In three months Jacquard had invented a loom to substitute mechanical action for the irksome and toilsome labour of the workman. The loom was exhibited at the Exposition of National Industry at Paris in 1801, and obtained a bronze medal. Jacquard was further honoured by a visit at Lyons from the Minister Carnot, who desired to congratulate him in person on the success of his invention. In the following year the Society of Arts in London offered a prize for the invention of a machine for manufacturing fishing-nets and boarding-netting for ships. Jacquard heard of this, and while walking one day in the fields according to his custom, he turned the subject over in his mind, and contrived the plan of a machine for the purpose. His friend, the manufacturer, again furnished him with the means of carrying out his idea, and in three weeks Jacquard had completed his invention.

白话
三个月后，雅卡尔发明了一种织机，用机械代替工人辛苦费力的劳动。1801年这台织机在巴黎全国工业博览会上展出，得了铜牌。卡诺部长还专程到里昂拜访他，当面祝贺。第二年伦敦艺术协会悬赏征集制造渔网和船用护舷网的机器。雅卡尔听说后，照习惯在田野散步时琢磨，想出了方案。他的制造商朋友又出钱支持，三周就完成了发明。

斯迈尔斯《自助》续讲雅卡尔发明织机获奖，以及响应伦敦悬赏造网机的事。

你手头有没有一个悬赏或难题，可以像散步时那样反复琢磨出方案？
