共享题干题 （一）Einstein Named "Person of the Century"根据以下材料，回答下列的问题。 Albert Einstein, whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel (解决) the secrets of the atom and of the universe, was chosen as "Person of the Century" by Time magazine on Sunday. A man whose very name is synonymous ( 同义的) with scientific genius, Einstein has come to represent more than any other person the flowering of 20th century scientific though that set the stage for the age of technology. "The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic, but technological—technologies that flowed directly from advances in basic science," wrote theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking in a Time essay explaining Einstein's significance.________(46) Time chose as runner-up President Franklin Roosevelt to represent the triumph of freedom and democracy over fascism, and Mahatma Gandhi as an icon (象征) for a century when civil and human rights became crucial factors in global politics. "What we saw was Franklin Roosevelt embodying the great theme of freedom's fight against totalitarianism, Gandhi personifying ( 象征，体现) the great theme of individuals struggling for their rights, and Einstein being both a great genius and a great symbol of a scientific revolution that brought with it amazing technological advances that helped expand the growth of freedom," said Time Magazine Editor Walter Isaacson. Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany in 1879.________(47) He was slow to leam to speak and did not do well in elementary school. He could not stomach organized learning and loathed taking exams. In 1905, however, he was to publish a theory which stands as one of the most intricate examples of human imagination in history.________(48) Everything else- mass,weight, space, even time itself--is a variable (变量) . And he offered the world his now-famous equation (等量) ： energy equals mass times the speed of light squared-E=mc2.________(49)"There was less faith in absolutes, not only of time and space but also of truth and morality." Einstein's famous equation was also the seed that led to the development of atomic energy and weapons. In 1939, six years after he fled European fascism and settled at Princeton University, Einstein, an avowed pacifist, signed a letter to President Roosevelt urging the United States to develop an atomic bomb before Nazi Germany did.________ (50)Einstein did not work on the project. Einstein died in Princeton, New Jersey in 1955.1.[不定向选择题]________A."Indirectly, relativity paved the way for a new relativism in morality, art and politics,"Isaacson wrote in an essay explaining Time's choices. B.How he thought of the relativity theory influenced the general public's view about Albert Einstein. C."Clearly, no scientist better represents those advances than Albert Einstein."

1.参考答案：F
参考解析：本段主要介绍爱因斯坦提出的相对论。第一句话告诉我们，1905年的时候爱因斯坦发表了一个人类历史上展现出最具奇巧想象力的理论，第三、四句话是具体解释相对论。F说：“在‘特殊相对论’中，爱因斯坦描述了宇宙中为什么唯一恒定的是光速。”由此看来F放在此处最合适，其中constant和variable意思相反，构成了词汇衔接(lexical cohesion)。
2.参考答案：C
参考解析：本文主要讲爱因斯坦为20世纪人类科学做出的重大贡献。本段是理论物理学家史蒂芬?霍金在《时代》杂志上发表的一篇评价爱因斯坦所做贡献的文章中的几句话。他说：世界在过去的100年发生的变化比以往任何一个世纪都大得多，其原因不在于政治或经济，而在于技术——由于基础科学的进步而直接造就的新技术。这两句话并未提及爱因斯坦，因此此处选C最合适。C项意为：“显然，没有一位科学家能比爱因斯坦更好地代表这些科学进步。”those在此发挥了衔接作用。3.[不定向选择题]________A."Indirectly, relativity paved the way for a new relativism in morality, art and politics,"Isaacson wrote in an essay explaining Time's choices. B.How he thought of the relativity theory influenced the general public's view about Albert Einstein. C."Clearly, no scientist better represents those advances than Albert Einstein."
