How Can We Develop Our Scientific Spirit?
Scientific spirit is of great importance in our life. It helps us think better and solve problems logically.
To have scientific spirit, we need several qualities. First, be curious and always ask “why”. Second, be patient and never give up. Third, be brave to try new things and learn from mistakes.
In my opinion, curiosity is the most important quality. Without it, we would not have the desire to explore. It is the start of all scientific discoveries.
We can develop our scientific spirit by reading books, doing experiments and asking questions every day. Let’s keep learning and exploring!

What do you think of the wisdom in science? Today we’ll take a close look at the Dujiangyan Irrigation Project.
Built by water engineer Li Bing in 256 BC, this great project has three key parts. First, Fish Mouth divides the water of the Minjiang River and discharges sand. Then Flying Sand Fence further discharges flood and sand. Finally, Bottle Neck Channel leads water to the farmland of Chengdu Plain.
Dujiangyan prevents floods and irrigates the plain, helping local people grow enough grain for over 2,000 years. From this project, I learn that scientific spirit is about creating works that benefit people for generations.

The power of curiosity
Albert Einstein once said, “I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.” The greatest inventions in history would be impossible without curiosity.
Curiosity can bring new discoveries. Benjamin Franklin is a great example. He was drawn to electricity and had a deep curiosity about its nature. He did lots of research to try to understand it.For example, he flew a kite during a storm. His curiosity led him to invent the lightning rod. This invention protects buildings from lightning.
Curiosity is the key. It opens one door after another for us to discover a new world.

My favorite invention is the radio. It was invented by Guglielmo Marconi in 1901. Before the radio was created, news spread slowly and people barely learned about faraway events in time.
After its invention, people all over the world could get the latest news and enjoy wonderful music easily at home. Besides, it inspired many later useful inventions such as mobile phones.

The Power of a Good Idea
Liu Yang, a college student, is an outstanding young innovator. Great changes have taken place in garbage recycling because of his smart classification bin. He used to see people mix all kinds of rubbish randomly. After realizing recycling was hard, he came up with an intelligent bin with image recognition.
He has devoted more than two years to improving this device. Now it has been put into use in many communities and greatly improves recycling efficiency. His story tells me that small creative ideas can bring real changes if we stick to them.

My favourite invention is the mobile phone.
It was invented in the 20th century. A mobile phone can be used for calling, texting, and surfing the internet. It has changed our lives greatly. For example, we can now talk to friends far away at any time. We can also get information easily.
I think it is one of the most useful inventions in history.

To my surprise, sticky notes were invented by accident.
A scientist tried to make strong glue but he made weak glue instead. Later, another man used it to mark pages in a song book. The weak glue held the paper but could be removed easily. This accident resulted in a very useful invention.
Now sticky notes are used everywhere in offices and schools. It shows that great ideas can come from mistakes.
