For what many people find most striking about him is the contrast between the strength of his mind and the weakness of his body. For for many years Hawking has suffered from an illness that has left him unable to move and to speak normally.Born in England in 1942, Hawking had a normal childhood, and it was not until he was a student at university that his illness started to affect him. Hospital tests showed he was suffering from a disease that weakens control over the muscles. The disease gets worse with time and there is no known cure. But Hawking did not lose heart. As he says, although there was a cloud hanging over my future, I found, to my surprise, that I was enjoying life more than before. I began to make progress with my research, and I got engaged to a girl called Jane Wilde. That engagement changed my life. It gave me something to live for.Hawking started research at Cambridge and went on to hold the same post that another great scientist, Newton, once held. Over the years his condition has worsened, but even when he finally lost the ability to speak, he managed to get round the problem. He now uses a puter that enables him to select words which are then turned into speech. The only trouble, the English scientist says, is that it gives me an American accent! 102 Appendix IPart II Text AText Organization1.PartsParagraphsMain IdeasPart OneParas 13To make informed decisions about change, the public needs a basic understanding of science.Part TwoParas 46What can be done to educate the public about science.Part ThreePara 7With an informed public, human civilization will survive.2. 1) The importance of the teaching of science in schools.2) The role mass media can play, especially what television can do.Vocabulary2) brief4) cut...off6) anyway8) moreover10) in the form of12) initiative14) fit into1? 1)3)5)7)9)11)13)15)21)2)3)4)5)3.1)inquired in terms of tend precise grasped sufficient convey in two mindsWinning the match today has ensured their team a place in the Cup Final.
