He is famous for his theory of relativity and his creative way of thinking. Einstein taught me that it’s okay to ask strange questions and think differently. When I meet difficult problems in study, I don’t give up easily now. Instead, I try to look at them from new angles, just like Einstein did. His persistence also encourages me to keep trying even when I fail. I hope I can develop my creative thinking and make my own small contributions one day. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
