He was strange because he hated haircuts and new clothes. He believed in peace. All his life, he hated war. However, his most famous idea, E = mc, helped create the worlds most dangerous weapon (武器). Many people think he was the smartest person in the world. But Einstein said that he thought like a child with many questions and unusual ideas.What did he like?Einstein liked learning sailing(帆船运动). He sailed in small boats all his life. Heonce joked, “Sailing is the sport that takes the least energy!”When Einstein was a child, his mother made him take violin lessons. At first, he didnt like the violin. But then he learned to love music and became a good violinist.Later, he said, “Love is the best teacher.”Why is the sky blue?In 1910, Einstein asked a question which many children often ask, “Why is the sky blue?” After his careful research, he answered the question like this: “Its because light is made up of many colors including blue. When light travels to Earth, gas particles(气体微粒) spread the blue light all over the sky.” His answer is true in physics.26 .

Is it because the bed is uncomfortable? Maybe, but perhaps there can be other reasons.According to a new study published in Current Biology, an important reason is what the scientists call “first night effect”. They believe that one side of the brain acts as a “night watch” to warn us about potential（潜在的） dangers. It forces us to stay awake on the first night in a new environment.For the study, 35 young volunteers were asked to sleep in a sleep lab for several days. Meanwhile, researchers watched their brain activities.According to the researchers, on their first night, the left brains were more active than the right brains and people had a hard time sleeping. However, left-brain activity decreased as days went by, falling even to the point of complete quietness. So, the volunteers got an increasingly better sleep experience.The findings suggest that the different rhythms（节奏） of the sides of the brain influence our sleep. When the two sides work differently, the balance between them is broken. And the brain cant relax, just as it is in the daytime.US professor Jerome Siegel told Smithsonian magazine, “If something unusual happensif a door opens or you hear a key in a lockyou can be alert（警惕的）, even though the sound is quite low.” It works to protect us in a dangerous environment.More surprisingly, this situation is similar to the way some animals sleep. Whales, dolphins, and many birds can sleep with half of their brain while the other half stays awake, with its one eye staying open.If you have ever had what you think is “first night effect”, researchers suggest that you bring your own pillow（枕头） or sleep in a room similar to your bedroom next time you sleep away from home.31 .

The passage might be taken from a part of a_ .Atravel posterBnews reportCscience magazineDschool noticeAmericans were shocked to discover that the national bird was in danger of disappearing from the skies forever. Studies in 1970 showed only about 1,000, or fewer, bald eagles(秃鹰) in the country.The major cause of the problem was people. The spread of civilization(文明) destroyed many of the eagles feeding and nesting areas. And the eagles were being affected by D-D-T and other insect poisons. The poisons were in the animals the eagles ate. They reduced the eagles ability(能力) to use calcium(钙). This made the outside of the eagles eggs very thin. Often, the eggs broke before baby birds were developed.In 1972, the U. S. government banned(禁止) D-D-T. People also became interested in protecting places where eagles live. And stronger efforts were made to carry out laws protecting the birds. Scientists began a program that placed baby bald eagles which were born under human care, into nests of wild bald eagles. Often, the wild birds accepted the babies.These efforts appear to have been successful in saving the American bald eagles. Today the number of the bald eagles has increased to more than 11, 000.35 .

So how did they get the things they wanted? Well, there is a long and interesting story.At first they would exchange things they had for something they need. For example, if a shoemaker needed some bread, he would give a baker shoes and the baker would give him bread. This was called “bartering(以物易物)”.Bartering worked well for a while. But after the baker didnt need so many shoes, the shoemaker still needed more bread. What could they do? The solution （解决办法） to this problem was money.Money is an agreement among people. There were many earlier forms of money, such as cattle, salt, grain and shells. But it was not easy to move them to faraway places or store them. So metal money began to take the place of these things. Metal money was used in China as early as 1,000 BC.About three hundred years ago, paper money was used widely. Paper money is much cheaper to make than metal money. It is also easier to carry. Now paper money is used by most countries.39 .
