     What will you be doing when you are 26 years o1d? Studying at university or working for a living? Take
a look at what Albert Einstein was doing at the age of 26.
    100 years ago, Einstein was working in Switzerland. His hobby was physics. Without much money or
help, he wrote five papers (論文) for a physics magazine. Three of these greatly changed the study of
physics and our understanding of space, time, light and matter (物質(zhì)). His most famous work is on the
Theory of Relativity (相對論). Einstein was given the Nobel Prize (諾貝爾獎) for it is discoveries. Although
he did many other things later, 1905 has been called Einstein's "Year of Wonders (奇跡)". It has been 100
years since then. Because of this, the UN has named 2005 me World Year Of Physics.
     Fifty years after Einstein's death, a question is asked, "Will there ever be another Einstein?" It may take a
1ong time. After all, Einstein was born more than 200 years after Sir Isaac Newton, another great scientist.
Besides, physics is a different field (領(lǐng)域) now, and education is different, too. Even if you can't be the
next great scientist, it is still helpful to remember some of the things that made Einstein great. He thought
independently (獨立地) and read widely. He left us with a formula (公式) for life: If A is a success in life,
men A=X+Y+Z.X is work; Y is play; and Z iskeeping your mouth shut.
