When Einstein started to work in America, someone asked him what he needed. He said he needed a desk, some paper and a pencil. He also asked for a big waste-paper(废纸) basket to hold all of his mistakes. This shows that he knew even the cleverest man in the world can only learn by making mistakes. Einstein was very modest(谦虚). Many children wrote letters to ask him for help with their homework. One day he wrote a letter to a young girl to tell her not to worry about her maths homework because he also thought maths was quite difficult. Einstein thought time was very important. He never wore socks and he thought putting on socks was a waste of time. If someone could quickly found something in a book, he also thought it was a waste of time remembering them. That's why he never remembered his own phone number. He knew what was worth(值得) remembering. (责任编辑：admin) |
