I. READING (2pts)
Read the text and then do the following tasks:
Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was a world-famous physicist.
Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany in 1879, but grew up in Munich. As a young boy, he did not do well in school. He liked to study math, science and philosophy at home by himself.
In 1895, Einstein’s family moved to Milan, Italy. He stayed behind to go to school, but soon left to join his family. Again, he studied at home on his own. But in 1896, on his second try, he became a student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. He studied math and physics and graduated in 1900.
In 1901, Einstein got a job in the patent office in Bern, Switzerland. When he wasn’t at work, he did research on physics. In 1903, he married Mileva Marie.
In 1905, the University of Zurich gave him a Ph.D. for an article he wrote on molecular physics. He wrote four other scientific papers that year. The most important one explained his theory of relativity.
Einstein became a professor of physics. He worked at universities in Prague, in Zurich, and, finally, in Berlin. But his wife did not like Berlin. She and their sons went back to Switzerland. Einstein and his wife divorced in 1919. Later that year he married again.
In 1915, Einstein finished his theory of relativity. In 1919, the scientists in the Royal Society of London said they agreed with his theory. This made Einstein very famous. He gave lectures on relativity around the world. In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize for physics. He worked on theories of physics for the rest of his life.
Einstein did not believe in war. When the Nazis gained power in Germany in 1933, he gave up his German citizenship and moved to the United States. Einstein was very upset when the United States used an atomic bomb to end the Second World War. After that, he spent much of his time trying to convince people that an atomic bomb should never be used again.
Einstein died in Princeton, New Jersey in 1955.

I. READING (2pts)
Read the text and then do the following tasks:
Thomas Alva Edison was probably the greatest inventor who ever lived, though at school he never did really well. In fact, he went to the bottom of his class and stayed at the bottom for three months. Shortly after, at the age of 12, he left school and never went back! His first job was selling newspapers on trains, and later, at the age of 16, he got a job working in a telegraph office. Not all of Edison’s inventions were successful. In fact, his first one was a failure. Many that followed, however, were spectacular successes and Edison became famous. Most people regard him as a genius.
Edison worked hard all his life, often working all night in his laboratory, and would not come home for days at a time. When asked what makes a genius he said, "Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration." Edison married his first wife, Mary Stilwell, when he was 24. She was only 16 at the time. The story goes that he tapped out his proposal to her in Morse code on a gas-pipe: "Will you marry me?" "I will"came the reply, also in Morse code.
Mary died when Edison was 37 years old and two years later he married his second wife, Mina Miller. Although most of the inventions which made Edison famous were made in the first half of his life, Edison continued to work and invent till he was over 70, often working 16 hours a day! During his long and productive life Edison made 1,300 inventions. Edison died on October 18, 1931, at the age of 84. America and the world mourned his passing.

1. How old was Edison when he left school?

2. What was his first job?

4. How many inventions did Edison make in his life?
