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 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: 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. He wrote a book about universe for the average person. In fact, I remember seeing it on your bookshelves.
M: Do you mean A Brief History of Time?
W: Yes, it was a real best-seller, mostly to people who put it on their bookshelves and didn’t read it. He 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 managed to lead a fairly normal life.
M: He was very unlucky, wasn’t he?
W: Well, in a way. But he considered himself lucky. You know, despite his disability, he was regarded as one of the greatest minds of our time.
12. What did Hawking do after realizing his serious disease?
13. What does the woman think of A Brief History of Time?
14. What can we learn about Hawking’s life?
15. Why did Hawking consider himself lucky?
