When he was 16, he tried to enter university in Switzerland, but failed due to his low scores in the general part of the entrance exam, despite obtaining exceptional scores in maths and physics. After studying for another year, he managed to pass the exam, entering university in 1896 and graduating in 1900. 由于 入学考试 杰出成绩 设法做 exceptional adj.优越的；例外的 exception n. 例外 exceptive adj.例外的 except v/prep. 把...除外 After two years of looking for work as a teacher, Einstein took a job as a clerk in the Swiss patent office.

That same year, which was later recorded as a miracle year in science, he published four extraordinary physics papers.Following this, he gradually became famous throughout the world as the new Isaac Newton.After four years, he was able to quit his job at the patent office and enter research full-time at a university.

Following that, he continued to make great achievements in physics and mathematics. 上台；掌权 因此 担任……职位 取得巨大成就 achieve one’s goal achievement n.成就 To the public, he was seen as a slightly odd-looking but kind and funny man. He had a thick moustache and long white hair, which sometimes stood on end as though he had just received an electric shock. Although he was a genius, he sometimes forgot things, like his friends birthdays.But despite his peculiarities, he was loved by his friends and neighbours.There is even a story about how he helped a little girl who knocked on his door and asked for help with her homework. In fact, Einstein often encountered people on the street who would stop him and ask him to help explain things. After many such occasions, he finally started saying, “Pardon me! Sorry!

On 18 April 1955, it was reported that Einstein had passed away, and the whole world mourned the great loss of a brilliant scientist. 哀悼 成功的；辉煌的 mournful adj.悲哀的;令人惋惜的 After-reading Summary Albert Einstein,1.　　　　　 is regarded as the greatest scientist in modern physics,was born in Germany on 14 March 1879.

Born in1930, Yuan Longping had a passion for swimming at an early age. After graduation, he committed himself to agricultural research in Hunan, breeding the hybrid rice successfully in 1975. Not only did he make numerous contributions to solving the problem of world hunger, but also inspired more people to join him. In 2019, he was awarded to the Medal of the Republic for his outstanding contributions to the hybrid rice breeding. On 22 May 2021, Yuan passed away, and our whole country mourned the great loss of a brilliant scientist. The reason why I admire him is that his dedication to work and to people sets me an good example, which truly inspires me to become a person like him in the future. 袁隆平 My role model is Qian Xuesen, an outstanding scientist titled “the Father of China’s space program”. Qian was born in December, 1911 and passed away in October, 2009. Having graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 1934, he set out for Massachusetts Institute of Technology to pursue advanced study in 1935, and a year later California Institute of Technology, where he obtained two doctorates in 1939. Out of a strong love for his homeland, he was determined to go back to China. Though encountering many difficulties, eventually he made his return to China with great resolution in 1955. He devoted himself whole-heartedly to scientific research during his lifetime, making remarkable achievements in the Chinese aerospace industry. Greatly inspired by his patriotism and self-sacrifice, I’m longing to make great contributions to our country as well. 钱学森 The person I admire most is Tu Youyou, a committed and patient scientist. Born in Ningbo in 1930, Tu Youyou graduated from Peking University. In 1967, she was chosen to join a team of scientists with the objective of discovering a new treatment for malaria. Her team examined many old medical texts, and evaluated lots of plants for their medical properties. From their research, they found a substance that worked. They even insisted on testing the medicine on themselves to make sure that it was safe. Finally the medicine, which was called artemisinin, soon became a standard treatment for malaria and saved thousands of lives. Tu Youyou’s work is so important that the Nobel Prize of 2015 was awarded to her. Tu Youyou, who is not interested in fame, said it was a team effort. Tu Youyou is considered as a model for other people, inspiring more people to make great contributions to our country. 屠呦呦 Lavf57.0.100 Coded by New Bilibili Transcoder v1.2 Lavf58.29.100 Bilibili VXCode Swarm Transcoder v0.7.64 $$
