Thomas Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the world might still be in the dark at night. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented 1,200 other important things. Nearly every two weeks, he created something new.

Thomas Edison was born in 1847. He attended school for only three months. His mother taught him at home, but he was mostly self-educated. He started trying but his new ideas at a very young age and he loved that very much.

When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train. He did experiments on the train in his spare time. Unluckily, his first working experience didn’t end well. He was fired (解雇) when he accidentally (偶然地) set fire to the floor of the train. Then Edison worked as a telegraph operator (电报员) for five years, but he continued to spend much of his time creating things until the vote recorder (投票计数器), his first invention, came in 1868.

Thomas Edison was nearly deaf in one ear and it was also hard for him to hear in the other, but he never minded. Because of this, he could have more time for work. He always worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes his wife had to remind him to eat and sleep.

Thomas Edison died at the age of 84. He left many inventions that greatly improved the quality of life all over the world.

The visiting teacher watched the lesson and was surprised because the teacher methods were different from those in her country. A children’s art lesson in her country produced a lot of pictures, and each one is quite different from the others. Why? What makes this difference in educational methods? In a classroom in any country, a teacher teaches more than art or history or language.

In a country such as the United States or Canada, students are asked to work and find answers by themselves. The students are helped to learn to have their own ideas. In countries such as China and Japan, students often work together and help each other in the classroom, but the teachers teach, and the students listen. The students are asked to memorize a lot. They have to learn the same textbook, do the same homework and give the same answers.
