当我开始阐述自己的见解时,他叫我把方程式写在黑板上,这样他就能明白它们是怎么展开。
接着他提出了一个令人惊鄂但又非常可爱的请求:“请你漫漫地写,我理解东西不快。
”这种话竟出自爱因斯坦之口!他说得很温和,我笑了。
从此残留的畏惧之情都烟消云散了。
爱因斯坦于1879年出生在德国的乌尔姆市。
他并非神童式的人物。
事实上他说话很晚,他的父母甚至担心他是弱、智儿。
上学后,虽然老师们看不出他有什么天分,但天才的迹象已经显露。
例如,他自学微积分,老师们有些怕他,因为他总问些他们回答不出的问题。
因此,十六岁时他就问自己是否当人跟着光波跑得一样快的时候它会好像是静止的。
由这一天真的问题的引发,十年之后他创立了相对论。
爱因斯坦没有通过苏黎士瑞士联邦工艺学校的入学考试,但在一年后被录取了。
在那,他除了完成规定的学业外,还自修了物理学的经典著作。
他申请教学职位没有通过,终于在1902年在伯尔尼找了一个专利督察员的差使,三年后,他的天才结出了累累硕果。
在令人难忘的1905年,他创造了很多非同寻常的东西,其中就有相对论极其著名的衍生公式,E≒mc (能量等于质量乘以光速的平方),以及有关光的量子论。
这两个理论不仅具有革命性,而且表面上看来是相互对立的:前者与光波论联系紧密,后者则表示光似乎由粒子构成。
但这个不为人知的年轻人大胆地将这两个理论同时抛出----- 而且他的这两个理论都是正确的,至于他为何是正确的,其中的缘由过于复杂,此处就不多说了。
与爱因斯坦一同工作是令人无法忘怀的经历。
1937年,我和波兰物理学家利奥波德.因费尔德问他能否与他一起工作。
他听到这个提议很高兴,因为他有个关于地心引力的想法有待进一步深入探讨。
这样我们不仅了解了作为朋友的爱因斯坦,也了解了作为专家的他。
他专心致志的强度和深度简直令人难以置信。
着手解决一个棘手问题时,他会像动物追咬猎物一样坚持不懈。
当我们的工作遇到似乎难以逾越的障碍时,他会站起身,把笔放到桌子上,用他腔调奇特的英语说着“我要显一显”(他发不准“想”这个音)。

3. Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827), German composer, was one of music‟s greatest geniuses. His works have a rare originality, emotional depth, and expressive power. He was known for his nine symphonies, piano concertos and sonatas, and string quartets. Most of Beethoven‟s compositions were written in the classical forms established by his predecessors Mozart and Haydn, so he is sometimes considered the last great composer in the classical tradition. But he also remoulded and expanded the old forms and infused them with highly personal intensity of emotion, so he is also referred to as the first of the Romantics.
5. The Nazis Nazism is a political doctrine of racial supremacy, nationalism, and dictatorship. Nazi is an abbreviated form of the German words for National Socialism. It was Adolf Hitler, a member of national Socialist German Workers‟ Party, who developed the programme for Nazism in his book Mein Kampf (1925 – 1927 My Battle). He defined the Germanic peoples as race, called Aryans, superior to other races. He blamed Germany‟s troubles on Jewish capitalism, communism, and the heavy reparation payments Germany was required to make to the victorious Allies by the Treaty of Versailles (June 28, 1919) that ended the First World Warard Nobel (1833 – 1896), a distinguished Swedish chemist and industrialist, provided for the award of the Nobel prizes. He experimented with different kinds of explosives such as nitroglycerin and dynamite, both deadly explosives. However, he was a pacifist and he feared that his inventions might further warfare. In his will he left about $9,000,000,00 in a fund to reward those who did most for their fellow men in science, literature, and peace. In his will, he specified that the interest accrued by the fund “be annually distributed in the form of prizes to those who during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind” in the field of physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace, regardless of nationality.

that had crawled all the way up from Miramar and lay in wait for us somewhere in a deep pool of the arroyo – a monster no less real because he lived only in our imagination. 4 When the older boys of the village came to the pond on Sunday afternoons we watched them swim and dive. From a high branch of the big nogal they dropped a swing made of bush vines we called liana, braided like the women of the pueblo3 did their hair. The boy who was to dive next waited up in the nogal.

It sounds irrational that a person does not know what he himself thinks before he sees what he says.

The word specifically refers to the Watergate Hotel, one of the plushest hotels in Washington D.C."Watergate" has entered the political lexicon as a term synonymous with corruption and scandal. It was here that the Watergate Burglars broke into the Democratic Party's National Committee offices on June 17, 1972.The story of Watergate has an intriguing historical and political background, arising out of political events of the 1960s. But the chronology of the scandal really begins during 1972, when the burglars were arrested. By 1973, Richard Nixon had been re-elected President, but the storm clouds were building. By early 1974, the nation was consumed by Watergate. Nixon made three major speeches on the Watergate scandal during 1973 and 1974.Political investigations began in February 1973 when the Senate established a Committee to investigate the Watergate scandal. The Committee uncovered the existence of the secret White House tape recordings, sparking a major political and legal battle between the Congress and the President.In 1974, the House of Representatives authorized the Judiciary Committee to consider impeachment proceedings against Nixon. Nixon's last days in office came in late July and early August, 1974. The House Judiciary Committee voted to accept three of four proposed Articles of Impeachment of the President.The final blow came with the decision by the Supreme Court to order Nixon to release more White House tapes. Around the country, there were calls for Nixon to resign.At 9 pm on the evening of August 8, 1974, Nixon delivered a nationally televised resignation speech. The next morning, he made his final remarks to the White House staff before sending his resignation letter to the Secretary of State, Dr. Henry Kissinger.The Watergate brought down Richard Nixon, and had profound consequences in the United States.Nixon died in 1994 and was eulogized by the political establishment, although he was still a figure of controversy.Part Division of the text:Part one: The reason why the writer finds it difficult to write on the subject of lying and how she is going to deal with the difficulty in composing the essay.Part Two: The writer discusses four types of lies and tells us what she thinks about them respectively.Part Three: How the author feels we should cope with the question of whether or not to lie.Language Study1. intrigue--- Interest greatly; 有兴趣e.g. He’s always been intrigued by machinery. 他总是对机器很着迷。

Beethoven's musical style
Beethoven was a music revolutionary giant. 贝多芬则是一位音乐的革命巨人。
Beethoven's symphonies(交响曲) is mainly written about the hero of the Revolutionary struggle(革命斗争) His music created rich and varied image, the use of each of his works in sonata(奏鸣曲) form has its own characteristics. 他创作的形象丰富多样,运用在他的每一部lso the author of The Strange Story of the Quantum, The Tyranny of Testing, About Vectors, and Relativity and Its Roots. He was a member of the Baker Street Irregulars and wrote the short story Sherlock, Shakespeare, and the Bomb, published in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in February 1966.
2.Beethoven in many respects directly inherited and developed the Mozart's art.
Mozart's musical style
1.Mozart is a unique prodigy in the history of music. 2.the most prominent feature of Mozart's musical style is maintaining an unmatched fluency and singing. 3.Mozart‘s piano music is full of quiet, fantasy, romance and simple,but it captures the most basic and beautiful feeling of the listener. 莫扎特是音乐史上独一无二的天才神童。 其音乐风格最突出的特点,就是保持着一种无与伦比的流畅性与 歌唱性。 他的钢琴音乐中充满了宁静,幻想,浪漫,简约却抓住了聆乐人内心 基本,最美好的感受。
He obtained his Ph.D. from University of Zurich. He later became professor at the Kaiser-Wilhelm Gesellschaft in Berlin.

Birth and Childhood
• Albert was born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. • Parents Hermann and Pauline were non observant Jews whose family business consisted of the manufacturing of electrical parts.
The house where Einstein was born.
Early Schooling
Albert received good grades but found his schooling restricting as it depended on memorization and obedience. His real studies were done at home while reading science and math textbooks. He left his school in Munich at age 15, to join his parents who had moved to Italy.
Conclusion
可以说听莫扎特的钢琴音乐时是怀着一种高尚的宁静来细细咀嚼的,仿佛 是走进了一个繁花似锦的花园,静静的享受着古典的建筑,庭中小径,月光 下的路灯,小草鲜花,清亮的流水声,漫天的星斗倒影在小池中……一曲终 了,可以怀着安逸悄然入睡。而在欣赏贝多芬的钢琴作品时心中往往是不 能平静的。如《月光》奏鸣曲中,第一乐章好象皓月当空,一派安宁景象, 第二乐章则如月映池底,波光澜澜,第三乐章是无论如何也难以让人联想到 月亮的。其急风暴雨般的演奏典型地表现出了贝多芬的风格。所以,贝多 芬和莫扎特的区别就在于两人都赐给人类美妙的音乐,可美的不一样,美的 一快,一慢;一个入世,一个出世;一个正视生活的困难,一个则用含着眼泪的 微笑面对严酷的生活。

• 有一天他说莫扎特是所有作曲家中最伟大的一位,这让我吃惊不小。 他认为贝多芬的音乐是"创造"出来的,而莫扎特的音乐是如此纯净和 优美,让人感觉他只是在哪儿"发现"了它---它一直是宇宙内在的美的 一部分,一直存在着,等待着我们去发现。

Special Relativity(1905) 狭义相对论
The laws of physics are the same for all observers in uniform motion relative to one another (principle of relativity). The speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all observers, regardless of their relative motion or of the motion of the light source.
Scientific Works
E=mc² This equation expresses the deep connection between energy and mass. E represents energy, m represents mass, and c² is a very large number, the square of the speed of light.

Relationship with Einstein
He was a British mathematician and physicist known for his association with Albert Einstein. While at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, Hoffmann collaborated with Einstein and Leopold Infeld on the classic paper Gravitational Equations and the Problem of Motion. What Einstein, Infeld, and Hoffmann showed was that the equation of motion followed directly from the field equation that defined the geometry.

Evaluation of Einstein
• One day he surprised me by saying Mozart was the greatest composer of all. Beethoven "created" his music, but the music of Mozart was of such purity and beauty one felt he had merely "found" it - that it had always existed as part of the inner beauty of the Universe, waiting to be revealed.
