Any list of the greatest thinkers in history contains the name of the brilliant physicist Albert Einstein. His theories of relativity led to entirely new ways of thinking about time, space, matter, energy, and gravity. Einstein's work led to such scientific advances as the control of atomic energy, even television as a practical application of Einstein's work. In 1902 Einstein became an examiner in the Swiss patent office at Bern. In 1905, at age 26, he published the first of five major research papers. The first one provided a theory explaining Brownian movement, the zig-zag motion of microscopic particles in suspension. The second paper laid the foundation for the photon, or quantum, theory of light. In it he proposed that light is composed of separate packets of energy, called quanta or photons that have some of the properties of particles and some of the properties of waves. A third paper contained the "special theory of relativity" which showed that time and motion are relative to the observer, if the speed of light is constant and the natural laws are the same everywhere in the universe. The fourth paper was a mathematical addition to the special theory of relativity. Here Einstein presented his famous formula, E = m (cc), known as the energy mass equivalence. In 1916, Einstein published his general theory of relativity. In it he Page 3
4. proposed that gravity is not a force, but a curve in the space-time continuum, created by the presence of mass. Einstein spoke out frequently against nationalism, the exalting of one nation above all others. He opposed war and violence and supported Zionism, the movement to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine. When the Nazis came to power in 1933, they denounced his ideas. He then moved to the United States. In 1939 Einstein learned that two German chemists had split the uranium atom. Einstein wrote to President Franklin D. Roosevelt warning him that this scientific knowledge could lead to Germany developing an atomic bomb. He suggested the United States begin its own atomic bomb research. Question 35: Einstein's primary work was in the area of ___. A. chemistryB. biologyC. physicsD. engineering Question 36: Which of the following inventions is mentioned in the passage as a practical application of Einstein's discoveries? A. RadioB. AutomobilesC. ComputersD. Television Question 37: According to the passage, Einstein supported all of the following except ___. A. the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine B. nationalism C. atomic bomb research in the United States D. the defeat of the Nazis Question 38: In which country was Einstein born? A. SwitzerlandB. United StatesC. GermanyD. Israel Question 39: What is "Brownian movement"? A. The zig-zag motion of microscopic particles in suspension B. The emission of electrons from solids when struck by light C. The motion of photons in light D. The basis of the theory of relativity Question 40: Einstein was a citizen of all of the following countries EXCEPT ___. A. Belgium.B. Germany.C. The United States D. Switzerland. Question 41: It is clear from the tone of the passage that the author feels ___. A. Einstein's work in physics was somewhat tarnished by his conservative political views B.

Even before the turn of the century, movies began to develop in two major directions: the realistic and the formalistic. Realism and formalism are merely general, rather than absolute, terms. When used to suggest a tendency toward either polarity, such labels can be helpful, but in the end they are still just labels. Few films are exclusively formalist in style, and fewer yet are completely realist. There is also an important difference between realism and reality, although this distinction is often forgotten. Realism is a particular style, whereas physical reality is the source of all the raw materials of film, both realistic and formalistic. Virtually all movie directors go to the photographable world for their subject matter, but what they do with this material - how they shape and manipulate it - determines their stylistic emphasis. Generally speaking, realistic films attempt to reproduce the surface of concrete reality with a minimum of distortion. In photographing objects and events, the filmmaker tries to suggest the copiousness of life itself. Both realist and formalist film directors must select (and hence Page 5
6. emphasize) certain details from the chaotic sprawl of reality. But the element of selectivity in realistic films is less obvious. Realists, in short, try to preserve the illusion that their film world is unmanipulated, an objective mirror of the actual world. Formalists, on the other hand, make no such pretense. They deliberately stylize and distort their raw materials so that only the very naive would mistake a manipulated image of an object or event for the real thing. We rarely notice the style in a realistic movie; the artist tends to be self-effacing. Some filmmakers are more concerned with what is being shown than how it is manipulated. The camera is used conservatively. It is essentially a recording mechanism that reproduces the surface of tangible objects with as little commentary as possible. A high premium is placed on simplicity, spontaneity, and directness. This is not to suggest that these movies lack artistry, however, for at its best the realistic cinema specializes in art that conceals art. Question 55: What does the passage mainly discuss? A. Acting stylesB. Film plots C. Styles of filmmakingD. Filmmaking 100 years ago Question 56: With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree? A.
