In 1915 Einstein made a trip to Gottingen to give some lectures at the invitation of the mathematical physicist David Hilbert. He was particularly eager—too eager, it would turn out—to explain all the intricacies of relativity to him. The visit was a【C1】________ and he said to a friend excitedly "I was able to【C2】________Hilbert of the general theory of relativity."
Amid all of Einstein’s personal turmoil (焦躁) at the time, a new scientific anxiety was about to emerge. He was struggling to find the right equations that would describe his new concept of gravity, ones that would define how objects move through space and how space is curved by objects. By the end of the summer, he realized the mathematical approach he had been【C3】________for almost three years was flawed. And now there was a【C4】________pressure. Einstein discovered to his【C5】________that Hilbert had taken what he had learned from Einstein’s【C6】________and was racing to come up with the correct equations first.
It was an enormously complex task. Although Einstein was the better physicist, Hilbert was the better mathematician. So in October 1915 Einstein【C7】________himself into a month-long-frantic endeavor in which he returned to an earlier mathematical strategy and wrestled with equations, proofs, corrections and updates that he rushed to give as lectures to Berlin’s Prussian Academy of Sciences on four【C8】________Thursdays.
His first lecture was delivered on Nov. 4, 1915, and it explained his new approach, though he admitted he did not yet have the precise mathematical formulation of it. Einstein also took time off from【C9】________revising his equations to engage in an awkward fandango (胡闹) with his competitor Hilbert. Worried about being scooped (抢先) , he sent Hilbert a copy of his Nov.4 lecture. "I am【C10】________to know whether you will take kindly to this new solution," Einstein noted with a touch of defensiveness.
A)ridiculously E)trauma I) pursuing M)competitive
B) compatible F) lectures J) convince N) successive
C) thrusting G) furiously K) curious O) threw
D) triumph H) persuade L) horror [br] 【C1】
