    　　Albert Einstein was a great scientist．He had many inventions all his life．He was born in 1879．As a boy he was not happy in school．He seemed to be slower than others and he often failed in his exams．Most of his teachers didn't like him．His parents, however, loved him very much．They often said to the teachers, “Albert is a bright boy．He failed in some of the exams because he had no interest in those subjects．” They believed their son would do something great．One day, the Einsteins and their friends were having a picnic by the river．Someone said, “See how happily the other children are playing and laughing, but not Albert．He is just sitting and looking at the river．” Albert's mother heard this and said, “Albert is quiet, because he's thinking．Let's wait and see．He'll become a great scientist, I believe．”

    　　She was right．Later, Albert Einstein did very well in physics．He won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1921．He became one of the greatest scientist in the world．He became very famous all over the world from then on．

    　　What will you be doing when you are 26 years old?Studying at university or working for a living?Take a look at what Albert Einstein was doing at the age of 26．

    　　100 years ago．Einstein was working in Switzerland．His hobby was physics．Without much money or help, he wrote five papers for a physics magazine．Three of these greatly change the study of physics and our understanding of space, time, light and matter．His most famous work is on the Theory of Relativity．Einstein was given the Nobel Prize for his discoveries．Although he also did many other things later, the year 1905 was called Einstein’s “Year of Wonder”．It has been 100 years since then．Because of this, the UN has named 2005 the World Year of Physics．

    　　Today, over fifty years after Einstein’s death, a question is asked, “Will there ever be another Einstein?It may take a long time．After all, Einstein was born more than 200 years after Sir Isaac Newton, another great scientist．Besides, physics is a different field now, and education is different, too．Even if you can’t be the next great scientist, it is still helpful to remember some of the things that made Einstein great．He thought independently and read widely．He left with us a formula for life：If A is a success in life, then A＝X＋Y＋Z．X is work; Y is play; and Z is keeping your mouth shut．

    　　Careful and careless are as different as fire and water. But it is strange that quite a few scientists have both these qualities (品质). They are both careful and careless. Newton, the famous English scientist, was such a person.

    　　Once Newton invited a friend to dinner at home. When they were ready to eat, Newton left to get a bottle of wine. But after his friend had waited for a long time, Newton still didn't come back. At last his friend found Newton was in the lab. When Newton was going to get the bottle of wine, he suddenly had a new idea for his experiment (实验) . So he forgot his friend and the dinner. Another time, Newton was leading a horse up a mountain, and held the rein (缰绳) in his hand. While he was walking, he kept thinking about problems. When he got to the top of the mountain, he found the rein was not in his hand and that the horse was missing.

    　　Einstein was another example. Once he was waiting for a friend at a bridge. While waiting, he became lost in thought. It started to rain. The rain kept on for some time. When he took out a piece of paper to write something down, the paper was wet and then he knew that it was raining. But after he put the paper into his pocket, he again forgot he was standing in the rain.

    1．When Newton and his friend were ready to eat, Newton ________.

    [　　]

    A．had a new idea for his experiment
    B．went to do his experiment
    C．couldn't find his way back
    D．left to get a bottle of wine

    2．Why was the horse missing when Newton got to the top of the mountain?

    [　　]

    A．He kept thinking about problems and lost the rein.

    B．He did not want to take the horse to the mountain.

    C．He didn't walk fast enough.

    D．The horse lost his way to the top of the mountain.

    3．Which of the following statements (陈述) is ture?

    [　　]

    A．Einstein kept thinking in the rain.

    B．Einstein stopped thinking because of the rain.

    C．Einstein had to wait for his friend in the rain.

    D．The rain helped Einstein to have new ideas.

    4．Newton and Einstein were careless about their ________ and careful in their ________.

    [　　]

    A．experiments, studies
    B．life, studies
    C．studies, life
    D．work, life

    5．________ scientists are both careful and careless like Newton and Einstein.

    [　　]
