Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955)was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of general relativity, effecting a revolution in physics. For this achievement, Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics and one of the most prolific intellects in human history. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect（光电效应）. 灵感 inspiration 易坍塌的 precariously 瘟疫 plague 荒唐的 grotesque 尊敬的，恭敬的 reverent 打盹 doze off 爆发 outburst Vocabulary 3 unit4 ——By Group Three Imagination and Creativity Vocabulary 1 Vocabulary 2 Translation 1 Vocabulary 3 Translation 2 Background Background Vocabulary 1 Vocabulary 1 专利 in a row 毫无疑问 自由的 strain remarkable 使紧张，拉紧 连续地 beyond (any) doubt 非凡的；值得注意的 patent loose Vocabulary 1 assessment 得出结论 小心，谨慎 把… …归于 accordingly orthodox 因此，相应地 caution come to /reach a conclution 正统的；传统的 credit 评价 Translation 1 Translation1 1． In Einstein’s days, if you tried to say that light was made of particles, you found yourself disagreeing with physicist James Clerk Maxwell. 在爱因斯坦的时代，你如果说光由粒子构成，那你就会和当时的权威历史学家James Clerk Maxwell意见相左。 Translation1 2.
