Isaac Newton was a very great English scientist. He made great success in many areas such as physics and Maths. Newton was born on 4th January, 1643 in a small town named Woolsthorpe. Newton’s father died three months before Newton was born. When Newton was older, his mother wanted him to learn to take care of the family farm. But Newton was more interested in reading and thinking. Newton was very lucky. His uncle persuaded (说服) his mother to let him finish middle school.
In 1661, Newton went to study in Cambridge University. Newton read lots of books by famous scientists and took many notes. Newton was very crazy about science. When he was working on an interesting problem, he often forgot about eating or sleeping. He worked so hard. In less than a year, he began to have his own ideas. In 1665, Newton finished his study in Cambridge University. But he was still at the university, giving classes in most years until 1696. In the university, Newton was at the height of his creative power (才能). Let’s take what Edison said about Newton as an end，“All his life he worked on science.”
