发明家的介绍
⑴ 用英语介绍一位发明家
贝尔
Alexander Graham Bell was born in Scotland. His mother, who was deaf, was a musician and a painter of portraits. His father, who taught deaf people how to speak, invented "Visible Speech". This was a code which showed how the tongue, lips, and throat were positioned to make speech sounds. Graham, or "Aleck", as his family called him, was interested in working with the deaf throughout his life.
Thomas Watson became an associate of Bell. He made parts and built models of Bell's inventions. One day while they were working Bell accidently heard the sound of a plucked reed * coming over the telegraph wire. Watson had been tuning the metal reeds in the next room. Bell drew up a plan for the telephone and they continued to experiment. The next day he transmitted the famous words, "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you!" A few months later on Feb. 14, 1876, he applied for a patent on his telephone.
He continued to invent other things. He developed a method of making phonograph * records on a wax disc. He made an iron breathing lung, and a device for locating icebergs at sea. He experimented with sheep. He was interested in kites that could lift a man, and he invented a hydrofoil * which set a world speed record of over 70 miles per hour.
⑵ 写一个介绍发明家的故事
爱迪生小故事
(1)在自家的木棚里开始了他最初的实验
爱迪生从小就喜欢用他那与众不同的大脑袋思考一连串的问题。他看到铁匠将铁在熊熊的烈火中烧红,然后锤打成各式各样的工具时,就晃着大脑袋提出一个又一个问题:火是什么东西?火为什么会燃烧?火为什么这么热?铁在火中被烧之后为什么会发红?铁红了为什么就软了?回到家,小爱迪生在自家的木棚里开始了他最初的实验。他抱来干草,并将其点燃,他想弄明白火究竟是什么。然而,小爱迪生的第一次实验就引来了一场火灾,将家中的木棚烧掉了。
(2)要设法,用极少的时间办更多的事情
“浪费,最大的浪费莫过于浪费时间了。”爱迪生常对助手说。“人生太短暂了,要多想办法,用极少的时间办更多的事情。”
一天,爱迪生在实验室里工作,他递给助手一个没上灯口的梨形的空玻璃灯泡,说:“你量量灯泡的容量。”他又低头工作了。
过了好半天,他问:“容量多少?”他没听见回答,转头看见助手拿着软尺在测量灯泡的周长、斜度,并拿了测得的数字伏在桌上计算。由于灯泡是梨形的,不是规则的现状。所以,计算灯泡的周长、斜度都十分的困难。他说:“时间,时间,怎么费那么多的时间呢?”爱迪生走过来,拿起那个空灯泡,向里面斟满了水,交给助手,说:“里面的水倒在量杯里,马上告诉我它的容量。”
助手立刻读出了数字。
爱迪生说:“这是多么容易的测量方法啊,它又准确,又节省时间,你怎么想不到呢?还去算,那岂不是白白地浪费时间吗?”
助手的脸红了。
爱迪生喃喃地说:“人生太短暂了,太短暂了,要节省时间,多做事情啊!”
(3)连睡觉都在吸收书里的营养
爱迪生为了搞实验,往往连续几天不出实验室,不睡觉。实在累得不行了,就用书当枕头在实验桌上打个盹。有一天,他的朋友开他得玩笑说:“怪不得爱迪生懂得那么多得发明,原来他连睡觉都在吸收书里的营养。”
(4)为什么母鸡能孵小鸡,我就不能呢
有一次,到了吃饭的时候,仍不见爱迪生回来,父母亲很焦急,四下寻找,直到傍晚才在场院边的草棚里发现了他。父亲见他一动不动地趴在放了好些鸡蛋的草堆里,就非常奇怪地问:“你这是干什么?”小爱迪生不慌不忙地回答:“我在孵小鸡呀!”原来,他看到母鸡会孵小鸡,觉得很奇怪,总想自己也试一试。当时,父亲又好气又好笑地将他拉起来,告诉他,人是孵不出小鸡来的。在回家的路上,他还迷惑不解地问,“为什么母鸡能孵小鸡,我就不能呢?”
(5)野蜂窝里有什么奥秘
由于爱迪生对许多事情感兴趣,他经常碰到危险。一次,他到储存麦子的房子里,不小心一头栽到麦囤里,麦子埋住了脑袋,动也不能动了。他差一点死去,幸亏被人及时发现,抓住爱迪生的脚把他拉了出来。还有一次,他掉进水里,结果像落汤鸡一样被人拉了上来。他自己也受惊不小。他4岁那年,想看看篱笆上野蜂窝里有什么奥秘,就用一根树枝去捅,脸被野蜂蜇得红肿,几乎连眼睛都睁不开了。
⑶ 发明家资料
Thomas Edison, 1847-1931 America's Great Inventor
Edison is remembered most for the electric light, phonograph and his work with motion pictures.
ANNOUNCER:
Welcome to the VOA Special English program, People in America. Today, Sarah Long and Bob Doughty tell about the inventor Thomas Alva Edison. He had a major effect on the lives of people around the world. Thomas Edison is remembered most for the electric light, his phonograph and his work with motion pictures.
(MUSIC)
VOICE ONE:
Thomas Edison's major inventions were designed and built in the last years of the eighteen hundreds. However, most of them had their greatest effect in the twentieth century. His inventions made possible the progress of technology.
It is extremely difficult to find anyone living today who has not been affected in some way by Thomas Edison. Most people on Earth have seen some kind of motion picture or heard some kind of sound recording. And almost everyone has at least seen an electric light.
These are only three of the many devices Thomas Edison invented or helped to improve. People living in this century have had easier and more enjoyable lives because of his inventions.
VOICE TWO:
Thomas Alva Edison was born on February eleventh, eighteen forty-seven in the small town of Milan, Ohio. He was the youngest of seven children.
Thomas Edison was self-taught. He went to school for only three months. His teacher thought he could not learn because he had a mental problem. But young Tom Edison could learn. He learned from books and he experimented.
At the age of ten, he built his own chemical laboratory. He experimented with chemicals and electricity. He built a telegraph machine and quickly learned to send and receive telegraph messages. At the time, sending electric signals over wires was the fastest method of sending information long distances. At the age of sixteen, he went to work as a telegraph operator.
He later worked in many different places. He continued to experiment with electricity. When he was twenty-one, he sent the United States government the documents needed to request the legal protection for his first invention. The government gave him his first patent on an electric device he called an Electrographic Vote Recorder. It used electricity to count votes in an election.
VOICE ONE:
In the summer months of eighteen sixty-nine, the Western Union Telegraph Company asked Thomas Edison to improve a device that was used to send financial information. It was called a stock printer. Mister Edison very quickly made great improvements in the device. The company paid him forty thousand dollars for his effort. That was a lot of money for the time.
This large amount of money permitted Mister Edison to start his own company. He announced that the company would improve existing telegraph devices and work on new inventions.
Mister Edison told friends that his new company would invent a minor device every ten days and proce what he called a "big trick" about every six months. He also proposed that his company would make inventions to order. He said that if someone needed a device to do some kind of work, just ask and it would be invented.
VOICE TWO:
Within a few weeks Thomas Edison and his employees were working on more than forty different projects. They were either new inventions or would lead to improvements in other devices. Very quickly he was asking the United States government for patents to protect more than one hundred devices or inventions each year. He was an extremely busy man. But then Thomas Edison was always very busy.
He almost never slept more than four or five hours a night. He usually worked eighteen hours each day because he enjoyed what he was doing. He believed no one really needed much sleep. He once said that anyone could learn to go without sleep.
(MUSIC)
VOICE ONE:
Thomas Edison did not enjoy taking to reporters. He thought it was a waste of time. However, he did talk to a reporter in nineteen seventeen. He was seventy years old at the time and still working on new devices and inventions.
The reporter asked Mister Edison which of his many inventions he enjoyed the most. He answered quickly, the phonograph. He said the phonograph was really the most interesting. He also said it took longer to develop a machine to reproce sound than any other of his inventions.
Thomas Edison told the reporter that he had listened to many thousands of recordings. He especially liked music by Brahms, Verdi and Beethoven. He also liked popular music.
Many of the recordings that Thomas Edison listened to in nineteen seventeen can still be enjoyed today. His invention makes it possible for people around the world to enjoy the same recorded sound.
VOICE TWO:
The reporter also asked Thomas Edison what was the hardest invention to develop. He answered quickly again -- the electric light. He said that it was the most difficult and the most important.
Before the electric light was invented, light was provided in most homes and buildings by oil or natural gas. Both caused many fires each year. Neither one proced much light.
Mister Edison had seen a huge and powerful electric light. He believed that a smaller electric light would be extremely useful.He and his employees began work on the electric light.
VOICE ONE:
An electric light passes electricity through material called a filament or wire. The electricity makes the filament burn and proce light. Thomas Edison and his employees worked for many months to find the right material to act as the filament.
Time after time a new filament would proce light for a few moments and then burn up. At last Mister Edison found that a carbon fiber proced light and lasted a long time without burning up. The electric light worked.
At first, people thought the electric light was extremely interesting but had no value. Homes and businesses did not have electricity. There was no need for it.
Mister Edison started a company that provided electricity for electric lights for a small price each month. The small company grew slowly at first. Then it expanded rapidly. His company was the beginning of the electric power instry.
VOICE TWO:
Thomas Edison also was responsible for the very beginnings of the movie instry. While he did not invent the idea of the motion picture, he greatly improved the process. He also invented the modern motion picture film.
When motion pictures first were shown in the late eighteen hundreds, people came to see movies of almost anything -- a ship, people walking on the street, new automobiles. But in time, these moving pictures were no longer interesting.
In nineteen-oh-three, an employee of Thomas Edison's motion picture company proced a movie with a story. It was called "The Great Train Robbery." It told a simple story of a group of western criminals who steal money from a train. Later they are killed by a group of police in a gun fight. The movie was extremely popular. "The Great Train Robbery" started the huge motion picture instry.
(MUSIC)
VOICE ONE:
Thomas Alva Edison is remembered most for the electric light, his phonograph and his work with motion pictures. However, he also invented several devices that greatly improved the telephone. He improved several kinds of machines called generators that proced electricity. He improved batteries that hold electricity. He worked on many different kinds of electric motors including those for electric trains.
Mister Edison also is remembered for making changes in the invention process. He moved from the Nineteenth Century method of an indivial doing the inventing to the Twentieth Century method using a team of researchers.
VOICE TWO:
In nineteen thirteen, a popular magazine at the time called Thomas Edison the most useful man in America. In nineteen twenty-eight, he received a special medal of honor from the Congress of the United States.
Thomas Edison died on January sixth, nineteen thirty-one. In the months before his death he was still working very hard. He had asked the government for legal protection for his last invention. It was patent number one thousand ninety-three.

⑷ 科学家或发明家的简介
发明家爱迪生简介
美国发明家。生于美国俄亥俄州的米兰镇。幼年生活贫困,勤奋好学。一生发明1300余项,其中包括留声机、电报机、有声电影和电灯等。1883年发现热电子发射现象。1877年,爱迪生和同事们开始试制电灯。在选择了硼、钌、铬等各种金属作为灯丝并经过试验后,又选择了碳丝作灯丝。他把碳丝插在电池的两极间,碳丝虽发亮,但很快氧化烧断了。1879年4月爱迪生用白金丝做灯丝,制成一只25W电灯,但点燃不多时就烧毁了。为了寻找合适的灯丝,他先后试验了1600多种材料。后来,爱迪生总结出制造电灯的关键是避免灯丝氧化。为此他设计了抽气机,使玻壳内达到高真空度,并将碳化棉丝装入玻壳内,成功地制成了第一只碳丝白炽灯。1879年10月21日,这只灯在通电后发出了光亮,并连续燃点了40个小时。
爱迪生,T.A.
Thomas Alva Edison (1847~1931)
美国发明家、企业家。1847年 2月11日生于俄亥俄州迈兰,1931年10月18日卒于新泽西州门洛帕克。爱迪生一生没有受过系统的正规教育,但却取得了1000多项发明专利。爱迪生除有留声机、电灯等举世瞩目的发明外,在电影方面亦颇多建树,堪称为电影的最早发明人。由于受到留声机的启发,他想到了记录和再现活动影像,发明留影机。1888年,爱迪生研制了一台称之为活动电影的摄影机,能在一条50英尺的胶片上拍摄600多幅连续画面,从而可以纪录持续活动约1分钟的景物,这种摄影机被视为近代电影摄影机的始祖。1891年,他和W.K.L.迪克森发明了早期的活动电影视镜。1893年,活动电影视镜在芝加哥万国博览会上展出,并成为商品问世,先后在纽约和欧洲销售。这种电影装置是一种单人窥视箱。后来,法国的L.卢米埃尔兄弟发明了可供多人观看的银幕放映的电影,才形成了现代电影的原型。爱迪生用的感光材料,开始是用火棉胶做片基,1889年改为G.伊斯曼提供的用作照相材料的赛璐珞片基。爱迪生还曾把他的活动电影视镜和留声机同步化,制作成世界上第1部机械录音和还音的有声电影。爱迪生采用的胶片宽度为刿英寸(近似后来的35毫米标准型影片);画面宽1英寸,高咡英寸(近似35毫米标准型影片的画面);画面宽高比为1.33:1(与35毫米标准型影片同);影片两边打孔,每格画面占 4个片孔(与35毫米标准型影片同)。他所用的这些规格一直被沿用至今
⑸ 发明家的事迹
约翰.科利
1872年9月3日出生于美国费城。童年就失去了父母,由祖父母养大。
科利是小提琴方面的天才,从小就学习了很多音乐知识,他还在机械制造方面有很高的天赋,虽然没有受过什么高等教育,却是一位有名的机械师。
科利在他少年时就用研磨过的贝壳制造出了著名的科利发动机的雏形,据说只需要最初的推动力轮子便能不停的运动下去。科利认为物体都有其固有的共振频率,若给物体施加共振时的频率就会引起组成物体的分子们的共振,从中释放不可估算的能量。
1866年当他把某一频率的震动作用于水是发生了爆炸,他用了六年时间进行研究发现水在42800赫兹的震动下会立即消失变成某种形式的能量,他把这种能量叫做以太力。1872年可利用这种以太力制造了一种大炮,并于1884年向美国武装部的人员展示,这些人的评价是“它太难已让人理解了”。
科利还有更神奇的发明,他可以用声音的震动来控制重力!有一个叫“共振发射机”的玩意是科利早期发明的,它的结构是这样的:一个玻璃桶,里面放上水,水里放置一个重物科利把一根金属线链接到圆桶上,圆桶与一个球和一个弦乐器相连。圆球内装了一个金属板和各种金属管,球放在一个金属台上周围有一些金属棒。当科利演奏弦乐时,重物就会随着音调的高低上下浮动。
1872年科利说服了几十位工程师和投资者在纽约创办了科利发动机公司。两年后的1874年11月科利展示了他的第一台精心制造的发动机。1895年科利在4月份的《新科学回顾》上发表了一篇描述自己的发动机的文章,满篇都是人们没见过的词汇,例如“震动回路”、“以太瓦解”、“四重和声学”等。当时的《纽约时报》和《电学》杂志认为科利只是巧妙的利用了空气学或电学效应;有的人说科利是在用魔术骗人;甚至还有人认为科利是个杰出的巫师或超人。
1989年科利走完了他的72个春秋可以说他这一生都在和震动打交道了。有一本书详细的介绍了科利和他的发明,书名是《约翰.科利——自由能量的先驱者》。科利系统地建立了他的震动理论,也许他的理论太超前了而没有得到出版却还因此被认为是“科学骗子”。
在很多人眼里科利是至今为止最伟大的发明家,科利真正了解了震动的本质并懂得利用。现在的科学家可以明白“以太力”很可能是真空零点能,但是现在没有一个人了解科利的技术。所有关于科利的神奇故事到底是真还是假,科利到底是世界上最大的骗子还是最伟大的发明家,只能由时间来告诉我们了。
⑹ 伟大的发明家爱迪生的一生简介
爱迪生被世人誉为“发明大王”。他一生为人类提供了约二千项发明。他发明的电灯、电报、电影、留声机等,对人类的生活产生了很大的影响。当有人称爱迪生是个“天才”时,他却说道:“天才就是百分之一的灵感加上百分之九十九的汗水。”
1847年,爱迪生生于俄亥俄州迈兰的一个荷兰移民家庭,7岁时上了小学。由于爱迪生喜欢寻根究底,对每件事情都要问个为什么。因此他的老师对爱迪非常反感,认为他是故意让老师为难。并在爱迪生母亲的面前当众骂他是傻瓜。母亲不得不让他退学,打算亲自教育爱迪生。在母亲的指导下,爱迪生阅读了大量的书籍。
由于生活所迫,他只得外出打工,后来他到火车上去卖报纸。并经列车长的允许在火车的行李箱建立一个小实验室,业余时间做化学实验研究。有一次,他不慎将一块磷掉到地板上,顷刻间便燃烧起来,差点烧掉整个车厢。列车长盛怒之下把他的设备全部扔出了窗外,并重重地打了他一记耳光,使他的耳朵几乎失聪。
1869年,爱迪生来到纽约,靠自己娴熟的技术在一家通讯所找到了管理电报机的工作。没过多久,他就发明了一种新式电报机。他的这一发明对现代电报业的发展起了很大的促进作用,爱迪生的名字迅速传遍了全国。这时,他才26岁。
1876年,爱迪生在新泽西州的“门罗公园”建造了第一所“发明工厂”,它标志着集体研究的开端。从此,科学技术研究工作从个体劳动转变成相互协作的集体劳动。爱迪生的“发明工厂”就是美国通用电气公司实验中心的前身。在从电气到核电站的广泛研究上,这个研究中心当时在世界上一直是名列前茅。
爱迪生在发明留声机的同时,经历无数次失败后终于对电灯的研究取得了突破,1879年10月21日,爱迪生成功地点亮了自炽炭丝灯,稳定地点亮了两整天。为了使灯丝的使用寿命更长一些,他又重新试验,大约试用了六千多种纤维材料,才找到了新的发光体——日本竹丝,可持续一千多小时。接着,他又创造了一种供电系统,使中心发电站能够给远处的灯具配电,这是一项重大的工艺成就。
1931年10月18日,爱迪生因病逝世,享年84岁。在爱迪生葬礼的夜晚,曼哈顿的全部路灯都熄灭了,这是市民们表达对他哀悼的心情。1979年,美国花费了几百万美元,举行长达一年之久的纪念活动,来纪念爱迪生发明电灯一百周年。
