阅读理解Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, and his achievement was even greater than a few other great scientists have achieved. An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may he some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on—but even ordinary man now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.
By 1914 young Einstein had been world-famous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by World War I.
Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.
In the year following World War I honors were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well known for his humble manner. He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived.
In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany till the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.

解析：
| 1．D爱因斯坦相对论的发现对科学和历史产生了巨大影响，同时，也使人们的思想产生了巨大的变化。
2．D此题是推测题。正是由于爱因斯坦的理论，人们对宇宙的看法同以前相比产生了巨大的变化。 3．C由于战争的影响，他无法开展工作。从文章中得知，直到1918年战争结束他才返回工作岗位。 4．B根据文章内容，爱因斯坦在1914年由于他的杰出贡献而闻名于世，而在1921年获得诺贝尔奖。故选B。 5．A文章最后一段已证明，在希特勒上台之前，德国人对科学是很尊重的。B项内容文章并没有谈到，而C、D项内容与文章内容相悖。
