He replied, "No, I want to contribute what I have learned to my motherland as soon as possible." 1920 resumed work until 1937 when War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out. After that, he still insisted on geological research when he was abroad. By 1950, he put aside the advantages of foreign countries and resolutely made a detour from England to return home when everything was in ruins in New China. As the geological minister of New China, he has made outstanding contributions to the petroleum industry in China.

Ten short stories about science (about 100 words)
First, high heels
/kloc-a venetian businessman in the 0/5th century often went out to do business, but he was worried that his wife would go out to have an affair. One rainy day, he was walking in the street, with a lot of mud on his heels, and he walked very hard. Businessmen are inspired by this, because Venice is a water city and boats are the main means of transportation. The businessman thinks that his wife will not be able to walk on the springboard in high heels, so she can be trapped at home.
Unexpectedly, his wife felt very novel when she put on these shoes. Accompanied by the servant, she got on and off the boat and played around. High-heeled shoes made her more graceful, and fashionable ladies rushed to follow suit, so high-heeled shoes quickly became popular.
Second, raincoats.
1747, French engineer Franois Fraineau made the world's earliest raincoat.
He used latex obtained from rubber wood to dip cloth shoes and jackets in this latex solution, which can play a waterproof role.
McIntosh, who works in a rubber factory in Scotland, can't afford rain gear because he lives in poverty. Every rainy day, he can only go to work in the rain. One day, he accidentally spilled rubber juice on his clothes and couldn't wipe it off, so he had to wear this dirty clothes to go home.
It was raining outside, but when McIntosh came home, he was surprised to find that his clothes were not wet at all. He just smeared rubber juice on his clothes. This is the first rubber raincoat in the world.
Third, the phonograph
Edison was a famous American scientist and inventor. Because he has many inventions 1000, such as electric light, phonograph, film and storage battery, people call him "the king of inventions" and "the magician".
Edison's greatest achievement was the invention of the electric light. However, among his inventions, nothing shocked the society at that time more than the phonograph. /kloc-in the autumn of 0/877, the phonograph invented by Edison caused a sensation throughout new york, and reporters from various newspapers flocked to report this unusual news.
Fourth, the telephone.
That was June 2nd, 1875. Bell and his assistant Watson are experimenting with multiple telegrams in two rooms respectively. An accidental accident inspired Bell. In Watson's room, there is a spring stuck to the magnet of the telegraph. When Watson pulled it away, it shook.
At the same time, Bell was surprised to find that the spring on the telegraph in his room vibrated and made a sound. It is the current that transmits vibration from one room to another.
Bell's mind suddenly broadened. He thought: If a person speaks to a piece of iron, the sound will cause the iron to vibrate; If an electromagnet is placed behind the iron sheet, the vibration of the iron sheet will inevitably produce large and small currents in the electromagnet coil. This fluctuating current travels far away along the wire, so that similar devices in the distance will not vibrate and make the same sound.
Bell and Watson made the telephone according to this new idea. In an experiment, a drop of sulfuric acid splashed on Bell's leg, which made him cry. "Mr. Watson, I need you. Please come to me! " "This sentence is the phone through the wire to Watson's ear, the phone succeeded! 1On March 7th, 876, Bell became the patentee of telephone invention.
Five, lightning rod
The modern lightning rod was invented by American scientist Franklin. Franklin thought lightning was a discharge phenomenon. In order to prove this point, he risked being struck by lightning on a thunderstorm day in July 1752, put a kite with a long metal wire into the thunderstorm cloud and tied a string of silver keys at the end of the metal wire.
When the thunder and lightning happened, Franklin's hand was close to the key, and a string of electric sparks burst out on the key. My hands are still numb. Fortunately, the lightning passed down this time was very weak, and Franklin was not injured.
