1. текст и письменно ответьте на вопросы после него: Albert Einstein: The Greatest Scientist of the 20th Century

Not many people really deserve the title "genius" but Albert Einstein was one of them. His discoveries have changed the way we understand our world today. Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879. He was a very slow learner at first. He even had trouble learning to speak! His parents were really worried.
As a boy, Albert was very unhappy at school, and the schoolmaster treated him badly because they thought he was not very clever. His marks were usually bad.
In 1896 Albert went to Zurich to study at one of the best technical universities. There his abilities in mathematics and physics began to show. After he graduated in 1902, Einstein took a job at the Swiss Patent Office. 1905 was his "Miracle Year", as he published three important essays including one on the "Special Theory of Relativity". Later Einstein wrote "The Theory of Gravity" and "The General Theory of Relativity". Soon he became a world-wide celebrity.
In 1914 Einstein moved back to Berlin. In 1921 Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics, and modestly travelled third class to Stockholm to receive it. He used his influence to lecture around Europe and the USA to promote world peace. Soon the Nazis came to power in Germany. So in 1933 he had to go to America where he lived for the rest of his life. He died on April 18th, 1955 in New Jersey, leaving behind a new way for us to look at the world.
