Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, greater than most other men have achieved. An American university president once said that Einstein had helped us have a new view of the universe. It may be some time before ordinary people fully understand the identity(一致) of time and space and so on — but even ordinary people understand now that the universe is something larger than it had been ever thought before. By 1914 the young Einstein had been famous in the world. At that time, he accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. There he had few duties, little teaching and a great number of chances for study, but soon his peace and quiet life were broken by World War I.

Einstein hated wars and killings. World War I changed his ordinary life, and he would sit unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to go on with his research.

In the years following World War I, more and more people knew and respected him. He became head of the Faiser Whilhem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism(纳粹) when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.

Edward Wilson is America’s, if not the world’s, leading naturalist. In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world’s natural resources. How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多样性)of our earth.
Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment protection, Henry David Thoreau. He compares today’s Walden Pond with that of Thoreau’s day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clear: man has done great damage to his home over the years. Can the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?
Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.
At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may well read and act on the ideas in this book.
【小题1】We learn form the text that Wilson cares most about ______.

A.the environment for plantsB.the biodiversity of our earth
C.the wastes of natural resourcesD.the importance of human values
【小题2】How many species are most important to our present food supply?
A.Twenty.B.Eighty. C.One hundred.D.Ten thousand.
【小题3】Wilson suggests that one way to keep biodiversity is to _______.
A.learn how to farm scientifically B.build homes for some dying species
C.make it clear what to eatD.use more species for food
【小题4】We can infer that the text is _______.
A.a description of natural resourcesB.a research report
C.a book review D.an introduction to a scientist
