Sir Isaac Newton
Sir Isaac Newton was a great mathematician and scientist. He was one of the most learned men and one of the greatest thinkers that the world has ever seen. He was born in the year 1642, at a small town in Lincolnshire, in England. He became a Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge in 1687. In 1699, he was made master of the Mint in London, and also was elected as the President of Royal Society in 1703. In the year 1705, he was made a Knight by Queen Anne. He died in 1727, at the age of eighty-five.
Sir Isaac Newton was best known as the discoverer of the law of gravitation. The story is that what started him thinking on this subject was the fall of an apple in his garden. He had seen apples fall from the trees many times before, and million of people had seen the same. But just at the time, he was studying the movements of stars and trying to find out why they travel in the sky in the way they did. The sight of an apple falling to the ground from a tree set his mind working in the right direction. That led him to explain the movements of the moon round the earth and the other planets around the sun.
Beside that, he found that the white light the sun is made out of seven colors and he also made so many great discoveries. Though he was such a great man, he was very simple and humble, and a little before his death, he said “I seem to have been only a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me”. He was humble because, though he knew so much, his great learning showed him how much there was to be known. Tuesday, February 8, 2011
The Anger
People generally blame anger as a fault. But sometimes, it is right to be angry. When is anger right, and when may we be angry? And we ought to be angry when we see the weak unjustly treated by the strong, when a great wrong is done to an innocent man, when the rich oppress the poor, when dumb animals are tortured by brutal men, when little children are beaten and starved by drunken parents, These things should fill us with anger, and drive us to do all we can to protect the weak and help the suffering. Such anger has driven good men to come out as reformers, to right public wrongs and put down bad customs.
This kind of anger is always unselfish. It springs from the sympathy and a sense of justice. Ad men who feel it are angry at wrong done to others, but not at wrongs done to themselves.

The Human Hand
The human hand is the most wonderful tool in the world. Because of that the man is known as the “tool using animal”. Man could never have made all the wonderful things used in day today life if he didn’t understand the importance of the had he got.
If we consider about the skeleton hand, we find that it is made up of a large number of small bones. In the wrist there are eight small bones, I the palm five, and I the fingers and thumb fourteen. In the living had, these bones are joined together by strong but supple muscles. The joint that joins the hand to the arms is called the wrist, and it is a bold socket which enables the hand to turn almost any way. What makes the human hand so useful is the fact that the thumb is so placed that it ca be brought opposite the four fingers. This enables us to grasp anything firmly, or to take up very small things gently with finger and thumb.
With most people, the right hand is cleverer and more useful, and they write and paint and draw with the right hand. But some people are left-handed, and few can use both hands equally well.
