III.阅读理解 (共15小题; A, B两篇每小题2分;C篇每小题1分;满分25分)
A
Einstein is a world-famous scientist. In 1899, he studied at a famous university in Zurich (苏黎世). His teacher was Professor Minkevsky.
Once Einstein asked Minkevsky, “How can a person, like me, leave his clear footprints on the road of science and make a great contribution?” Minkevsky said that it was a “complicated” problem and he had to give him an answer later.
Three days later, Minkevsky told Einstein that the answer was coming! But he didn’t say anything. They walked toward a building site. He asked Einstein to set foot on a concrete (混凝土) road that the workers had just finished.
All the workers shouted at him. Einstein was very confused. “Sir, are you leading me the wrong way?” he asked.
“Think about it,” Minkevsky said. “Can’t you see? Only the new concrete road surface can leave deep footprints. The old road surface has been hard for a long time. Many people

leave steps on the old road. You cannot find your footprint there.” Hearing that, Einstein thought for a long time and nodded.?
After that, a very strong sense of innovation(创新) began to guide Einstein’s thinking and action. He tried again and again to discover new theories. Nobody could tell him what to do. No book could guide him. But he said, “I never memorize what dictionaries carry. My brain only remembers those things that are not included in books.” It was because of this that Einstein left his shining footprints in the history of science. 31. In 1899, Einstein was __________.
