So we hate to inform him that woolly mammoths were not, in fact, used to build pyramids. Heck, woolly mammoths weren't even found in the desert. They wouldn't need to be woolly if that were the case. And there weren't any pyramids in Egypt until 2,500 B.C or so. GladiatorEmperor Commodus was not the sniveling sister-obsessed creep portrayed in the movie. A violent alcoholic, sure, but not so whiny. He ruled ably for over a decade rather than ineptly for a couple months. He also didn't kill his father, Marcus Aurelius, who actually died of chickenpox. And instead of being killed in the gladiatorial arena, he was murdered in his bathtub. 300Though this paean to ancient moral codes and modern physical training is based on the real Battle of Thermopylae, the film takes many stylistic liberties. The most obvious one being Persian king Xerxes was not an 8-foot-tall Cirque du Soleil reject. The Spartan council was made up of men over the age of 60, with no one as young as Theron (played by 37-year-old Dominic West). And the warriors of Sparta went into battle wearing bronze armor, not just leather Speedos.The Last SamuraiThe Japanese in the late 19th century did hire foreign advisers to modernize their army, but they were mostly French, not American. Ken Watanabe's character was based on the real Saigo Takamori who committed ritual suicide, or "seppuku," in defeat rather than in a volley of Gatling gun fire. Also, it's doubtful that a 40-something alcoholic Civil War vet, even one with great hair, would master the chopsticks much less the samurai sword. ApocalyptoThis one movie has given entire Anthropology departments migraines. Sure the Maya did have the odd human sacrifice but not to Kulkulkan, the Sun God, and only high-ranking captives taken in battle were killed. The conquistadors arriving at the end of the film made for unlikely saviors: an estimated 90% of indigenous American population was killed by smallpox from their infected livestock. Memoirs of a GeishaThe geisha coming-of-age, called "mizuage," was really more of a makeover, where she changed her hairstyle and clothes. It didn't involve her getting... intimate with a client. In the climactic scene where Sayuri wows Gion patrons with her dancing prowess, her routine - which involves some platform shoes, fake snow, and a strobe light - seems more like a Studio 54 drag show than anything in pre-war Kyoto. BraveheartLet's forget the fact that kilts weren't worn in Scotland until about 300 years after William Wallace's day and just do some simple math. According to the movie, Wallace's blue-eyed charm at the Battle of Falkirk was so overpowering, he seduced King Edward II's wife, Isabella of France, and the result of their affair was Edward III. But according to the history books, Isabella was three years old at the time of Falkirk, and Edward III was born seven years after Wallace died. Elizabeth: The Golden AgeIn 1585, when the movie takes place, Queen Elizabeth was 52 years old - Cate Blanchett was 36 when she shot the film - and was not being courted by suitors like Ivan the Terrible (who was dead by then). And though the movie has her rallying the troops at Tilbury astride a white steed in full armor with a sword, in fact she rode side saddle, carrying a baton. She was more of a regal majorette than Joan of Arc. The PatriotRevolutionary War figure Francis "The Swamp Fox" Marion was the basis for Mel Gibson's character, but he wasn't the forward-thinking family man they show in the flick. He was a slave owner who didn't get married (to his cousin) until after the war was over. Historians also say that he actively persecuted and murdered native Cherokees. Plus, the thrilling Battle of Guilford Court House where he vanquishes his British nemesis? In reality, the Americans lost that one. 2001: A Space OdysseyAccording to this film, in year 2001 we would have had manned voyages to Jupiter, a battle of wits with a sentient computer, and a quantum leap in human evolution. Instead we got the Mir Space Station falling from the sky, Windows XP, and Freddy Got Fingered. Apparently the lesson here is that sometimes it's better when the movies get the facts all wrong. 1.《公元前10000年》导演 Roland Emmerich 通常是一位坚持现实主义的人，（相关内容：美国独立日通过Macintosh向外星传播电脑病毒事件）所以我们不想告诉他，实际上那个时候长着羊毛的庞然大物不是用来建金字塔的，当然也不会在沙漠里发现饲草架和长着羊毛的庞然大物,即使有，那它们也不需要长羊毛；再说了，埃及直到公元前2500年才有金字塔。2.《角斗士》罗马帝王康莫得斯（Commodus）也并非如电影描述的那样，是一个哭哭啼啼有着恋姐情结的讨厌鬼。他确实是一个暴力狂，但却不浮躁。他统治罗马有10多年，而不是无能的在皇帝的宝座上只呆了几个月。他也没有弑杀父王，他的父皇马库斯.奥勒琉斯（Marcus Aurelius）实际上死于水痘。另外，康莫得斯是在浴缸里被谋杀的，而不是死在角斗场上。3.《斯巴达300勇士》虽然这是一部基于塞莫皮莱之战史实来赞扬古代道德标准与现代体育的大片，但还是有许多地方的文风发挥过于自由。最明显的是波斯国王薛西斯一世并不是一位身高8尺的怪物群队的头领；另外，斯巴达参议会议员年龄都在60岁以上，没有像瑟伦（Theron）这样年轻的议员，（由37岁的多米尼克.维斯特饰演）。再者，斯巴达战士上战场都穿铜盔甲，而不是穿着皮制Speedos三角裤上阵。4.《最后的武士》19世纪末日本的确雇佣过外国人来训练他们的现代化军队，但大部分被雇者是法国人，而不是 美国人。Ken Watannabe（演员名）所扮演的角色是基于Saigo Takamori按传统仪式自杀（或说“切腹自杀”）的真实事件，其自杀原因是由于战败，而非因为被困于战火之中。还有让人质疑的是，一个曾参加过内战的约莫40岁的老兵兼酒鬼，居然拿筷子远远不如舞剑利索。5.《启示录》这是一部让所有人类学研究者头痛的电影。当然玛雅人会把人当祭品，但不会供奉给太阳神---Kulkulkan，另外，战争中只有抓到的高级俘虏才会被杀。电影最后西班牙人的到来也并不意味着他们是救世主：估计有90%的本地美洲人都死于天花，其病源就是西班牙人养着的被感染了天花的牲畜。6.《艺伎回忆录》艺伎到了一定的年龄，就叫“Mizuage”，这时不只是小小的修饰，而是从发型到服饰全面换新，但并不表明她可以和来客有亲密的举动。有一个精彩画面，小百合（Sayuri）用她的舞姿赢得了全场人的赞誉。她演出的行头包括一双厚底鞋，仿造雪景，和一盏闸灯；然而这些行头似乎更像一个舞台drag 秀（男扮女装的表演），而不是战前京都应有的。7.《勇敢的心》先撇开Kilts是在威廉.华莱士时代300年后才出生在苏格兰不说，我们只做个简单的算术题。在电影里，在整个苏格兰教会内战中，华莱士迷人的蓝眼睛太有慑服力了，这使爱德华二世的妻子伊莎贝拉深深为他着迷并生有私情，之后怀上了爱德华三世。但据史书记载，苏格兰教会内战时期，伊莎贝拉只有3岁，而爱德华三世是在华莱士死后七年才出生的。8.《伊丽莎白：黄金时代》电影将时间定位在1585年，那时伊丽莎白女王52岁----电影饰演者Cate Blanchett 36岁----此时伊丽莎白没有被如伊凡（Ivan）等众多爱慕者追求，且那时伊凡（Ivan）已经死了。虽然电影中，伊丽莎白女王统领着全副武装，身佩宝剑，驾着白马车的军队，但事实上她只是骑着马鞍，手持权棒而已，她是一位皇权的代表，而非贞德般的女英雄。9.《爱国者》美国革命战争中的Francis "The Swamp Fox" Marion形象是Mel Gibson人物的原型,但Francis并非如电影里表现的那样，是一位思想前卫的家长。他是一个奴隶主，直到战争结束才结婚（同表（堂）妹结婚），史学家也评价他乐衷于迫害甚至杀害本地切罗基族人（Cherokees）。另外，发生在Guilford Court House的令人毛骨悚然的搏斗，最后是马里恩击败了他的英国强敌，但实际上是美国人输了。10.《2001：太空漫游》电影里，2001年，我们就已经有人去木星旅行，还会爆发一场智人和智能电脑之战，这将是人类发展的一次大飞跃。然而这些并没发生，事实是2001年，和平号空间站从太空坠落，Windows XP和Freddy才刚问世。显然，我们从中学到的是：当电影把事实完全搞错时，有时未必不是好事。

—— 本杰明·富兰克林 Benjamin Franklinwas born in Milk Street, Boston, on January 6, 1706. His father, Josiah Franklin, was a tallow chandler who married twice, and of his seventeen children Benjamin was the youngest son. His schooling ended at ten, and at twelve he was bound apprentice to his brother James, a printer, who published the "New England Courant." To this journal he became a contributor, and later was for a time its nominal editor. But the brothers quarreled, and Benjamin ran away, going first to New York, and thence to Philadelphia, where he arrived in October, 1723. He soon obtained work as a printer, but after a few months he was induced by Governor Keith to go to London, where, finding Keith's promises empty, he again worked as a compositor till he was brought back to Philadelphia by a merchant named Denman, who gave him a position in his business. On Denman's death he returned to his former trade, and shortly set up a printing house of his own from which he published "The Pennsylvania Gazette," to which he contributed many essays, and which he made a medium for agitating a variety of local reforms. In 1732 he began to issue his famous "Poor Richard's Almanac" for the enrichment of which he borrowed or composed those pithy utterances of worldly wisdom which are the basis of a large part of his popular reputation. In 1758, the year in which he ceases writing for the Almanac, he printed in it "Father Abraham's Sermon," now regarded as the most famous piece of literature produced in Colonial America. Meantime Franklin was concerning himself more and more with public affairs. He set forth a scheme for an Academy, which was taken up later and finally developed into the University of Pennsylvania; and he founded an "American Philosophical Society" for the purpose of enabling scientific men to communicate their discoveries to one another. He himself had already begun his electrical researches, which, with other scientific inquiries, he called on in the intervals of money-making and politics to the end of his life. In 1748 he sold his business in order to get leisure for study, having now acquired comparative wealth; and in a few years he had made discoveries that gave him a reputation with the learned throughout Europe. 其中我最喜欢的是他一生最真实的写照是他自己所说过的一句话“诚实和勤勉，应该成为你永久的伴侣。

富兰克林（1706~1790）Franklin,Benjamin
美国物理学家，发明家，政治家，社会活动家。1706年1月17日生于波士顿，1790年4月17日卒于费城。父母都是英国移民，以制造蜡烛和肥皂为业。他于12岁到印刷所里当学徒，从那时起，长期未脱离印刷工作。1727年富兰克林组织一个社团，这是1743年创立的美利坚哲学会的前身。1731年他在费城创办了北美第一个公共图书馆。1737~1753年任费城邮政局长。约在1744年开始从事电学的研究。1751年创办了费城学院（后来的宾夕法尼亚大学）。1753年，获科普利奖章。同年，他还 获得 哈佛 大学、耶鲁大学 的荣誉学位 。
1756年当选为英国皇家学会会员，1769年当选为美利坚哲学会会长。1772年他还当选为法兰西科学院的外国院士。
他是美利坚合众国的创始人之一。在美国独立战争中他积极参加反英斗争。当选为第二届大陆会议代表，并参加起草了《独立宣言》。1776~1785年出使法国，促成了美、法同盟的建立。1787年当选为制宪会议的代表，参加起草了美国宪法。他积极主张废除奴隶制度。
富兰克林是第一个在纯科学领域中享有国际声誉的美国科学家，是美国电学研究的先驱者。他对电学的研究结果统一了当时混乱的电学知识。他最主要的贡献就是对说明各种电现象的理论（如电荷的产生、电荷的移转、静电感应等）作了比较系统的阐述。最初，他热衷于发明设计小器件，这给他以后的电学实验研究打下坚实的基础。1745年起他在不到10年的时间内，利用一些简单的工具、器械进行了各种大胆的新的电学实验。通过实验，富兰克林首先提出电学史上一项重要的假说：电的单流质理论。富兰克林第一次用数学上的正负概念来表示两种电荷的性质；同时还发现了尖端放电现象。更重要的是，富兰克林提出了电的转移理论。以后，这个理论发展为电荷守恒定律，这是自然界最基本的定律之一。1747年，富兰克林对莱顿瓶进行了研究，阐明了电容器的原理。在1749~1751年间，富兰克林仔细观察和研究了雷、闪电和云的形成，提出了云中的闪电和富兰克林的风筝实验摩擦所产生的电性质相同的推测。1750年提出了关于避雷针的建议。这一建议首先于1852年在法国马利大学得到应用 。1752年他在费城进行了震动世界的电风筝实验，证明了他的“闪电和静电的同一性”设想。富兰克林还研究了带电体之间的相互吸引和排斥；不规则带电导体中的电荷分布；感应起电现象等。富兰克林创造了许多电学方面的专门名词。富兰克林相当广泛地研究和观察自然现象。他还阐述了热传导理论；研究过利用蒸发取得低温的方法；近代通风的方法 ；各种植物的移植；传染病的防治；墨西哥湾流速和温度的测量以及北美洲风暴运动的方向等等。富兰克林著名的发明有摇椅、双焦距眼镜、宾夕法尼亚火炉、高架取书架等等。
富兰克林在哲学上拥护自然神论，承认自然界的存在及其客观性。他也是最先有意识地用劳动时间来确定生产价值的人。富兰克林预言美国人口是按几何级数增加的，平均每25年增长 1 倍。这预言已为美国政府在上一世纪的人口普查所证实。富兰克林电学著作和论文有：《电的实验与观测》、《对于导电物质的性质与效应的见解和推测》、《在美国费城所进行的关于电的实验与观测》、《论闪电与静电的同一性》等。
我不知道中文译文出自什么地方，但是我知道英文源自富兰克林在1768年2月28日写给凯姆斯爵士的信。原文是这样的：
Happiness consists more in the small conveniences of pleasures that occur every day, than in great pieces of good fortune that happen but seldom to a man in the course of his life.
