Newton: It was during the holidays, and Newton used to come to his mother's house and sit in the garden for a while. Once, as had happened many times before, an apple fell from a tree.
The accidental landing of an apple was a turning point in the history of human thought, which opened the mind of the man sitting in the garden and caused him to ponder: what is it that makes all objects almost always attracted towards the center of the earth? Newton pondered.
Finally, he discovered the gravitational pull that was epoch-making for humanity.
Summary: Newton was reading a book under a tree when an apple fell to the ground, leading him to discover gravity.
Edison: One snowy night, Edison's mother suddenly fell ill, and his father rushed to the doctor. The doctor said:
Your mom has acute appendicitis and needs surgery." At that time, there were only oil lamps and no electric lamps, and the light of oil lamps was very dim, and if you were not careful, you would make a mistake. Edison suddenly thought of a good solution, he brought out all the oil lamps in the house, and put a mirror behind the oil lamp, so that the doctor could complete the operation smoothly.
The doctor said, "Son, you are a mother who saved you with your wisdom and cleverness. Edison took his mother's hand and said
Mom, I'm going to make the sun for one night. ”
Summary: Edison put the candle behind the mirror and made his life go through the surgery.
Famous geologist Li Siguang:
Li Siguang studied hard at the University of Birmingham for six years in the United Kingdom and obtained a master's degree in geology. His teacher, Professor Balton, advised him to stay and pursue his doctorate before returning to China. Li Siguang declined the teacher's kindness, he said
No, I want to contribute what I have learned to my homeland as soon as possible. He returned to China in 1920 and worked until the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937. Later, he went abroad for a time and still insisted on the research of geology abroad.
By 1950, he gave up the favorable conditions abroad, and resolutely made a detour from Britain to return to China when New China was in ruins, and made outstanding contributions to China's petroleum industry as the Minister of Geology of New China.
Summary: Although Li Siguang has achieved outstanding results in the UK, he insisted on returning to China and made outstanding contributions to China's petroleum industry.
Hope it helps.

In fact, in the background of Edison's story, there was no appendicitis yet.

On Christmas Eve 1642, Newton was born in a peasant family in Walthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. Newton was a premature baby, weighing only 3 pounds at birth. Both the midwife and his parents were worried about whether he would survive.
No one could have imagined that this seemingly insignificant little thing would become a giant of science that would rise to the age of 85.
Newton's father died three months before he was born. When he was two years old, his mother remarried. Newton was raised by his maternal grandmother.
When he was 11 years old, his mother's step-husband died, and Newton returned to his mother. Beginning at about the age of 5, Newton was sent to public school and entered secondary school at the age of 12. As a teenager, Newton was not a child prodigy, he had average qualifications and grades, but he loved to read, and he liked to read books that introduced various simple mechanical model making methods, and was inspired to make his own strange gadgets, such as windmills, wooden clocks, folding lanterns, and so on.
A windmill was being built near the apothecary's house, and Newton Jr. built a small windmill himself after understanding the mechanics of the windmill. It is not the wind that drives his windmill, but the animals. He tied the mouse to a treadmill with wheels, and placed a grain of corn in front of the wheel, just in a place where the mouse could not reach.
The rat wanted to eat the corn, so it kept running, so the wheel kept turning. He also made a small water clock. Every morning, the little water will automatically drip water onto his face, urging him to get out of bed.
Later, forced to live, his mother suspended Newton from school to work in the family farm. But Newton was not interested in farming, and buried himself in books whenever he had the opportunity. Every time his mother asked him to go to the market with her servant to familiarize himself with the trade, he begged the servant to go out into the street alone while he hid behind a bush and read.
Once, when Newton's uncle became suspicious, he followed Newton to the town, and found his nephew lying on the grass with his legs outstretched, concentrating on a mathematical problem. Newton's studious spirit moved his uncle, who persuaded his mother to let Newton return to school. Newton went back to school, hungry for the nourishment of his books.

Scientists love the Motherland.
Pasteur Pasteur was an outstanding French scientist in the 19th century, the founder of microbiology, because of the invention of infectious disease vaccination, for human beings and human breeding of livestock, poultry has made great contributions to the prevention and control of diseases. Due to excellence in science. As a result, he enjoyed a high reputation throughout Europe, and the University of Bonn in Germany solemnly conferred an honorary diploma on this famous scholar.
However, after the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, Germany forcibly occupied the territory of France, and out of deep affection for his homeland and great hatred for the invader Germany, Pasteur resolutely returned the honorary degree certificate to the University of Bonn, saying: "Although science has no borders, scientists have their own homeland." These resounding words fully express the patriotic feelings of a scientist, and thus become an immortal patriotic quote.

Newton. 1.Newton was alone in the orchard at home, and because he was thinking about a problem while walking, he accidentally bumped into an apple tree in the garden, and an apple happened to hit Newton's head.
Newton suddenly woke up to the problem and picked up the apple, at which point he was caught up in the question of why the apple fell to the ground instead of floating into the sky. Eventually, Newton proposed a universal law for the production of the simplest phenomena:
Universal gravitation. 2.Newton was very attentive to his scientific research, and often forgot about the small things in life. Once, the old lady who was cooking for Newton had something to go out, so she put her eggs on the table and said:
Mr! I'm going out to buy something, please boil your own eggs and eat it, the water is already boiling! Newton, who was concentrating on the calculation, let out an "um" without raising his head.
When the old nanny came back, he asked Newton if he had boiled the eggs, and Newton said without raising his head: "Cooked!" The old lady lifted the lid and looked at it, stunned:
There was a pocket watch boiling in the pot, but the eggs were still in place. It turned out that Newton was busy calculating and threw his pocket watch into the pot indiscriminately.
Franklin. When Franklin was 7 years old, the adults gave him a lot of money for a holiday. Franklin planned to use this "huge money" to go to the store and buy some toys.
On the way, he saw a boy blowing a whistle very vigorously, and he was completely fascinated by the whistle at that time, so he exchanged all his money for the boy's whistle. Back at home, Franklin proudly whistled around the house, disturbing the whole family. His family learned about his deal and told him that he had paid 4 times more than its original price for the whistle and made him understand that with these extra payments, more and better things could be bought.
