1901年,一只看似普通的灯泡,在美国加利福尼亚州利弗莫尔市第六消防站正式投入使用。没人能够料到,这只其貌不扬的灯泡,竟能在109年后,继续散播着温热的光明。在此之前整整一个世纪中,它很少被关掉过,其中最长的一次间歇,也不过是一个星期。
这只“百年灯泡”不仅创下了惊人的吉尼斯世界纪录,还在互联网上拥有着成千上万名崇拜者,他们自发组织了一个“百年灯泡粉丝俱乐部”。这只灯泡的“粉丝”来自世界各地,甚至有不少居住在北极圈。前不久,守候这只灯泡的管理员斯蒂夫·布恩说,一个来自北极圈的“粉丝”给他发来了信息,内容是一句简短的话:“这只百年灯泡是整个世界的灯塔。”
终于有越来越多的人发出这样的疑问:究竟是谁发明了这只经久不灭的奇特之灯?为何他不能像同是以发明灯泡成名的'爱迪生那样誉满全球?
19世纪,发明家阿多尔菲·柴莱特设计了这只灯泡。他把有关这只灯泡的构造和相关材料交给了美国谢尔比电气公司,委托其生产制造。当时所采用的是炭制灯丝,亮度相当于四瓦。这个一生黯淡的发明家曾和托马斯·爱迪生及其他几位在当时颇有名望的发明家进行过灯泡发明比赛,目的是看谁能制造出世界上最好的电灯泡。
这场比赛吸引了众多观望者。他们一致认为,爱迪生的灯泡是世界上最好的。结果却令人大吃一惊。因为事实证明,随着电压不断升高,除了阿多尔菲·柴莱特的灯泡越来越亮之外,其他几位发明家包括爱迪生的灯泡都瞬间炸开了。可即便如此,人们还是坚信,爱迪生的灯泡才是世界上最好的。他们相信这次比赛不过是一个小小的意外,阿多尔菲·柴莱特因运气超好赢得了比赛,而爱迪生胸襟广阔,故意输给了他。
人们很快忘却了关于这场比赛的结果以及获胜者的姓名。100年后,一只在消防站里彻夜不息的灯泡轰动了世界。它以持续不断的光亮,照耀了弗莫尔市整整100年。此刻,爱迪生的灯泡已经熄灭了半个多世纪,当日与之比赛的那些发明家的灯泡也早已被抛入了不知名的角落。唯独这只由阿多尔菲·柴莱特设计的灯泡依旧恒亮如初。有不少人出高价欲收购这只灯泡,均遭到了消防站的拒绝。人们不得不承认,世界上最好的灯泡,其发明者根本不是爱迪生,而是这位没有生平传记、默默无闻的发明家——阿多尔菲·柴莱特。
一只光亮百年的灯泡,让我们追寻到了一个隐藏在历史深处的发明家。他以孜孜不倦、淡泊名利的态度,创造了一个世纪的奇迹。现实的我们,有谁能够像这只灯泡那样不畏世俗蜚语、默默地在暗处发亮,默默地坚持100年而毫无怨言呢?

Dear dad,
It’s so late,almost 11:00 at night.Have you entered into the sweet dream yet?I haven’t seen you for a long time.I miss you so much.Can you hear my sincere words?Maybe you’ll never know I miss you so much!
Do you still remember the happy days when we were all together?During those days we were full of sunshine.You and mum often took brother and me to the park.We always saw the ice-cream tear.Sometimes,you stayed at home and cooked some delicious food for us.We often waited for you and played with you.You could lift me very high.We always had a good time.You also concerned about my lesson.But you have never chastised me and lectured me.You were full of thoughts for me.What’s more,you were my best father in my heart.You were the envy of my friends.I was happy for a long time.But now,all things have changed.You can’t take care of me.You aren’t at home all day.Sometimes,I go to bed late,but I still can’t see you.Are you busy?No!you often play cards with your work friends in the factory.So you can’t go back home early.I’m angry to hear that!Do you know?If you don’t come back,we’ll worry about you.I often see you and mum should divorce in my dream.I’m very scared,because I want to have a happy family.I can’t control my tears and often suffer from insomnia the whole night.
Dad,I want to see you and talk with you.But I have no courage to tell you.But I hope you can care our family.Dad!Could you hear my voice?
Hope you keep healthy and best wishes.
