❏ For question 1\(-\)6, read the three texts below and decide which answer (A, B, C, or, D) best fits each gap.

Stop anyone in the street and ask them to name a scientist, and the chances are they’ll think of Albert Einstein. His face is used to advertise products with intellectual (1) .... from computers to encyclopedias. Most people know little of what Einstein did, except that he developed some mysterious theories under the heading ‘relativity’, which are famous for being incomprehensible, and for coming up with bizarre predictions that (2) .... counter to everyday experience. Einstein was part of a gigantic (3) .... forward in scientific thinking, an intellectual revolution that (4) .... the birth of twentieth-century science. Physicists and mathematicians were trying to create a new, more rational description of the universe by studying relationships between matter and the forces of nature. Einstein (5) .... his profound and far-reaching contributions simply by looking again at the nature of the fundamentals: time, space, matter, and energy. Previous descriptions had depended on Isaac Newton’s view of a universe in which stars and planets moved in an absolute framework of space and time. Einstein (6) .... this notion, saying that time and space were not absolute but relative.
