One day, his father said, “Look at this! Another broken toy!”

“Now, don’t be hard on him,” said his mother. “He only wants to see how things work.” But even the mother lost patience with him when he almost burned down the family’s barn（倉(cāng)庫(kù)）!

Tom was more careful, but it’s hard when you are curious.

Then the family moved to Michigan. By now, Tom was old enough to go to school. Unfortunately, he didn’t like to sit still and listen to the teacher or memorize his lessons.

Since Tom spent most of his time daydreaming, his teachers thought there was something wrong with him. But he just liked experimenting more than he liked school. Tom’s mother decided to teach him at home. Soon, he loved to read, especially about science.

At 12, Tom heard about a job on a train selling candy, newspapers and sandwiches. His father agreed, and so it was settled. Two days later, Tom was at the station to begin his job.

Before long, Tom set up a laboratory in the train’s baggage car. When his work was finished, he would experiment.

At 16, he got his first real job as a night telegraph operator and station agent. But Tom could never hold a job very long. He was either too tired from studying or too busy experimenting to do his job. So Tom decided to spend more time inventing things. He was stubborn（固執(zhí)的）, independent and hardworking.

Some of Tom’s inventions began to be noticed. Then Tom happened to be in New York at the gold exchange （黃金交易所）when an important machine broke down. Tom stepped in, and in an hour or two, he had the machine run perfectly.

In the following months, Tom invented a way to improve the machine. The company paid him $40,000 for his invention. “I’m going into business for myself,” said Tom.

【1】Who was harder on Tom at first, his father or his mother?

【2】Why did Tom’s mother lose patience with him in the end?

【3】What did Tom spend most of his time doing when he was at school?

【4】What was Tom’s job on a train when he was 12?
