Stephen Hawking was born in England in 1942. He’s one of the most well - known scientists on space time in the world. Hawking was researching how the universe began and how it ends. He is called the King of the Universe.
When he studied Maths and Science at Oxford University, he became seriously ill, which made him unable to speak or breathe without the help of machines. Until the day he died, he couldn’t move or feed himself and he was helped to dress, eat and wash by a nurse. However, he had a wheelchair with a special computer, with which he could communicate with others.
In spite of all these difficulties, he refused to give up his hope of living and went on to study at Cambridge University after graduating from Oxford University. In 1965, he got a Doctor’s Degree of philosophy (哲学博士学位). Then he worked as a professor at Cambridge University. Because of his serious illness, it was difficult for him to draw diagrams or to write. So he started to think in pictures. With this new way of thinking, he is respected by people in the world. Then in 1988, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It has been sold more than 5.5 million copies in 33 different languages. He was once invited to China to give lectures. His self - confidence and humorous conversations impressed us deeply.
From Hawking’s unusual experience, we learn that nobody should lose hope, no matter how bad the situation is. As he once said, “Life is not fair (公平的), you just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”
