Copernicus, a great astronomer, heard that time can be determined by the shadow of the sun. The name of this instrument is sundial. Curious, he asked the teacher about the principle of the sundial, went home and found some waste materials, which were quickly made. He used sundials to study the laws of motion of the sun and the earth. When Copernicus grew up, he put forward the famous "Heliocentrism", which overthrew the wrong statement that the sun goes around the earth. Lomonosov, a great chemist, was born in a fisherman's family and went fishing with his father since childhood. He is interested in all natural phenomena in the ocean. When he goes to sea, lomonosov always asks his father many questions when he comes home. "Why are there bright waterlines on the sea in summer evening?" "Why are there gorgeous northern lights in the winter night sky?" "Why does the sea rise and fall twice a day?" Edison was interested in everything when he was a child. He always wants to try something he doesn't know and find the answer. Once he saw a wild beehive by the fence of the garden, which was very strange. He poked it with a stick to see what had happened. As a result, my face was swollen by wild bees, and I was not reconciled. You need to see the structure of the hive clearly. Edison later became a world-famous inventor. Goode, a great animal behaviorist, once said: In a stuffy chicken coop, memories of our childhood are often intertwined. When I was a child, I went into the henhouse and stayed there for five hours to see how hens laid eggs. Li Siguang, a great geologist in our country, often imagined that there were some stones of unknown origin in his hometown when he was a child, and curiously asked himself why he appeared here. Why did they come here? Later, Li Siguang traveled all over China and did a lot of investigation and study. Finally, he came to the conclusion that these strange stones were pumice of glaciers and the remains of Quaternary glaciers. This corrected the wrong theory of foreign scholars that there are no Quaternary glaciers in China. 6. Newton, a great physicist, was curious when he saw the apple ripe when he was a child. He thought, why does everything on the earth fall to the ground after losing its support, but not in other directions? Later, he finally discovered the law of gravity. The legend of almost every scientist can tell us that their life is full of curiosity about the mysteries of nature, and it is this curiosity that leads them to climb the peak of science step by step. Simple curiosity is not a unique psychological feature of human beings. Goodall, a female animal behaviorist, found in the virgin forest of Africa that chimpanzees were curious about everything in her tent. Try to open every carton. However, there is an essential difference between human curiosity and animal curiosity. Man has the curiosity of a rational brain, which expresses his thirst for knowledge. The more people know about nature, the more they want to know more knowledge and information. This is what Pavlov called "what is this" instinct-the instinct to ask questions. In the history of biological evolution, the creature with the largest amount of information from the outside world is most likely to adapt to the environment and gain the right to survive. Childhood curiosity is spontaneous, childish, spontaneous and childish curiosity will not last long. Einstein once said, "The light of pure curiosity gradually goes out." Ordinary people's curiosity is as fleeting as lightning Shi Huo. Once a scientist is awakened, the flame of thought it ignites will not go out until the problem is completely solved. The curiosity of scientists is the sensitivity and exploration of new things. It is based on a lot of original experience and knowledge. Einstein once said: "This kind of' surprise' seems to happen only because experience conflicts with our completely fixed essential world. Whenever we experience this kind of conflict strongly, it will act on our thinking world in a decisive way. The development of this thinking world, in a sense, is to constantly get rid of' surprise'. That is to say, scientists' curiosity arises when new experience conflicts with the original theoretical concepts, and the process of scientists' learning and exploration is the process of getting rid of this surprise. Therefore, in this sense, the development of science is the process of curiosity generation, getting rid of it, reproduction and getting rid of it again. Being good at asking questions and solving problems is what science should have. Curiosity is the initial motivation for scientists to study and research, and it is also the most basic psychological factor of creation. But pure curiosity has never been the main driving force of scientific development, but it has to develop into an interest in career and a deeper pursuit.

1, Li Bai played truant and went to the river. He was curious when he saw the old woman grinding the iron pestle, so he asked what to do, so he had the inspirational famous sentence "As long as the kung fu is good, the iron rod is ground into a needle".
Edison was interested in everything when he was a child. I always want to try something I don't know and find it. Once, he saw a wild beehive near the fence of the garden. He felt very strange, so he poked it with a stick to find out. As a result, his face was swollen by a wild bee sting, but he still didn't want to see the structure of the hive clearly. Edison later became a world-famous great inventor.
3. Watt looked at the kettle and studied the steam. It has made great contributions to the economic development of Europe.
Edison likes to think about a series of problems with his distinctive big head since he was a child. When he saw the blacksmith burning iron in the blazing fire and hammering into various tools, he shook his head and asked one question after another: What is fire? Why does the fire burn? Why is the fire so hot? Why does iron turn red after burning in a fire? Why is iron soft when it is red? Back home, little Edison started his first experiment in his own wooden shed. He brought hay and lit it. He wants to know what fire is. However, little Edison's first experiment led to a big fire, which destroyed the wooden shed at home.
Newton once wanted to have dinner with his friend * *, but he thought of a problem before eating and went into the room to think for himself. His friend waited for a long time and didn't see him come out, so he finished his meal, and then buckled the remaining bones and leftovers on the plate to play a joke on Newton. Unexpectedly, Newton came out of the room after a while, opened the plate and said to himself, "I have already eaten. Why are you hungry again?" Then he went back to his room to think.
(2) Extended reading of curious celebrity stories:
Curiosity is an animal's inner psychology. When something is completely or partially blank, it instinctively wants to add the attributes of it. Displayed as:
1, the mood of paying special attention to some things.

3. Hobbies or passions for grotesque.
Psychology believes that curiosity is the psychological tendency of individuals to pay attention, operate and ask questions when they encounter novelty or are in new external conditions. Curiosity is one of the internal motivations of individual learning, the motivation of individual seeking knowledge and an important feature of creative talents.

He didn't delve into it, thinking that it was just an ordinary ray, and thus missed the discovery of neutrons (later discovered by chadwick). 2. Justus von Liebig once extracted iodine from seaweed, and a layer of dark brown irritating liquid always precipitated in the mother liquor after extraction. Justus von Liebig didn't notice this strange phenomenon, so he missed the discovery of bromine (later discovered by French scientist Pollard).

Newton, why else didn't he pick up the apple and eat it when it was in front of him, but he wondered why it fell! ! Ha ha.
(5) The stories of celebrities about curiosity are short.
Famous scientists can be said to be curious. Newton was curious about an apple and discovered gravity. Watt was also curious about the steam from the kettle, and finally improved the steam engine. Einstein was withdrawn from childhood, liked to play with a compass and was very curious. Galileo also discovered the simple pendulum out of curiosity by observing the swaying of the chandelier. When Edison was a child, he watched hens hatch eggs and tried to hatch them all day. There is such a plot in a TV series: the teacher draws a circle on the blackboard and asks what the circle looks like. Children in kindergarten have talked about dozens of kinds; Pupils speak more than a dozen; Middle school students speak eight or nine kinds; College students speak two or three kinds; People in society (including bureau-level cadres) dare not say anything because they dare not. Things are exaggerated. But isn't that what happens when we "study"? The more you learn, the more you dare not imagine. The more you imprison yourself in dead knowledge, the more your thinking shrinks, and finally you become a person who dares not think and dare not say, so you are called "mature" by society. At Cambridge University, Wittgenstein was a student of the great philosopher Moore. One day, Russell asked Moore, "Who is your best student?" Moore said without hesitation, "Wittgenstein." "Why?" "Because, among all my students, he is the only one who is listening to my class. He always looks confused and always has a lot of questions." Russell was also a great philosopher, and later Wittgenstein surpassed him in fame. Someone asked, "Why is Russell behind the times?" Wittgenstein said, "Because he has no more questions." Justus von Liebig, a famous German chemist, introduced chlorine gas into seawater to extract iodine, and found that a reddish-brown liquid was precipitated in the remaining mother liquor. Although he was surprised, he didn't take it to heart. He arbitrarily thought it was just a compound of iodine and put a label on the bottle. It was not until a French scientist later confirmed that it was a new element bromine that Justus von Liebig suddenly realized. He therefore called this bottle "the wrong bottle" to warn himself.
Six celebrity stories about curiosity, shorter.
More than 400 years ago, Galileo boiled water in an iron bucket in the laboratory and found a very strange phenomenon: why did the water level in this iron bucket rise a lot after boiling? Why does the water level drop a lot when it is cold? He developed a strong curiosity about this phenomenon. Later, he discovered the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction.
In fact, thermal expansion and cold contraction are natural phenomena, which have always existed. People turned a blind eye to this, but Galileo was inspired by it and invented the thermometer.
More than 300 years ago, Newton was sitting under an apple tree and was hit on the head by an apple that fell from the tree. Newton had a strong curiosity about this: why do apples fall to the ground when they are ripe, instead of falling to the sky or other directions?
I don't know how many people in this world saw the apple fall from the tree and turned a blind eye. Only Newton, who was very curious, was attracted and discovered the law of gravity.
More than 200 years ago, delaisse, as a lumberjack, cut down trees in the forest farm every day, cleaned the branches, and then rolled down the mountain. One day, he suddenly felt very curious: why can a round tree roll so fast? Inspired by this, he invented the first bicycle in human history.
At that time, the bicycle invented by delaisse had no pneumatic tires, only two wooden wheels, and it was very bumpy to ride. At this moment, another curious person appeared. This man is Deng Lupu. He is thinking about how to prevent the bike from bumping.
One day, a cow in Deng Lupu was sick, and its stomach was swollen because of flatulence. It suddenly occurred to him that if the bicycle tires were inflated, the problem of bicycle bumps could be solved.
Later, Deng Lupu invented the tire and became a world-famous tire brand. Dunlop tires are used in many cars all over the world.
About 90 years ago, a Mr. Ka and a Mr. Jie went to the countryside to play. They saw a paddy field, and the seedlings in this paddy field grew shorter than those in the nearby paddy field.
They were very curious and asked the farmer, "Why are your seedlings so short?" Is it because you use less fertilizer? "
The farmer said, "No, it's because our seeds have been used for many generations, and the seeds have degenerated, so we can't grow good rice."
Mr. Ka and Mr. Jie were deeply inspired. Tuberculosis more than 90 years ago was more terrible than cancer today, and few people who got tuberculosis survived. Through this example, Mr. Ka and Mr. Jie think about whether the bacteria of tuberculosis can be degraded from generation to generation, so that the virus of tuberculosis will no longer harm human beings.
So they invented a vaccine, named after them, called BCG. BCG solved the problem of tuberculosis treatment and saved countless lives in the world.
