     George Stephenson (喬治· 史蒂芬孫) was born in 1781 in a poor family. He had to start work
when he was only eight. When George was fourteen, he became his father's helper. He spent a lot of
time learning about engines(發動機). And on holidays he often took one to pieces and studies each
piece carefully. Soon he became a very good worker though he could not read or write. He began to
