People around the world were shocked by the death of Stephen Hawking this year. They respect (尊敬) the British scientist not only because of his achievements in physics but also his great spirit.

    Hawking was born in England on January 8th, 1942. When he was a child, he was interested in science. In 1959, he entered Oxford University

(牛津大学) to study natural science. However, he got a very serious illness in 1963. He couldn't move or speak. He had to sit in a wheelchair (轮椅)and he could only communicate with others by computer.

    In the face of these difficulties,Hawking didn’t give up. He went on to study at Cambridge University(剑桥大学) and did research on space and time. He wrote many great books. The most famous one is A Brief History Of Time(《时间简史》).

    Hawking was invited to China to give speeches several times. His self﹣confidence( 自信)and humorous words impressed(留下印象) us deeply.

    Hawking's unusual life encourages many people. Let's not worry about our problems. Let's face the challenges instead. As he once said, "Life is not fair, you just have to do the best you can in your situation."
