Albert Einstein, the genius behind the theory of relativity, which provided a new framework for all of physics and proposed new concepts of space and time, has recently been making headlines again. However, this time it is not for a new scientific breakthrough, but because of two handwritten notes the scientist gave a bellboy 95 years ago.
The story goes something like this. In October 1922, Einstein was invited to Tokyo to deliver lectures. As the scientist was making his way from Europe to Japan, he received a telegram informing him that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. Though pleased at the news, he decided to continue with his Japanese trip instead of heading to Stockholm to accept the honor.
When in Tokyo, he penned two notes in German. One of them, written on a piece of plain paper, said, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.”
Why did Einstein write the notes? Some believe they were to express Einstein’s delight at the reception he received from the people of Japan who crowded to attend the laureate’s (获奖者)lectures. Others think they were specially written for a bellboy who came to deliver a message, either because the scientist did not have loose change to tip him, or because the messenger refused to accept tips. Regardless of the reason, Einstein purportedly told the bellboy, “Maybe if you are lucky, those notes will become much more valuable than just a regular tip.” He was right!
Earlier this year, the bellboy’s nephew decided to part with the letters and handed them to Winner’s Auctions and Exhibitions. The “theory of happiness” brought the owner an astonishing $1.56 million from a European buyer. The second note, which opened at $1,000, and expected to fetch a maximum of $6,000, sold for $240,000!
1.What made Einstein become people’s focus again?
A.The theory of relativity. B.His new concepts of space.
C.The notes written by himself. D.His notes about his theory.
2.Where did Einstein write the words?
A.Bern. B.Stockholm.
C.Germany. D.Japan.
3.How were Einstein’s lectures?
A.They had a great effect. B.They attracted a lot of people.
C.They successfully inspired people. D.They were hard to understand.
4.How might the owner of the notes feel about the deal?
A.Disappointed. B.Curious.
C.Unfair. D.Unexpected.

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
In 1905, as part of his Special Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein published the point that a large amount of energy could be released from a small amount of matter. This was expressed by equation E = me 2(energy = mass times the speed of light squared). But bombs were not what Einstein had in mind when he published this equation.
In 1929, he publicly declared that if a war broke out he would “refused to do war service, direct or indirect…” His position would change in 1933, as the result of Adolf Hitler’s coming into power in Germany.
Einstein’s greatest role in the invention of the atomic bomb was signing a letter to President Franklin Roosevelt urging that the bomb be built because some physicists feared that Germany might be working on an atomic bomb. Among those concerned were physicists Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner. But Szilard and Wigner had no influence with those in power. So in July 1939 they explained the problem to someone who did: Albert Einstein. After talking with Einstein, in August 1939 Szilard wrote a letter to President Roosevelt with Einstein’s signature on it, which was delivered to Roosevelt in October 1939.
Germany has invaded Poland the previous month; the time was ripe for action. That October research of a-bomb began but proceeded slowly because the invention of the atomic bomb seemed distant and unlikely. In April 1940 an Einstein letter, ghost-written by Szilard, pressed the researchers on the need for “greater speed”.
As the realization of nuclear weapons grew near, Einstein looked beyond the current war to future problems that such weapons could bring. He wrote to his friend about his fear about the future use of the a-bomb.
The atomic bombings of Japan occurred three months after Germany gave in.
In November 1954, five months before his death, Einstein summarized his feelings about his role in the creation of the atomic bomb: “I made one great mistake in my life… when I signed a letter to President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be made; but there was some justification---- the danger that the Germans would make them”.
1.What can we learn about Szilard and Wigner?
A. They were not as influential as Einstein.
B. They were responsible for the invention of nuclear weapons
C. They had cheated their friend Albert Einstein.
D. They had an intention to destroy the world.
2. Einstein realized his mistake of ___________.
A. co-operating with his workmates
B. inventing the atomic bomb
C. publishing his equation
D. signing the letter to President Roosevelt
3. We can conclude that Einstein ___________.
A. was important in the development of atomic bomb
B. was not involved in the invention of atomic bomb
C. directly participated in the invention of the atomic bomb
D. helped with the invention of atomic bomb
4. Why did Einstein suggest making atom bombs?
A. Because President Roosevelt asked to do so.
B. Because it was likely that Hitler would make them.
C. Because it was not in favor of President Roosevelt.
D. Because it was not necessary to do so.
5.The best title for the passage would be __________.
A. A Story of Albert Einstein
B. Albert Einstein and the Atomic Bomb
C. It was Unfair for Einstein
D. How the Atomic Bomb was Invented
