Hawking has left much for Chinese to think about.British physicist Stephen Hawking, possibly the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein, gave lectures in Zhejiang and Beijing in August.
An illness left him unable to move any part of his body except for three fingers. But his continuing efforts in the field of science have made many young people take him as their idol(偶像).His books, such as A Brief History of Time, become bestsellers in Chinese bookstores. “Hawking helps people expand their horizons(视野) and become interested in science,” said Pan Yunhe, president of Zhejiang University.Indeed, experts don't think it likely that Hawking's lectures and profound (深奥的) ideas will be easily understood by the average(通常的) person. But he has certainly sowed the seeds of science among many young people. And the “Hawking fever” caused by his visit has made people ask: How can China produce more top scientists like Hawking
“Nurturing (培养) top scientists will take as much work to change society as to educate the scientists themselves,” said Zhang Fan. Zhang has studied in the UK since 1999 and will be a sophomore (大二学生) at Trinity College in October, 2002. In Britain, Zhang said, teachers inspire students to have a general understanding of the subjects they are interested in. And they encourage students to develop new ideas, which helps them to nurture their creativity.
In China, the Ministry of Education has encouraged schools to provide quality education to develop students potential (潜力).
“I hope teachers will pay more attention to helping us use our imaginations and solve problems on our own, said Lu Jie, a Junior Three student in Sanfan Middle School in Beijing.
41. What has made young people take Hawking as their idol

B. we have to do a lot of work to educate the scientists themselves.
C. in order to nurture more top scientists, students should learn all subjects.

作文
Television presents a very vivid world to us. On television, we can watch exciting
Olympic football matches. We can travel to New York to have sightseeing in London. We
can also “go” to a concert with a cup of tea in our hand. From TV, we can learn many things
happening in the world without having to go outside our houses.
Television also plays an educational role in our daily life. By providing various
educational programs for different viewers.
However, television can also be harmful. It hurts our eyes. Watching TV too much
influences our sleep and work and cuts down children’s study time.
