注意事项
Albert Einstein
is truly
one of the greatest
minds of all time. His
1.
is
most famous
for bringing us the
mathematical
2
equation, E =
MC
.
This equation is also
2.
the theory of
relativity.
However,
Einstein's
3.
to
physics and politics
were
many. His
theories are
4.
for a
change in physics. It
is because of them
that we
have our
current
understanding of
many of
physics'
basic
5.
.
Born in Germany in
1879, he enjoyed
6.
music and played the
violin.
Even as a small
boy he was very
7.
.
Einstein liked to tell
how
he was
8.
as a
child by the compass.
It was the compass
that
9.
his further
theoretical
research.
The compass
10.
him that there was
things, something
deeply hidden.
In 1933 he
moved and
settled down in
America and joined a
11.
of scientists at
the
Institute for
Advanced Study in
Princeton, New
Jersey. He
was never
12.
about his
purpose. Einstein
worked hard to
13.
the basic concepts of
physics with one
another.
This lead him
to
14.
questions
related to the
structure of light and
movement of energy
particles. He
15.
and
proved
something
that was unknown
before. Particles of
light
can act like
16.
particles of energy.
Einstein and several
other
scientists told
President Roosevelt
of a
17.
to mankind
from
Nazi Germany.
The Nazis were trying
to build a
18.
bomb.
19.
after, the United
States
Government
took action. The US
likewise
20.
its
research on
building
an atomic bomb.
Besides all of his
accomplishments
mentioned
here,
Einstein also received
the greatest honor in
physics, the Nobel
Prize.
Questions 21 to
40 are
based on the following
passage.
My
divorce was
disastrous. We had a
prenuptial
21.
. We
did this because he
had been married
before and
wanted to
reduce his
22.
to
future problems. He
had
23.
a fortune
from
his father. Still,
he had
24.
considerable wealth. I
25.
there was a
sword hanging
over
my head with a
prenuptial agreement.
However, I didn't
really
know
26.
he
was trying to protect.
That is, I didn't have
any
idea what he was
trying to
27.
himself
from.
It
was very
28.
when
he asked me. But I
had already sent out
the
29.
for our
wedding. So I
decided
to give my
30.
and
go ahead with the
marriage. I suppose
that I
liked being a(n)
31.
bride too much.
Upon reflection, it
was a
poor
32.
for
marriage.
After the divorce, my
child
from my
33.
marriage and I had
nothing.
Our
34.
couldn't have been
any
worse. I had not
been working,
35.
he
told me not to. The
house was his before
we were
married, so
my son and I had to
36.
.
37.
was a
broken chest of
drawers and some
clothing.
My lawyer is
encouraging me to
38.
the prenuptial
agreement. He
says
that I have a
39.
because my husband
never let
me work.
And also there was a
lot of
40.
when I
signed.
Still, I just
want a little help until
I can find a job and
get
back on my feet
financially.

After the
violent
earthquake that shook
Los Angeles in 1994,
earthquake scientists had
good news to report: The
damage and death toll
(
死
亡人数
) could have
been
much worse.
More than
60 people died
in this earthquake. By
comparison, an
earthquake of
similar
intensity
(
强度
) that shook
America in 1988 claimed
25,000 victims.
Injuries and
deaths were
relatively less in Los
Angeles because the
quake
occurred at 4:31
a.m. on a holiday,
when
traffic was light on the
city's highways. In
addition, changes made
to
the construction codes
(
准则
) in Los
Angeles
during the last 20 years
have strengthened the
city's
buildings and
highways, making them
more resistant to quakes.
Despite the good news,
civil
engineers aren't
resting on their
successes. Pinned to
their
drawing boards are
blueprints
(
蓝图
) for
improved
quake-resistant
buildings. The new
designs should offer even
greater security to cities
where earthquakes often
take
place.
In the past, making
structures quake-resistant
meant firm yet flexible
materials, such as steel
and
wood, that bend
without breaking.
Later,
people tried to lift a
building off its foundation,
and insert rubber and
steel
between the building
and its foundation
to
reduce the impact of
ground vibrations
(
振动
).
The most
recent designs
give buildings brains as
well as concrete and steel
supports. Called smart
buildings, the structures
respond like living
organisms to an
earthquake's
vibrations.
When the ground shakes
and the building tips
forward, the computer
would
force the building to
shift in the
opposite
direction.
The new
smart structures
could be very
expensive
to build. However, they
would save many lives
and
would be less likely to
be damaged
during
