Benjamin Franklin

• 光学：他发明了老人用的双焦距眼镜，能够看清近处及远处的事 物，并且因此最先解释了北极光。
发明了口琴、摇椅、路灯、避雷针。 发现了墨西哥海湾的海流。 最先绘制暴风雨推移图。 发现人们呼出气体的有害性。 发现了颗粒肥料。 设计出夏天穿的白色亚麻服装，设计了最早的游泳眼镜和蛙噗。 制定了新闻传播法。 最先组织了消防厅。 创立了近代的邮信制度。 创立了议员的近代选举法。
读书
• 1 读书是易事，思索是难事，但两者缺一，便全无用处。 • 2 诚实和勤勉应该成为你永久的伴侣。 • 3 读书是我唯一的娱乐，我不把时间浪费与酒店、赌博或者任何 一种低劣的游戏。 • 学而不能致用的人是一头背着书的牛马。蠢驴是否知道它背上背 的是一堆书而不是一捆柴？
勤奋与光阴
• 1 懒鬼起来吧！别再浪费时间，将来在坟墓内有足够的时 间让你睡的。 • 2 懒惰像生锈一样，比操劳更能消耗身体；常使用的钥匙 ，总是闪闪亮的。 • 切勿坐耗时光，须知每刻都有无穷的利息；日计不足，岁 月有余。 • 3 不劳苦，无所得 • 4 时间就是生命，时间就是金钱。 • 5 今日能做的事，勿延至明日。 • 6勤劳的人，饥饿过其门而不入
行为习惯
• • • • • 1 恶习知道自己委实很丑陋，所以往往戴了假面具。 2 虚伪和欺诈师一切罪恶之母。 3 真话说一半常是弥天大谎。 4 饮食节制常常使人头脑清醒，思想敏捷。 5 早眠早起，使人健康，富有，明智。
THAT'S ALL
THANK YOU!!

富兰克林对邮政工作格外偏爱，是出于非常现实的考虑——这当然不是指他 自己可以免费寄信这种蝇头小利，而是说他发现了邮政和他家族的产业—— 报纸印刷出版之间的联系。曾经，殖民地时期的邮政局并不热衷于担当报纸 的发行渠道，甚至会因为不喜欢某些报纸的内容而拒绝邮寄。富兰克林出任 邮政局长后，很快制定了一项政策：任何出版商都可以通过邮局发行自己的 报纸，邮局不仅不会干涉，而且还在邮费上面给出了非常优惠的折扣。
• 美国独立战争： • 美国独立战争（American War of Independence） （1775年4月19日～1784年1月14日），美国独立战争， 又称北美独立战争或美国革命。为世界历史上首次殖民地 居民打败宗主国并获得独立的战争，美国在脱离英国独立 后，其经济及军事迅速发展，很快便跃升为世界主要强国 之一。是世界史上第一次大规模的殖民地争取民族独立的 战争，它的胜利，给大英帝国的殖民体系打开了一个缺口， 为殖民地民族解放战争树立了范例。 • 18世纪中叶，随着北美殖民地资本主义经济的发展和美利 坚民族意识的增强，英国与北美殖民地之间的矛盾日益激 化。尤其是七年战争后，英国为弥补战争损失，加重对殖 民地人民的盘剥与压迫，从而使殖民地抗英斗争从经济、 政治斗争发展到武装斗争。 • 原因 • 英国的殖民统治阻碍了北美经济的发展。
