Unlike many scientists who work with microscopes, telescopes or some kind of laboratory equipment to perform experiments in order to solve problems they are working on, or find the answers they are looking for, Albert Einstein was a different kind of scientist. He did not perform experiments to prove his theories. He devoted his entire genius to conceiving. (构想) and developing (推导) ideas, and then turning them into written mathematical formulas.
Some of Einstein's theories were so far ahead of their time that they could not be tested until years later when better scientific instruments and equipment had been invented. For instance, one theory pointed out the existence of a certain star that nobody had ever seen. Another predicted that an atom, then considered the smallest particle (粒子) in the universe, was actually composed of even smaller particles. Eventually both theories were proved to be true.
Albert Einstein gave the world many new mathematical formulas that helped explain the laws of the universe. No one in history has done so much as Einstein to help us understand such mysterious things as light, motion, gravity, space and time.

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】题干是“爱因斯坦的一些理论不能得到测试因为______。”由文章第二段“Some of Einstein's theories were so far ahead of their time that they could not be tested until years later when better scientific instruments and equipment had been invented．”可知，他的理论无法被测试因为所需的工具和设备不齐全。
