听力原文： Einstein had a great effect on science and history. An American university president once said that Einstein had invented a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on—but even ordinary men understand now the universe is something larger than ever thought before.
By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and quietness were broken by World War I(WWI).
Einstein hated violence. The great pain and suffering of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work:
In the years following World War I, honors were increasingly given to him. He became the head of the Caesar Wilhelm Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.

听力原文：WA Sam, when is this week's production meeting？
MA It's at ten o'clock in the Green Willow Room on the second floor. The same place as last week.
WA Right, but last week it was at eleven o'clock on a Tuesday. This week it's ten o'clock on a Wednesday. It would be easier if it was the same day and time every week.
MA I agree. But there's been so much going on over the last month, there's always been a schedule conflict for someone who is crucial to the meeting. Once we get over this busy period I'll set up a fixed recurring meeting schedule.

第三节 短文理解2
阅读下列短文，从[A]、[B]、[C]三个选项中选择一个正确答案。
Beethoven (贝多芬) was never afraid to show his feelings. Once when he was playing at a rich man's house, one of the listeners, a man of good family, was talking to a girl. He liked girls more than music, and he didn't stop talking when Beethoven started to play. The voice was not a quiet one, and Beethoven could hear well in those, days. The music stopped in the middle and Beethoven stood up. "I don't play for animals of this kind!" he cried. "No! Not for animals!" Then he walked out.
Beethoven was a ______.
A．painter
B．musician
C．chemist
Albert Einstein
Born in 1879, in Ulm, Germany, Einstein was two years old when his parents moved to Munich. There his father opened a business in electrical supplies. As a boy, Einstein did not learn to talk until later than others of his age, and in his early childhood he was not considered especially bright. But by the time he was fourteen years old, he had recovered from a slow start to the extent that he had taught himself advanced mathematics from textbooks. By then he knew what he wanted to be when he grew up. He wanted to be a physicist and devote himself to research.
The Einsteins, however, could not afford to pay for the advanced education young Einstein needed. The family business had declined, and they were forced to leave Munich to live in Milan, Italy, where they had relatives. As for Albert, the family did manage to send him to a technical school in Switzerland, and later to the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich.
In 1901, when Einstein was twenty-two years old, he began teaching, and in 1902 he went to work as a patent office examiner in Bern. Now able to pay his own expenses, he continued his schooling at the University of Zurich, where he received a doctor' s degree in 1905. This was the period when he first began the research which led to his famous theory of relativity.
To most people it is not easy to explain why Einstein' s theory has had such an immense effect upon the whole scientific and intellectual world. After its formation, scientists never again regarded the world as they had before. The theory set forth new and far-reaching conclusions about the nature of space, time, motion, mass, energy, and the relations governing all these. Basically the theory proposed, among other things, that the greatest speed possible is the speed of light; that the rate of a clock moving through space will decrease as its speed increases; and that energy and mass are equal and interchangeable. This latter claim, based on the formula "energy equals mass times the square of the speed of light" was later proved by atomic fission, on which the atomic bomb is based.
Toward the end of his life, when Einstein was asked to explain his law of relativity to a group of young students, he said: "When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, you think it's only a minute. But when you sit on a hot stove for a minute, you think it's two hours. That is relativity."
Einstein had an effect on science and history that only a few men have ever achieved. An American university president once commented that "Einstein has created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some generations before the average mind grasps the identity of time and space, and so on—but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something vaster than ever thought before."
By 1914 Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Bedim He had few duties, little teaching, and unlimited opportunities for study. It was an ideal position, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War. Einstein hated violence. Though he was not personally involved, the war and its misery affected him deeply. He lost interest in much of his research. Only when peace finally came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.
During the years following World War [, Germany heaped honors upon Einstein. He was persuaded to become director of Theoretical Physics in the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921. Prussia made him an honorary citizen. Potsdam built an Einstein Tower in its Astrophysical Institute. Berlin held public celebration on his fiftieth birthday. Being a shy man, Einstein did not attend, but he received several baskets full of cards, letters, and telegrams expressing admiration and b
