It all seems like yesterday. Did you know that the newspapers (to say) the Gigantic was unsinkable? The King himself (to launch) the ship, and we were all so proud of her. Everyone said she was the greatest ship that People ever (to build), anywhere or anytime. And then I remember the voyage itself, and that terrible night. All evening the passengers (to enjoy) themselves. Some of them (to drink) champagne and others (to dance). And then came the horrifying crash.
Actually, it was just bad luck that we hit the iceberg. Another ship the Luxor, (to pass) us only two hours earlier. Later I heard that it (to try) to warn us of the danger ahead, but its radio (to break down). In fact, when we struck the iceberg we already (to sail) among small icebergs for half an hour and we already (to reduce) speed. All the same, it seemed to rush at us out of the darkness. The look-out, who (to see) it first, tried to warn the captain, but by then it was too late.
Albert Einstein was an outstanding German-born theoretical physicist and one of the fathers of modern physics. He received a Nobel Prize in Physics and was an Honorary Doctor of about 20 leading universities in the world. Einstein wrote more than 300 scientific papers and 150 books on the history and essence of science. He was born on March 14th, 1879, in Ulm, in the family of a salesman. His father and his uncle were the founders of one electrical equipment company. His mother was a housewife. When he was still a toddler, his family moved to Munchen where Albert attended a Catholic elementary school. Later, he transferred to Gymnasium, which now has his name. When he turned 14, he moved to Switzerland, where he studied at the Zurich Polytechnic School. Starting from 1909, he taught at this educational institution and became a Professor.
At the age of 34, he was already the director of the Institute of Physics and a Professor of the University of Berlin. In 1933 he was forced to leave Germany by the Nazis. He moved to the USA then and lectured there at Princeton until his death. His three important scientific works on the theory of relativity, the Brownian motion and quantum theory were published already in 1905. The next year, he created the formula about the relation between mass and energy. In 1916, he predicted the phenomenon of induced radiation of atoms. A year later he completed the general theory of relativity. His theory for the first time in science showed the link between the space-time geometry and distribution of mass in the universe. This theory was based on Newton’s gravitational law. Although Einstein’s theories seemed too revolutionary for that time, he soon received a number of confirmations.
In 1920s and 1930s the anti-Semitism was gradually gaining popularity in Germany. His theory of relativity became a subject of criticism. When the scientific work became impossible in his native country, he moved to the USA. There, he instantly received a professorship at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study. Unified field theory became the subject of his scientific research for the last twenty years of his life. He tried to bring the theory of gravitation and electromagnetic field together. During the Second World War, he heard of the German uranium project and wrote an open letter to the US President Franklin warning about the possible consequences of the Nazi’s creation of atomic bomb. Shortly before his death, Einstein signed a petition addressed to the governments of all countries, warning them about the dangers of hydrogen bomb and nuclear weapons.
An outstanding and brilliant physicist died on April 18th, 1955. During his life he had a great number of honorary awards and world recognition. He had once received an offer to become the president of Israel, which he politely refused. In 1999, “The Times” magazine named him the man of the century. Einstein was married twice. He met his first wife when he was studying in Zurich. The couple had two sons. In 1919, he got a divorce and married his widowed cousin Elsa, who died in 1936. In his free time he liked playing the violin and was rather good at it. Another cherished hobby of the scientist was sailing.(Про Альберта Эйнштейна)
This story happened in the year that Jim's brother broke his arm, and it all started with the Scarecrow Radley. These Redley, who lived next door to the Finch family were inhospitable. Senior members of the family rarely left the house, and their son, generally has not been seen for a long time. When the guy got in touch with a bad company, his father locked him in the house. It Radley Jr. and called the Scarecrow. He was feared all the children in the city, and they went running home side. This man, there were many legends and Radley house was considered cursed.
The Legend of the Scarecrow charmed new neighbor Scout. A boy named Dill came to the aunt for the summer holidays, and made friends with Finch. All summer new friends tried to lure the Scarecrow from the house, but their attempts were unsuccessful.
Autumn Scout went to school. Now she comes every day to walk past the "accursed house." Near the house grew tall virgin oaks. One Scout found in the hollow of one of the oaks bag of chewing gum, and a little later - a box with two "lucky" penny. From these gifts, the children only guessed.
The following summer Dill came again, and the children went back to their favorite pastime - entice the Scarecrow from the house. This continued until Atticus did not forbid children to pester their neighbors and play scenes from their lives. Despite the ban, the children still managed to get stuck in history. Before leaving, Dill pulled back to the Scarecrow's house. He tried to get close to him in the dark and look out the window. Of course, he was not alone. Company children caught Radley senior. He mistook them for thieves and began firing a gun. Fleeing, Jim stuck under the fence of barbed wire and returned home without pants. When he came to the fence of his clothes, he found neatly folded pants and awkwardly mended.
Autumn children again found in the hollow of gifts, while Mr. Radley did not smeared cement cache. The winter that year stood out quite cold. Houses had to drown, and one night on fire the house next door to Finch. Atticus inrush children on the street. While Glazasttik staring at the fire, someone carefully hid her blanket. Children have guessed that it was the Scarecrow.
Shortly after the fire Atticus instructed to defend the black guy, white girl allegedly raped. Throw this thing Atticus could not, because he believed in the innocence of his client. Citizens and residents of the district did not like blacks and condemned Atticus. This was reflected on the children. They could not hear the insult of their father, and came home with bruises.
