M: So, can you think of a person that you admire most?
W: Well, I think that it must be Steven Hawking.
M: Isn’t he the professor at Cambridge with motor neurone disease?
W: That’s right. He has spent most of his life fighting the disease. He found out that he’d got it when he was a student. He was at the age of only 21 then.
M: What did he do then?
W:(9)Well, he stopped wasting time. And he started applying himself to his studies. He knew that he risked dying young, but he became a leading cosmologist.
M: Oh, it seems that I kind of heard something about him.
W: Yes, you must have.(10)He wrote a book about universe for the average person. In fact, I remember seeing it on your book shelves.
M: Do you mean A Brief History of Time?
W: Yes,(10)it was a real bestseller, mostly to people who put it on their book shelves and didn’t read it.
M: Oh, how is he doing now?
W: Very well.(11)He’s succeeded in living far longer than anyone expected him to, and even doctors asserted that he would die in a few years.
M: But what kind of life could he have with such disease like that?
W: He’s managed to lead a fairly normal life. He has married twice and has three children and a grandchild now. I think he needs to use a computer for almost everything now, you know, speaking, writing, even eating.
M: He’s very unlucky, isn’t he?
W: Well, in a way.(12)But he considers himself lucky. You know, despite his disability, he is regarded as one of the greatest minds of our time.
