1.Sickened by what he saw as the waste of human lives during the First World War, he became involved in antiwar demonstrations.

[翻译]因为在第一次世界大战中看到很多人死于战争而感到难受，爱因斯坦参加了反战游行。

[分析]本句中前面半句是分词在句中做状语的用法，动词sicken使…恶心；与句子主语he之间构成了被动关系，所以使用过去分词。实际上这里的sickened已经转换成形容词，修饰主语he的情况。

55. [答案]A

[试题解析]篇章结构题。本文第一段最后一句Einstein's life was, in fact, "divided between politics and equations(方程式).说明爱因斯坦在政治上和学术上是分开的。在2,3,4段里分别讲述了他的政治以及反战的主张。在最后一段进行了一个总结，和第一段最后一句形成呼应。故A项正确。

六．重庆市高三考前冲刺测试卷）E

　　 Einstein's connection with the politics of the nuclear bomb is well known: He signed the letter to President Franklin Roosevelt that persuaded the United States to take the idea seriously, and he engaged in postwar efforts to prevent nuclear war. But these were not just the isolated actions of a scientist dragged into the world of politics. Einstein's life was, in fact, "divided between politics and equations(方程式)."

　　 Sickened by what he saw as the waste of human lives during the First World War, he became involved in antiwar demonstrations. His support of civil disobedience did little to endear him to his colleagues. Then, following the war, he directed his efforts toward reconciliation(调停) and improving international relations. And soon his politics were making it difficult for him to visit the United States, even to give lectures.

　　 Einstein's second great cause was Zionism(犹太复国主义). Although he was Jewish, Einstein rejected the idea of God. However, a growing awareness of anti-Semitism(反犹太主义), both before and during the War, led him gradually to identify with the Jewish community, and later to become an outspoken supporter of Zionism.

　　 His theories came under attack. One man was accused of motivating others to murder Einstein and fined a mere six dollars. When a book was published entitled 100 Authors Against Einstein, he retorted, "If I were wrong, then one would have been enough!" When Hitler came to power, Einstein then in America declared he would not return to Germany. While Nazi attacked his house and confiscated his bank account, a Berlin newspaper displayed the headline "Good News from Einstein--He's Not Coming Back."

　　 Fearing that German scientists would build a nuclear bomb, Einstein proposed that the United States should develop its own. But he was publicly warning of the dangers of nuclear war and proposing international control of nuclear weaponry. Throughout his life, Einstein's efforts toward peace probably achieved little and won him few friends. His support of the Zionist cause, however, was recognized in 1952, when he was offered the presidency of Israel. He declined, saying he was too naive in politics. But perhaps his real reason was different:"　 Equations are more important to me, because politics is for the present, but an equation is something for eternity."

52. The reason why Einstein was against the war was that __

　　 A. he tried to get involved in politics　　　　　 B. the nuclear bomb could be built by German scientists

　　 C. many people died during the war in vain　　 D. President Franklin persuaded him to do so

70. [答案]B

[试题解析]主旨大意题。本文主要讲述的德国将要实行的“fetch friends”这一计划，让顺路的普通人来帮助投递邮件，以达到环保的目的。故B项正确。

[长难句解析]

It is hoped that the move, which will be tested in the coming months, might lessen traffic in inner cities and reduce CO2 emissions(排放).

[翻译]人们希望这个将在下个月被测试的运动也许能够减少城内的交通堵塞并减少二氧化碳的排放。

[分析]本句中有一个which引导的非限制性定语从句which will be tested in the coming months,修饰前面的先行词the move。同时本句中的it是一个形式主语，真正的主语是that所引导的主语从句。特别注意这里的that引导的是主语从句，是不能省略的。
