48、le to accept death until it is obviously inevitableCALBERT Einstein had the idea. It stayed true for over a century. It is one of the cornerstonesof physics. Nothing travels faster than light.However, Einsteins special relativity theory has almost been proven wrong. In September,scientists discovere
49、d that a kind of neutrino （ 中微子） could travel faster than light. The result wasgreeted with some doubt when it was released because anyone who has ever doubted specialrelativity theory before has been proven wrong. The debate has been going on for the past twomonths. But so far, the result still hol
50、ds.In the original experiment, physicists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research（ CERN） sent a beam of tiny subatomic particles called neutrinos from their lab near Geneva to adetector 730 kilometers away in Italy. The neutrinos got there 60 nanoseconds （ 纳秒， 十亿分之一秒） sooner than the light
51、.That tiny amount of time may completely change our understanding of the laws of naturebecause modem physics has been based on Einsteins special relativity theory since he first cameup with it in 1905. The theory states that time slows down for an object traveling at the speed oflight, and that spac
52、e shrinks. If proven to be true, the new finding may lead to a revolutionarychange, not only in the basic principles of physics but also in our concept of space and time.Theoretically people would be able to travel back in time.Doubtful physicists questioned the carefulness of CERNs time measuring a
53、nd analysis.CERN therefore did the experiment again with more accurate measurements in October. The newresult was released on November 17 and once again, the neutrinos beat a light beam sent to theGran Sasso laboratory in Italy by 60 nanoseconds.Christos Touramanis, who heads a neutrino research tea
54、m at Britains Liverpool University,agreed that the new test had ruled out some possible sources of errors, but said that “a number ofother possible effects still needed to be checked. Ultimately, full independent confirmation willbe required before accepting this result as accurate,“ he told Reuters
55、.64. The scientists at CERN drew the conclusion t hat .A. Einsteins special relativity theory was completely wrongB. our understanding of the laws of nature should be changedC. their experiments backed up the theories of modern physicsD. there may be a kind of particle which can travel faster than t

It will help scientists to find a new detector.D. It will completely change peoples understanding of the
