His early life was not like that of a typical “smart kid.” Unlike other children, he learned to speak later than usual, and in traditional classrooms, he often seemed not to pay attention—some teachers even thought he might not be very smart. But deep down, he was extremely curious about how the universe works, and this curiosity would later lead him to make amazing scientific discoveries. When he grew up, Einstein became one of the most influential theoretical physicists in history. His most important work is the Theory of Relativity (相对论), which completely changed how we understand space, time, and gravity. This theory has two main parts: the Special Theory of Relativity (for objects moving at a constant (不变的) speed without gravity) and the General Theory of Relativity (for objects speeding up or under the influence of gravity). A key equation (公式) from this theory is E=mc²—it clearly shows that energy (E) and mass (m) are connected, with (c) being the speed of light in a vacuum (真空). This idea later helped develop nuclear physics. Besides his scientific achievements, Einstein was also a person who spoke up for peace and human rights. In the 1930s, when the Nazi government took power in Germany, Einstein had to leave the country. This was because he was Jewish, and the Nazis hated Jewish people. He moved to the United States and took a job at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. There, he kept doing important scientific research until the end of his career. Even though the Theory of Relativity made Einstein very famous, he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics not for this theory (some scientists still discussed it at that time) but for explaining the photoelectric effect (光电效应). This effect happens when light of a certain type pushes electrons (电子) out of a material. His explanation provided key proof that light can act like tiny particles (粒子), and this helped build the basis for quantum mechanics (量子力学). In his free time, Einstein found comfort and new ideas in music. He was good at playing the violin and often played chamber music with friends. He thought music and science were connected—both needed people to find patterns and explore things we don’t yet understand. Einstein died in 1955 when he was 76 years old, but his ideas still matter today. His theories help guide modern physics, from studying black holes to making GPS (the system that helps us find places) work better. Also, his fight for peace still encourages scientists and activists all over the world. 1. What does the author want to show by mentioning “some teachers even thought he might not be very smart” in Einstein’s early life? A. Teachers in the past were not good at judging students. B. Einstein’s talents were not easy to see when he was young. C. Einstein didn’t work hard in his early school years. D. Traditional classrooms were not suitable for all students. 2. Which part of Einstein’s work helped develop nuclear physics? A. The photoelectric effect. B. The equation E=mc² from the Theory of Relativity. C. His research on quantum mechanics. D. His study of black holes. 3. What can we infer from the fact that Einstein won the Nobel Prize for the photoelectric effect instead of the Theory of Relativity? A. The photoelectric effect was easier to understand. B. The Theory of Relativity was not true at that time. C. Scientific achievements need time to be accepted. D. The Nobel Committee preferred practical research. 4. Why does the author mention “GPS” when talking about Einstein’s legacy? A. To show Einstein invented GPS technology. B. To give an example of how Einstein’s theories are used today. C. To explain what modern physics focuses on. D. To prove GPS is more important than black hole research. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. C 4. B 【解析】本文通过爱因斯坦的成长经历、科学贡献及社会活动，展现了他如何从“不被看好的孩子”成为改变世界的科学家，并强调其理论对现代科技与人类思想的深远影响。 1. 推理判断题。根据“His early life was not like that of a typical ‘smart kid.’…some teachers even thought he might not be very smart”可知，作者提到爱因斯坦幼年时老师认为他“不聪明”，是为了对比他后来的伟大成就，说明他的天赋在童年时期未被察觉。故选B。 2. 细节理解题。根据“A key equation from this theory is E=mc²…This idea later helped develop nuclear physics.”可知，方程 E=mc² 揭示了质量与能量的关系，推动了核物理发展。故选B。 3. 推理判断题。根据“Even though the Theory of Relativity made Einstein very famous, he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics not for this theory (some scientists still discussed it at that time) but for explaining the photoelectric effect”可知，爱因斯坦因光电效应而非相对论获奖，原因是相对论在当时仍有争议，可见科学成就需要时间被接受。故选C。 4. 细节理解题。根据“His theories help guide modern physics, from studying black holes to making GPS (the system that helps us find places) work better.”可知，作者提到GPS是为了举例说明爱因斯坦理论的现代应用。故选B。 B When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old, he imagined himself riding alongside a beam (束) of light. He used this picture in mind to help him when thinking about the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginings, like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party, According to China’s health authorities (权威机构), daydreaming for a while each day can improve your health and creativity. Disappearing into a daydream lets your mind have a rest when things are difficult. It helps you deal with worries and fears. For example, imagining how you’re going to speak up in class is like practicing the scene (场景) in your head, which can make you feel calmer. Daydreaming also inspires (激发) creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits to what you can do or who you are. Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream. “Thinking for pleasure can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be absent when you need to focus (聚焦) in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success, like scoring a goal in the World Cup. To inspire creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you. 1. Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A. Giving an example. B. Raising a question. C. Listing numbers. D. Giving reasons. 2. What does Guo Qiang first advise? A. Running away from the hard time. B. Looking for new worlds. C. Finding time to imagine. D. Focusing on success. 3. What is mentioned in paragraph 4? A. The steps to daydream. B. The things to daydream of. C. The reasons for daydreaming. D. The meanings of daydreaming. 4. Daydreaming is talked about ________. A. to remind people to have a mind break B. to find solutions to homework problems C. to advise living at the moment D. to show a science research result 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B 4. A 【解析】本文讲了爱因斯坦提倡白日梦，认为想象力比知识更重要，它能提升健康、创造力，缓解压力，激发灵感，但需注意场合。 1. 细节理解题。根据“When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old ... said Einstein.”可知，第一段用了举例子的写作技巧。故选A。 2. 细节理解题。根据“Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream.”可知，郭强首先建议找到时间想象，故选C。 3. 推理判断题。根据第四段“Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success”可知，第4段提到了一些适合做白日梦的事情。故选B。 4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you.”可知，人们在休息之后通常会想出更多解决问题的办法，所以A选项“提醒人们休息一下”符合。故选A。 C 阅读回答问题 Yang Zhenning, one of the greatest physicists and educators in the world, was born in Hefei, Anhui Province, in 1922. He devoted his whole life to scientific research and education, and left a deep and lasting influence on China and the whole world. On October 18, 2025, he passed away. When he was interviewed in his later years, he often talked about his lifelong connection with science and China. “I have been lucky to live in a time of great change,” he once said, “I have seen China rise from poverty (贫穷) to strength. That has been my greatest joy.” In 1945, Yang went to the United States for further study. He kept working hard on modern physics and made great achievements. In 1957, he and Tsung-Dao Lee won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their research on parity non-conservation in weak interactions (弱相互作用中宇称不守恒). They became the first Chinese scientists to win this great honor. After living and working abroad for many years, Yang returned to China in 1999 and worked as a professor at Tsinghua University. At Tsinghua, he tried his best to build a world-class physics research center. He made great efforts to train and encourage young scientists. He donated most of his savings to set up scholarships (奖学金) for poor but excellent students. Even in his 80s and 90s, he still taught undergraduates in person. When a student once asked him why he kept teaching at such an old age, Yang smiled and said, “________.” Yang was a true patriot (爱国者) who always cared about his motherland, a great scientist who kept searching for truth, and a responsible educator who devoted himself to training talents. His spirit will always encourage Chinese teenagers to study hard and try to achieve their dreams. 1. When and where was Yang Zhenning born? 2. What’s Yang’s greatest joy? 3.

His early life was not like that of a typical “smart kid.” Unlike other children, he learned to speak later than usual, and in traditional classrooms, he often seemed not to pay attention—some teachers even thought he might not be very smart. But deep down, he was extremely curious about how the universe works, and this curiosity would later lead him to make amazing scientific discoveries. When he grew up, Einstein became one of the most influential theoretical physicists in history. His most important work is the Theory of Relativity (相对论), which completely changed how we understand space, time, and gravity. This theory has two main parts: the Special Theory of Relativity (for objects moving at a constant (不变的) speed without gravity) and the General Theory of Relativity (for objects speeding up or under the influence of gravity). A key equation (公式) from this theory is E=mc²—it clearly shows that energy (E) and mass (m) are connected, with (c) being the speed of light in a vacuum (真空). This idea later helped develop nuclear physics. Besides his scientific achievements, Einstein was also a person who spoke up for peace and human rights. In the 1930s, when the Nazi government took power in Germany, Einstein had to leave the country. This was because he was Jewish, and the Nazis hated Jewish people. He moved to the United States and took a job at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. There, he kept doing important scientific research until the end of his career. Even though the Theory of Relativity made Einstein very famous, he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics not for this theory (some scientists still discussed it at that time) but for explaining the photoelectric effect (光电效应). This effect happens when light of a certain type pushes electrons (电子) out of a material. His explanation provided key proof that light can act like tiny particles (粒子), and this helped build the basis for quantum mechanics (量子力学). In his free time, Einstein found comfort and new ideas in music. He was good at playing the violin and often played chamber music with friends. He thought music and science were connected—both needed people to find patterns and explore things we don’t yet understand. Einstein died in 1955 when he was 76 years old, but his ideas still matter today. His theories help guide modern physics, from studying black holes to making GPS (the system that helps us find places) work better. Also, his fight for peace still encourages scientists and activists all over the world. 1. What does the author want to show by mentioning “some teachers even thought he might not be very smart” in Einstein’s early life? A. Teachers in the past were not good at judging students. B. Einstein’s talents were not easy to see when he was young. C. Einstein didn’t work hard in his early school years. D. Traditional classrooms were not suitable for all students. 2. Which part of Einstein’s work helped develop nuclear physics? A. The photoelectric effect. B. The equation E=mc² from the Theory of Relativity. C. His research on quantum mechanics. D. His study of black holes. 3. What can we infer from the fact that Einstein won the Nobel Prize for the photoelectric effect instead of the Theory of Relativity? A. The photoelectric effect was easier to understand. B. The Theory of Relativity was not true at that time. C. Scientific achievements need time to be accepted. D. The Nobel Committee preferred practical research. 4. Why does the author mention “GPS” when talking about Einstein’s legacy? A. To show Einstein invented GPS technology. B. To give an example of how Einstein’s theories are used today. C. To explain what modern physics focuses on. D. To prove GPS is more important than black hole research.
