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 well-known being the general theory of relativity and the famous formula E=mc2. Einstein was not only a genius; he was a courageous and kind figure loved by many people. Para. 1: Introduction 阿尔伯特・爱因斯坦或许是现代物理学最伟大的科学家，也常被认为是有史以来最聪慧的人物之一。他为世界做出了无数贡献，其中最著名的是广义相对论以及经典公式 质能方程 E=mc²。爱因斯坦不仅是一位天才，更是一位勇敢善良的伟人，深受世人爱戴。 n. 天才；天资；天赋 who引导的非限制性定语从句 为…做贡献 人物，伟人 现代物理学 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. 这位性情温和的天才于1879 年 3 月 14 日出生在德国。16 岁时，他尝试考入瑞士的大学，虽然数学和物理成绩格外优异，但因入学考试综合科目分数偏低而未能被录取。又复读一年后，他终于通过考试，于1896 年进入大学，并在1900 年毕业。 Para. 2: Early life & education 由于；因为 成功通过 入学考试 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 passion 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 full-time at a university. In 1922, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. Para. 3: Career & achievements 在做了两年教师相关工作却始终求职无果后，爱因斯坦入职瑞士专利局，担任一名职员。在专利局工作期间，出于对知识的强烈热爱，他坚持自学深造，并于 1905 年获得物理学博士学位。同年，后来被科学界称为奇迹之年，他发表了四篇极具开创性的物理学论文。自此之后，他渐渐闻名全球，被视作新一代艾萨克・牛顿。四年后，他辞去专利局的工作，进入大学专职从事科研工作。1922 年，他因对光电效应的阐释，被授予1921 年诺贝尔物理学奖。 求职，找工作 专利局 对。。。的热爱 获得博士学位 被称为 奇迹之年 物理论文 全职 被授予 光电效应 Circumstances changed in 1933, when Hitler came to power in Germany. Einstein, who was Jewish, found the doors of academic institutions closed to him. As a consequence, he had to flee Germany. After spending time in Europe, he finally took up a position as a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA. Following that, he continued to make great achievements in physics and mathematics. Para. 4: Later life (turbulent years) 1933 年希特勒在德国掌权，时局发生了巨变。身为犹太人的爱因斯坦发现，各大学术机构都对他关上了大门。因此，他不得不逃离德国。在欧洲辗转一段时间后，他最终前往美国普林斯顿高等研究院，担任研究员一职。此后，他继续在物理学和数学领域取得了卓越成就。 掌权、上台执政 逃离德国 担任职位，就职 高等研究院 取得巨大成就 继续做某事 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! Always I am mistaken for Professor Einstein!” 在大众眼中，他外表略显古怪，却为人善良、风趣幽默。 他留着浓密的小胡子和花白长发，头发有时根根竖起，仿佛刚受过电击一般。虽是天才，他却时常忘事，就连朋友们的生日也会记不住。尽管性格举止有些与众不同，他依然深受亲友和邻居的喜爱。还有这样一则趣事：曾有一个小女孩敲开他家房门，请他帮忙辅导作业，他热心伸出了援手。事实上，爱因斯坦经常在街上被路人拦下，请他帮忙解答各种问题。经历多了之后，他最后索性打趣说道：“不好意思！抱歉！大家总把我错认成爱因斯坦教授了！” Para. 5: Appearance & Personality 长相古怪 竖立，根根竖起 n. 个性；特点；怪异的性质 敲门 vt. 偶然碰到；遇到 n. 邂逅；遭遇 The descriptions of Einstein's appearance He is smart, courageous, kind, popular, funny, peculiar and forgetful.
