问答题In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home. One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur. The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him. “Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.” “I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem. The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.” He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap. “This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.” Summary: Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1) on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2) where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3) .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4) it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5) beside the car.正确答案：
1.talks 文章第一话明确指出爱因斯坦经常带着他的司机到各地演讲。
2.university 由第二段最后一句话可看出他们是到大学做演讲。
3.mathematical problem 由第五段最后一句话可以看出那个老师问的是一道非常难的数学题。
4.how to solve could answer it也就是know how to solve it。
5.in his cap in his cap是wearing the chauffeur’s cap的另一种说法。解析： 暂无解析 -

Albert Einstein,whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel 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 with scientific genius,Einstein has come to represent more than any other person the flowering of 20th century scientific thought 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一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 for a century when civil and human rights became crucial factors in global politics.
"What we saw Franklin Roosevelt embodying the great theme of freedoms fight against totalitarianism,Gandhi personifying 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 learn 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一mass,weight,space,even time itself—is a variable.And he offered the world his now-famous equation: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.________（46）
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."
D:Roosevelt heeded the advice and formed the"Manhattan Project"that secretly developed the first atomic weapon.
E:In his early years,Einstein did not show the promise of what he was to become.
F:In his"Special Theory of Relativity",Einstein described how the only constant in the universe is the speed of light.答案：C解析：本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。这篇文章主要是在介绍爱因斯坦，空格位于文章的前半部分（第三段），因此判断在空格处很可能出现总结概述爱因斯坦的影响的句子，而且空格前句中有advances，与选项C中的those advances呼应。因此判断选项C（很明显，没有哪个科学家能比爱因斯坦更好地代表这些科学成就）正确。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。本段简要介绍爱因斯坦早年的情况。E说：“爱因斯坦在小时候并未显示出日后会成为大科学家的任何天赋。”而紧接的后一句话实际上是对E的详细解释。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。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有史以来最复杂的理论，第三、四句则是具体解释相对论，F说：“在‘特殊相对论’中，爱因斯坦描述了为什么宇宙中唯一恒定的是光速。”由此看来，F放在此处最合适。故答案为F项。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。借助空格后的句意“人们不太相信绝对的东西，不仅对时间和空间的绝对性提出了质疑，而且对（以往所接受的）真理和道德也提出了质疑。”因此选A。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。空格后出现了“这个计划”，而选项D中出现的“曼哈顿计划”与之相呼应，因此判断选项D是答案。 -
第15题：
Einstein's Theory of Relativity was so pofound that only a few scientists could understand it.A:deep
B:superior
C:wide
D:narrow答案：A解析：本句意思：爱因斯坦的相对论是如此的深奥，以至于只有少数科学家能够理解它。profound意为“深刻的，深奥的”，与deep（难懂的，深奥的）意思相近。superior较高的，较好的；wide宽的；narrow窄的。 -
第16题：

文章首段在讲到highly creative art和highly creative science的区别时，提到innovative science会提出新的propositions（观点，见解），并以此为依据把不同的现象以更加coherent的方式联系起来，并通过把这些现象转化为数据来构成或测试一项新理论。因此D项概括了上述内容。 -
