One day Newton invites an old friend to dine with him.No sooner do the two men take their seats than Newton hits upon an idea about his experiment interrupted by the arrival of his guest.
Wait a moment,Ill soon be back.
Newton goes straight into his laboratory and resumes his experiment.He is so absorbed in it that he has soon forgot the dinner and his guest.
The guest is kept waiting for a long time.He thinks Newton must have returned to his experiment.Feeling hungry,the guest gets his patience worn out.He eats up the food and then leaves.
Several hours later,Newtons experiment is finished with success.Relieved of the strain,he goes into the dinning room for meal.When he sees the fishbone in a plate,he says to himself: I have already had my meal.I have forgot it. He immediately returns to the laboratory and starts a new experiment.
It is just like Newton to bend his mind to his work so as to forget sleep and meal.
有一天，牛顿邀请一位老朋友和他一起吃饭，这两人都坐在座位上，而不是在牛顿的客人到来时打断他的实验。
稍等片刻，我马上回来。
牛顿径直走进了他的实验室，并恢复了他的实验，他很快就把晚餐和他的客人都忘了。
客人很不耐烦地等了很久，他认为牛顿一定是回到了自己的实验中，感觉饿了，客人把他的耐心给了，他吃的食物，然后离开。
几个小时后，牛顿的实验是成功完成。解除紧张，他走到食堂吃饭。当他看到鱼刺板，他说自己：我都已经吃过饭了。我已经忘记了它。他立刻回到实验室开始了一个新的实验。
这就像牛顿一样，要把自己的思想给他的工作，以忘记睡眠和吃饭。
