Stephen Hawking
Pair Work
Stephen Hawking was one of the most famous scientists in this century. He was born in 1942. He’s a world well-known on space and time. Stephen is researching some very big questions, such as: How did the universe begin How will it end
Stephen was a student at Oxford University. He studied math and science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became sick. He was so young, but the doctors said to his family, “He has only two more years to live.” As a matter of fact, the doctors were wrong---- he didn’t die. He can’t walk now but he uses a wheelchair(轮椅). He can’t feed himself and get in or out of bed himself. But he refused to give in to the condition. He talks with the help of a computer. After Oxford, Stephen went to Cambridge University. Three years later, in 1965, he became a doctor of philosophy（哲学）.
Reading Tasks
