He made many great contributions (贡献) to the world and his Theory of Relativity is the best-known one. Albert Einstein was born in Germany on March 14, 1879. He went to his primary school when he was 6 years old. In 1894, his whole family moved to Munich to finish his studies. In 1895, he went to Switzerland (瑞士) and later studied physics at the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School. There he got his doctorate successfully in 1900. As a child, he showed great talents in math and physics. He always kept thinking and tried his best to know the answers. For example, in 1910, Einstein asked a question which many children often ask, “Why is the sky blue?” After his careful research, he answered the question perfectly. Most scientists are quiet and hardly talk with others. But Einstein wasn’t. One day someone asked Albert Einstein, “Your Theory of Relativity is so hard to understand. Could you describe it in a simple way?” The great man looked at him quietly first and then said with a smile “Well, when you stay in a toilet, you’ll feel time goes slowly. But while you are with a pretty girl, you’ll feel time goes too fast. ” In the 1930s, Einstein became the target of the Nazi Party. He had to go to America so that he couldn’t get killed. All his life, he hated war. In 1955, Albert Einstein died in America. But he still lives in people’s hearts and we will never forget him. 46.
