Sir Isaac Newton was sitting in his garden when he saw an apple fall from a tree. He began to think and tried to find out why the apple fell. He got the idea of gravity. Then he discovered how the Sun, the Moon and the stars are kept in their places.
A boy named James Watt sat quietly by the fire, watching the lid of the kettle move up and down. He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid. From that time, he went on thinking and thinking. And when he became a man, he improved the steam engine so much that it could do the work of many horses easily.
James Ferguson was a poor boy. Once, seeing the inside of a Watch, he wondered, "Why should I not make a watch " But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring(主发条) He soon found he could make it with whalebone(鲸须). He then made a wooden clock which kept good time. His motto(座右铭) was "I will think of it." And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.
