How does a sientist study a thing
查德·菲利普斯·费曼(英文:Richard Phillips Feynman,1918年5月11日—1988年2月15日),美籍犹太裔物理学家,加州理工学院物理学教授,1965年诺贝尔物理学奖得主 [1] 。
理查德·费曼,高中毕业之后进入麻省理工学院学习,最初主修数学和电力工程,后转修物理学。1939年以优异成绩毕业于麻省理工学院,1942年6月获得普林斯顿大学理论物理学博士学位。同年与高中相识的恋人艾琳结婚。1942年,24岁的费曼加入美国原子弹研究项目小组,参与秘密研制原子弹项目“曼哈顿计划”。1945年艾琳去世。“曼哈顿计划”结束,费曼在康奈尔大学任教。1950年到加州理工学院担任托尔曼物理学教授,直到去世。
提出了费曼图、费曼规则和重正化的计算方法,这是研究量子电动力学和粒子物理学不可缺少的工具。他被认为是爱因斯坦之后最睿智的理论物理学家,也是第一位提出纳米概念的人。

They must have a vivid(生动的) imagination(想象力) and a strong intuition(直觉) in order for new _______ to be made. It echoes something the _________ Carl Sagan once said. He believes that every child “starts out as a scientist” and every child is _____ with the “sense of wonder(好奇) and awe”(敬畏).
