A

Einstein is a world-famous scientist. In 1899, he studied at a famous university in Zurich (苏黎世). His teacher was Professor Minkevsky.

Once Einstein asked Minkevsky, “How can a person, like me, leave his clear footprints on the road of science and make a great contribution” Minkevsky said that it was a “complicated”problem and he had to give him an answer later.

Three days later, Minkevsky told Einstein that the answer was coming! But he didn’t say anything. They walked toward a building site. He asked Einstein to set foot on a concrete (混凝土) road that the workers had just finished.

All the workers shouted at him. Einstein was very confused. “Sir, are you leading me the wrong way” he asked.
