冲突”与“主题”
STEPHEN HAWKING一文介绍了霍金的生平，属于人物特写类记叙文。这类语篇具备记叙文的常见要素，如人物、情节、冲突和主题。这篇课文对冲突的描写比较具体，同时对主题意义的挖掘也很深入。
所谓“冲突”，是指主要人物必须要解决或克服的在情节发展过程中所出现的主要问题或障碍。冲突的表现形式多种多样，常见的有四种：人与人之间的冲突、人与自然的冲突、人与社会的冲突和人物本身的冲突。本单元课文中所描述的冲突属于人物本身的冲突，确切地讲，是主要人物霍金如何克服自身身体残疾。语篇第二段和第三段着重描写了这一冲突，具体表现为：he had a rare … ALS, his illness got worse, he lost his speech, he lost the use of his hands。 此外，本文对主题意义的挖掘也值得深思。语篇通过Although Hawking’s physical abilities declined over decades, he never ceased his studies and he developed a number of new ideas about black holes，In spite of his disease, Hawking didn’t consider himself an unlucky man, he believed this was because of the help he received from his family and a large number of people and organisations等语句为我们描写出一个不畏疾病、努力钻研，同时又积极乐观、充满感恩之心的科学家形象。
