Stephen Hawking: the mind beyond the wheelchair
Stephen Hawking, recognized as one of the greatest scientists of his time,was known for his contributions to science as well as how he overcame great suffering in his life. His story made him a household name and an inspiration to all.
Hawking was born in England in 1942. He went to the University of Oxford at 17 and then to the University of Cambridge to further his studies. Sadly, he was diagnosed with a terrible disease shortly after his 21st birthday. This disease slowly robs people of the ability to move their muscles. Hawking was told he only had a few years to live.
As his illness got worse, Hawking started using a walking stick to get around and later needed a wheelchair, yet he had a surprisingly positive attitude towards life. “Although I cannot move and I have to speak through a computer, in my mind I am free,” he said later. Hawking lived on and continued to work till he died at 76.
Despite his poor health, Hawking’s influence on modern science is great. Much of his work focused on understanding our universe better and explaining the beginning of space and time. His work has not only changed our view of the universe, but also provided people with a new way of thinking about the universe. He was also known for his continued efforts in trying to explain very difficult scientific ideas to a wider audience. His highly popular book, A Brief History of Time, has been translated into more than 30 languages and sold over 25 million copies since it was first published in 1988.
Today, whenever Hawking’s name is mentioned, people remember not only his scientific achievements, but his courage to fight against his difficulties. Hawking never let his illness stand in his way. “However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at,” he once said. “It matters that you don’t just give up.”

1.Why is the title “the mind beyond the wheelchair” What does it mean
2.What is the most touching thing about Hawking, his scientific success
or his spirit Give your reason.
His body was trapped in a wheelchair, but his mind was never limited. Physical disability could not stop his thinking and exploring the universe.
I think his spirit is more touching. He suffered from a terrible disease and doctors told him he would live only a few years. But he held a positive attitude towards life. He never gave up fighting against illness. Even in great pain, he kept working. His courage strongly moves us, not just his great scientific achievements.

3.What do you think people can learn from Hawking’s story And what can we do when we meet difficulties in our study or daily life
From Hawking, we learn these good qualities: positive attitude, strong will, courage and never-give-up.
When we face difficulties in study or daily life, we shouldn’t lose heart. As Hawking said, “However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.” We need to keep trying instead of giving up. We should find ways to solve problems and keep moving forward.

Activity 18 Sharing.
For example:
Just like Hawking was physically trapped in a wheelchair, we also have our own mental “wheelchairs” in daily life, such as heavy study pressure, worries about exams and weak subjects. I once did badly in English exams and wanted to give up. That was my mental “wheelchair”. But I kept practising and asked my teacher for help. Slowly I made progress. This was my “mind beyond wheelchair” moment. It tells me we can move past our troubles as long as we never give up.
