The story of making windmills

More than 300 years ago, there was a great scientist named Newton in England. Newton was born in a peasant family. When he was in primary school, he especially liked to do handicrafts. His grandmother gives him pocket money, so he always saves money to buy saws, axes and chisels. He is busy doing handicrafts all day, and his academic performance is not very good.

One day, Newton came home from school and saw a windmill being installed next to the village. He looked at it closely, so absorbed that he almost forgot to go home. After school, he will go to see it for a while every day. After the windmill was installed, Newton helped grandma carry a bag of wheat to grind flour. He saw the windmill driving the stone mill, and shiny flour was scattered around it. Newton said, "I want to be a windmill when grandma goes back."

Every day, as soon as Newton came into the house after school, he was busy. A few days later, a small windmill was made. With the fan, the windmill creaks. Grandma said, "Can your windmill grind noodles?" Newton naively said, "Yes". Grandma smiled.

The next day at school, Newton took his windmill to school and put it on his desk. The students all gathered around to watch. Newton turned the windmill proudly, and the students praised him for doing well. Just then, a tall classmate in the class said loudly, "Newton, why does the windmill turn?" Can you tell the truth? " "Truth?" Newton never thought it reasonable to do manual work. The tall classmate looked at Newton and was speechless. He smiled and said, "What's so rare that you can't just tell the truth?" How ridiculous! "Generated students also gave a burst of laughter. I don't know who pushed it, but the windmill fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Newton blushed with shame. He picked up the broken windmill and felt terrible, but he did not shed a tear. From then on, Newton studied hard and asked why whenever he met anything. Gradually, he formed a good habit of studying hard. After studying hard day after day, he learned a lot, and finally became a world-famous scientist.
