                   Sir Issac Newton was a great scientist who discovered many things.Once Sir Issac Newton was very busy in his work. So he got up very early from the bed. He was thinking about the work so deep that he would not leave the the problem to go to breakfast. But his servant thought Newton needed food so he came with a pan of water and an egg. But Newton wanted to be alone ,and Newton said to servant , “you can leave the egg with Newton and Newton will boil the egg.” So the servant left the egg beside the watch of Newton and said, “Sir Issac Newton must boil the egg for four-minute and the egg will be ready.” Then servant left the room. But servant was afraid that Newton might forget boil the egg, so the servant returned about an hour later and found Newton standing by the stove. He had put the watch in the saucepan and was boiling the watch. And he was holding the egg in his hand,quite unaware of the mistake that Newton was making.
