单选题
Einstein(爱因斯坦) was born in 1879 in Germany. As a child, he was slow to talk. But when he was fourteen years old, he became clever. He taught himself math from textbooks. He studied hard because he wanted to be a physicist.
In 1901, Einstein began teaching. In 1902 he went on with his study at the University of Zurich. Several years later, he put forward(提出) his famous Theory of Relativity(相对论).
To most people the Theory of Relativity is hard to explain. But once Einstein explained it very well to a group of young students. He said, "When you sit with a good girl for two hours, you think it is only a minute. But when you sit on a hot fire for a minute, you think it's two hours. That is relativity. "
Later Einstein went to America and never left there. In 1955, Einstein's life ended at the age of seventy-six.
