Talking about famous scientists there are plenty of people I remember. As one of the biggest names in science, German physicist Albert Einstein（1879-1955） has changed the way we see the world _______ his amazing discoveries.

This year, his theory of relativity（相对论） celebrated its 105th anniversary（纪念日）. Many scientists have tied to prove（证明） his theory _______ but they haven’t been able to. So what is so special about his theory? Well, before the theory of relativity, everyone believed another scientist called Isaac Newton（1643-1727）and his theory. Newton said both time and space are the same for everyone, everywhere.

Einstein proved this was not true. The _______ of his experiments showed that under different circumstances（环境） the flow（流动） of time can change. Time is able to move slower or faster _______ on these different kinds of conditions. An example is _______ one person is traveling at the speed of light and another person is standing still, the man moving at the speed of light will age slower than the _______ standing still. This is because the condition of moving at the speed of light is changing the man’s flow of time. This theory _______ changed the way people viewed time and space.

Einstein was well-known as a scientific genius（天才）. His understanding of science and the world was better than many others. But _______ his work, he had hobbies and a unique（独特的）personality. One of Einstein’s favorite hobbies was sailing（航海）, and he could often be _______ on a boat, even though he couldn’t swim. He also never wore socks. He said socks were ________ and made him feel uncomfortable when they got holes.

Great Part-Time Jobs in your free time

You may find it possible to have more free time. But how can you make use of it in a proper way. Finding a part-time job from which you can make some money and get some social experience may be a wonderful choice.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

It seems almost everyone has a friend who is a technical genius（天才）. Such people make money using their talent. If you are one of them, you could be responsible for technical support in your college or university and get your part-time job for a college student.

You are able to help your friends with programs install（安装）and you can market services on different sites and social media. Set your hours free and enjoy the process of earning money by doing your favorite thing.

TUTOR

A lot of students hire a tutor to help them in high school or college. If you are good at some subjects, why not work as a peer tutor? It’s a win-win thing because you help your friends and make money at the same time. If you know foreign languages, you can make more money. All you need to do is to make an advertisement of your services.

OFFICE WORKER

Nowadays many companies cooperate with students, giving them part-time jobs. Some of the major job duties of an office worker are answering calls and doing some paper work. If you are interested in doing this job, contact the representatives（代表）of different companies to find out if they’re hiring anyone at present.

Many of us eat instant noodles once in a while, but have you ever noticed the shape of that? Why is it curved（弯曲）?

Fan Zhihong, a professor on food nutrition（营养）studies at China Agricultural University, said that the shape of noodles has little to do with its nutrition. She believes that it is mainly for the convenience of transportation that instant noodles are made curved.

Most instant noodles are made by the processes of steaming and oil frying, which makes them quite fragile（脆弱）. Curved shapes could help them get the anti-pressure（抗压）ability.

Curvedness saves money. The same cup can hold more curved noodles than straight ones, while the same amount of curved noodles take up less space than straight ones.

Curved noodles have bigger spaces from each other, which makes them have a better bath in hot water and promises better taste.

Whether you use a fork or chopsticks, the curly shape is much more convenient for you to eat.

In an inspiring（鼓舞人心的）follow-up to the Titanic story, Reader's Digest national affairs editor David tells of a family treasure that survived the fatal tragedy（灾难性的悲剧）on April 15, 1912.

My great uncle Denis boarded the Titanic as a third-class passenger at Queenstown, Ireland. He was 21, a jockey from County Cork who was offered a job riding horses for an American family. His older brother Michael, my grandfather, who had made his own trip across the Atlantic a few years earlier, was waiting for him in New York. In one version（版本）of the story- different family members recall hearing different details over the years-Michael sent Denis a proper overcoat so he wouldn’t look too poor when he came through Ellis Island. That may or may not be true. What we know for sure is that Denis didn’t make it,        .

As the ship was sinking（下沉）, Denis, who is sometimes listed as Thomas in Titanic passenger records, wrote a note to Michael. He gave the note and his overcoat to a woman in a lifeboat and asked her to see that his brother got them. She did. A photo of my grandfather wearing what we have always called “the Titanic coat” holds a special place in the family archives（档案室）. In the picture, he looks small but well-dressed with several servants around him.

No one knows what the note said —that part of the story got lost over the past hundred years—and I often wonder what few words Denis chose that night. I also wonder what he was thinking later, as he stood on that deck（甲板）with the coat and faced the end of his too short life in that cold ocean calmly and bravely, under those cold stars.

Chinese TV series Nirvana. in Fire（琅琊榜）has successfully attracted（吸引）Latin American people’s interest in Chinese cultural products. The drama was the first Chinese TV series to be aired in Argentina in early 2018.

Galarza is busy working at Bigtech Corporation, trying to find new content（内容）for online content service platform “Mi Ott”, which now offers services in Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico starting from this month.

The idea is to attract new audiences（观众）with “great content”, and “a better choice is to include Chinese drama and animation series”, Galarza told Xinhua during the MIP Cancun-Latin American TV Buyers Summit held in the Mexican city of Cancun recently.

The event is the most efficient（有效率的）platform to develop production partnerships and trade content for the fast-growing Latin American TV market.

A Chinese delegation（代表）, taking part in the event for the fourth continuous year, attracted much attention for offering products like drama, documentary, and animation.

Galarza said she had communicated with several private and public Chinese companies during the event. The Chinese companies had plenty of programs, including some hit drama series. “With great content, costurnes, and scenery,” she said. “I think that it’s very important to be able to start having programs that are carefully designed and produced. China is a country that shares its culture and also has good product,” she added.

A sound production company in Buenos Aires, Argentina said they also plan to add a Chinese movie to the list, which is also educational as it shows important values such as the care of teenagers’ growth and being against the bullying. “With technology and subtitles, the language would not be a problem for these programs,” she added. “If this Chinese series comes to Latin America, think it will have a big influence,” she said. Galarza was happy that she was able to make her first in-person connection with Chinese companies at the event.

As a girl growing up in Oakland, Harris was attracted to nature in college, she accepted a green lifestyle, avoiding chemicals（化学物质） in her food and beauty products lo make her carbon footprint（碳足迹） less.

Later, teaching in primary schools in poor neighborhoods, she was shocked for her students not having the ideas of protecting the environment. But she also understood. “For many communities of color, these problems often seem less important because they are dealing with daily lives,” she says.

Harris decided to teach children the advantages of sustainable（可持续的） living and in 2007 set up the grassroots group Grind for the Green（G4G）, an organization that educates kids about green subjects as well as providing training in entry-level green jobs. She used hip-hop music to draw more people’s attention. “We created it to make a deeper connection with the kids” she explains.

One early project was a free solar-powered（太阳能的） hip-hop concert- the first of its kind—-in San Francisco. Solar panels（太阳能板） on a mobile bus produced all the electricity, and the kids set up road stands（货摊） offering green food and drinks made in bicycle-powered blenders. The event was successful, leading to other G4G concerts and attracting concert organizers and producers who wanted to work with G4G. “We’ve been able to get close to a special field that other environmental groups couldn’t,” Harris says. “Our events are produced by young people who carry out the tasks faster and better” she adds.

No one can say that poor people or people of color don't care about the earth. From the story of Harris, we’ve seen communities become connected with these green subjects once they’ve been educated and learn a way to do something about it.

Ten-year-old Riley and her mother, Lynn, were in front of the family computer, checking out models and prices of bikes. “Let’s pick one out for Dad’s birthday,” Lynn suggested to her daughter.

As Riley went through the home page of the Bike Rack, a shop in their town, a video link for Project Mobility caught her eye. She clicked on it out of curiosity（好奇）. The clip（片段）told how Bike Rack’s co-owner Jack had created an organization to provide specially engineered bicycles to people with disabilities. It showed the happy faces of those who were now riding them—accident victims, injured soldiers, and children with disabilities, including Jack's own son, who had been born with cerebral palsy（脑瘫）.

“I’m going to buy a bike for one of those kids,” Riley told her mother. Two days later, she showed her mother a letter she had written asking for donations（捐赠）. Riley’s mother was moved by her daughter’s effort, but doubts quickly came out. The cost of just one of those special bikes could be as high as $4000. Riley could never raise the money. However, her letter went out to 75 relatives and friends. Within three days, checks and cash began arriving. Then word about Riley’s action go around, and as Christmas got closer, she got more and more donations. The teen finally raised more than $12000 enough to pay for three bikes.

Last Christmas Eve, Riley pulled on a Santa hat and gave the bicycles to three of the lucky kids: Ava a 13-year-old girl with cerebral palsy; Jenny, a 15-year-old girl with cerebral palsy; and Rose, a 4-year-old girl with a genetic disorder. “This is the best Christmas I ever had,” said Riley.

She and Ava have ridden together. “When I ride, I like to go fast, get sweaty, and feel the soft wind,” Riley says. “And Ava feels the same. She tries with her arms, not her feet, but she really flies.”

Riley decides to keep her action going every holiday season. “I want kids to feel the wind in their faces,” she says.

A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a long weekend with our 3 and 4-year-old daughters.     54     we went back and forth, thinking about what to do next we really didn’t know our daughters’ ideas about the holiday. Then our girls jumped in and told us     55     what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum,” said Ariela and Eliana.

As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies, all flapping（拍打）their colorful wings. My girls were jumping up and down, and I knew we had made the right     56     to come to the museum. They were having so much fun.

I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious, and asked: “How long do butterflies live?” She said: “About ten days.” I felt so     57     at the answer. “Only ten days! So what can they do in ten days?” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me, and said: “They make the world a more beautiful place.” “Wow,” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you.”     58     we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have     59     to offer the world during our lifetime. When we focus our gifts（天赋）on looking after each other every day, we can     60    a difference.

Appreciate the influence you can have     61     your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world a little better for everyone.
