愛因斯坦是我們耳熟能詳?shù)目茖W家。而在關于他的故事中,我們可能聽過他上學時數(shù)學成績不及格這件事,他數(shù)學曾考了6分似乎就是佐證。但事實是什么呢?讓我們一起閱讀下文解開疑惑吧!
Albert Einsteinis was lhailed as the greatest scientist of the modern times.
His surname is today 2synonymous of lQ. The general theory of relativity-his greatest achievement-has shaped the modern world's understanding of the 3)universe.
Yet many keep asking the same question over and over again: Was Albert Einstein really poor in Mathematics? Many who are themselves poor in mathematics cite him as an example of how the subject of numbers has got nothing to do with intellect or greatness.
It is something which has 4intrigued many over the years. Even though historians have in the past answered that the question has no merit, they 5)nevertheless refuse to die-from social media feeds, especially.
So the official Twitter handle of the Nobel Prize posted a special photograph along with a 6portrait of a young Einstein.
The photograph shows the German-born genius' report card from the Argovian cantonal school in Aarau, Switzerland, which he 7)attended from 1895 to 1896.
The report card, dated 3 0ctober 1896 shows the grades 8)obtained by Einstein in various subjects related to mathematics studied at the time.
According to the report card, Einstein 9)scored 6 in Algebra, Geometry, Descriptive Geometry and Physics. He also scored 5 in Chemistry. In fact, he scored 6 in History as well.
“In the scoring, six =highest, 1 =lowest grade. The photo was taken the very same day he received his grades in 1896," wrote the Nobel Prize Committee.
愛因斯坦被譽為現(xiàn)代最偉大的科學家。
他的姓氏在今天是智商的代名詞。他最偉大的成就一廣義相對論,塑造了現(xiàn)代世界對宇宙的理解。
然而很多人一直在反復問同一個問題愛因斯坦的數(shù)學真的很差嗎?許多本身數(shù)學很差的人都把他當作一個例子,來說明數(shù)學與智力或偉大無關。
多年來,這是令許多人感興趣的事情。即使歷史學家過去已經(jīng)回答說這個問題沒有任何根據(jù),但他們還是不死心一尤其是在社交媒體上。
于是,諾貝爾獎的官方推特賬號發(fā)布了一張?zhí)貏e的照片,以及一張年輕的愛因斯坦的肖像。
照片上顯示的是這位出生于德國的天才在瑞士阿勞的阿爾高州立學校的成績單,他于1895年至1896年在這所學校就讀。
這張1896年10月3日的成績單顯示了愛因斯坦在當時所學的與數(shù)學有關的各科成績。
根據(jù)成績單,愛因斯坦在代數(shù)、幾何學、畫法幾何學和物理學中取得了6分。他的化學也得了5分。事實上,他的歷史也得了6分。
“在評分中,6分等于最高分,1分等于最低分。這張照片正是他在1896年拿到成績的當天拍攝的。”諾貝爾獎委員會推文中如此寫道。
