Listen to the passage.
For questions 26~30, complete the notes using no more than three words for each blank.
Stephen Hawking was one of the world’s most acclaimed cosmologists, a medical miracle, and probably the galaxy’s most unlikely superstar celebrity. After being diagnosed with a rare form of motor neuron disease in 1963 at the age of 22, he was given just a few years to live. Yet in the face of such adversity Professor Hawking proved the doctors wrong by celebrating his 70th birthday nearly half a century later as one of the most brilliant and famous scientists of the modern age. Despite being wheelchair-bound, almost completely paralysed and unable to speak except through his trademark voice synthesizer, he wrote a plethora of scientific papers that earned him comparisons with such totemic figures as Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton. In the 1980s, Professor Hawking and Professor Jim Hartle, from the University of California at Santa Barbara, proposed a model of the universe which had no boundaries in space or time. The concept was described in his popular science book A Brief History of Time, published in 1988, which sold millions of copies worldwide.

选项

答案 comparisons

解析 根据原文可知,霍金写了大量的科学论文,使他得以与阿尔伯特-爱因斯坦和艾萨克-牛顿爵士等偶像人物相比较。因此,填入comparisons。
