THE MAN WHO CHANGED OUR
UNDERSTANDING OF THE UNIVERSE
Albert Einstein, who is perhaps the greatest scientist in modern physics, is often considered one of the smartest men who ever lived.He made numerous contributions to the world, the most wellknown being the general theory of relativity1 and the famous formula E=mc2. Einstein was not only a genius2;he was a courageous and kind figure loved by many people.
This gentle genius was born in Germany on 14 March 1879. 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.
After two years of looking for work as a teacher, Einstein took a job as a clerk in the Swiss patent office.While working there, out of a strong passion3 for knowledge, he continued to study,earning a doctorate in physics in 1905. 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 fulltime at a university. In 1922, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric4 effect.
Circumstances changed in 1933, when Hitler came to power in Germany. Einstein, who was Jewish, found the doors of academic institutions5 closed to him. As a consequence, he had to flee Germany. After spending time in Europe, he finally took up a position6 as a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA. Following that, he continued to make great achievements in physics and mathematics.
To the public, he was seen as a slightly oddlooking 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's birthdays.But despite his peculiarities7, 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 encountered8 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! Always I am mistaken for Professor Einstein!”
On 18 April 1955, it was reported that Einstein had passed away, and the whole world mourned the great loss of a brilliant scientist.

1.Communications changed with the introduction of mobile phones, and the way we correspond went from writing letters to emailing and sending instant messages.(教材P52)
随着移动电话的出现,我们的通信方式发生了变化,从写信变成了发电子邮件和发送即时消息。

This is the best way he can remember the words.
这是他能记住单词的最好方法。
He loved the way she smiled。
他喜欢她微笑的样子。
[句式拓展]
way意为“方式;方法”时,如果在定语从句中作状语,定语从句可以用that或in which来引导,也可以省略引导词;如果在后面的定语从句中作主语或宾语,定语从句一般用that或which来引导,也可以省略引导词(作宾语时)。
You should pay attention to the way (that/in which)you speak to your parents.
你应该注意与父母讲话的方式。(作状语)
The way that/which was put forward by the kid was reasonable.
那孩子提出的方法是合理的。(作主语)

★名师点睛 除了定语从句之外,way后面的定语还可以是动词不定式或of短语。

没有办法证明是他偷了那笔钱。

我们开始坐飞机周游世界,将人造卫星发射至轨道。同时,科学家们发现了如何分裂原子。在此之前,原子被认为是宇宙中最小的物质微粒。
[句式剖析] 句中的previously thought to be the smallest particle of matter in the universe是过去分词短语,在此处作后置定语。过去分词(短语)作定语,与所修饰词语之间通常存在被动关系;少数过去分词也可表示完成,不表被动。
Have you read the novel written by Dickens?
你读过狄更斯写的这本小说吗?
He is a retired teacher loved and respected by all.
他是一位受到大家爱戴和尊敬的退休教师。
She is sweeping up the fallen leaves on the ground.
她正在打扫地上的落叶。(fallen表完成,不表被动)
★名师点睛 过去分词(短语)作定语的几个特征。
(1)前置与后置的特征:单个的过去分词作定语一般要放在所修饰的名词之前,过去分词短语作定语则要放在所修饰的名词之后。
a used stamp
一枚用过的邮票
the letter sent to our manager
那封寄给我们经理的信
(2)展示出的时态特征:及物动词的过去分词含有被动或完成的含义。
The government decided to rebuild the damaged bridge.
政府决定重建那座被毁坏的大桥。
The electric bicycles produced by our factory are of high quality.
我们厂生产的电动自行车质量很高。
(3)扩展成句的特征:过去分词作定语时,可通过添加引导词和系动词be的适当形式,扩展为一个定语从句。
What can I do to rescue the girl (who is)trapped in the big fire?
我做些什么才能营救被困在大火中的女孩呢?
[迁移应用]
用所给词的适当形式填空
(1)The fox shot (shoot) in the legs couldn't run any longer.
(2)Vegetables bought (buy) from the supermarket are always fresh.
(3)The concert given (give) by the symphony orchestra was a great success.
3.He doublechecked and saw a blue mould in the dish around which the bacteria had been destroyed.(教材P52-P53)
他仔细检查,发现盘子里有一个蓝色的霉菌,在它周围的细菌已经被消灭了。
[句式剖析] 这是一个复合句。around which引导的是定语从句,修饰a blue mould。
It's an issue around which there is a wide variation of opinions.
在这个问题上,人们的看法有很大差异。
[句式拓展]
“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句
(1)在“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句中,若先行词是人或物,紧接在介词后的关系代词分别使用whom或which,不能使用who或that。
You may find yourself in situations in which you have to introduce yourself.
你或许会发现你处于必须要介绍自己的情况之中。
The games in which he competed were swimming and shooting.
他参加的竞赛项目是游泳和射击。(which不可换为that)
(2)不是所有的介词都能提到从句句首。一般来说,若定语从句中的某些短语动词或固定词组后的介词与动词之间关系较为密切,动词后的介词则不可提至从句句首。因为若将介词提前,其中的短语动词或词组则会失去它们本身的意义或可能使句子产生歧义,如look after、look for等。
This is the pen which I'm looking for.
(通常不说:This is the pen for which I'm looking.)
这就是我正在寻找的那支笔。
(3)“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句时,介词的选用主要根据三条原则:
①根据定语从句中谓语动词的习惯搭配来考虑。
Have you met the person about whom he was speaking?
你见过他正提到的那个人吗?
②根据先行词的习惯搭配或意义来考虑。
The farm on which we worked ten years ago isn't what it used to be.
10年前我们工作过的那个农场已不是过去的样子了。
③根据句子的具体含义来考虑。
The pen with which he is writing now was bought yesterday.
他现在写字用的那支笔是昨天买的。
[迁移应用]
单句填空
(1)China is a beautiful country, of which we are greatly proud.
(2)This is the student by whom my daughter was saved.
(3)He built a telescope through which he could study the skies.
(4)The person to whom you should write is Mr.Ball.
4.With the development of computers, people expected to get more things done efficiently.(教材P53)
随着计算机的发展,人们期望能有效率地完成更多的事情。
[句式剖析] 这是一个简单句。with介词短语作状语,动词不定式短语作expected的宾语,其中get more things done属于“get+宾语+宾语补足语”结构。
You must get the work finished ahead of time.
你们必须提前完成这项工作。
I got my motorcycle repaired yesterday afternoon.
昨天下午我把摩托车修好了。
[句式拓展]
get+doing sth.开始做某事
get+宾语+adj.使/让……变得……
get+宾语+to do sth.让/使/叫……做某事
get+宾语+doing使某动作进行起来
get+宾语+done要别人做某事或遭遇某事
I'll get the children ready for school.
我让孩子做好上学的准备。
Can you try to get them to bring down the price?
你能让他们降低价格吗?

(2)Getting the factory going (go) in these hard times is almost impossible.
(3)She got her glasses broken (break) when playing basketball with her friends.
