We cannot see our thoughts, or hear, or taste, or feel them, yet what power they have!A boy named Watt sat quietly by the fireside, watching the lid(盖子) of a pot move up and down. The boiling water makes steam. He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the heavy lid. He went on thinking and thinking. When he grew up, he improved the steam engine(发动机) so much that it could easily do the work of many horses. When you see a steamboat or a steam train, remember that it would never have been built if it had not been the hard thinking of someone. James was a poor farmers boy from Scotland. Once, seeing the inside of a watch, he thought, “I am sure that I could make a watch too.” He kept thinking and then made a wooden clock which kept good time. In a few years while still a small boy, he made enough money to support his father. When he grew up, he went to London to live. Some of the wisest men in England, and the king himself, used to come and listen to him speak. His motto was “I will think of it” which means that he would be able to think of how to do something. In this way, he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world. Boys and girls, when you have a difficult lesson to learn, dont feel discouraged. Think, and by thinking you will learn how to think in a way that solves your problems, and the problem of others.35 .
