His life experience was also inspiring. Stephen was a student at Oxford University. He studied math and science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became sick. He was so young, but the doctors s aid to his family, “He has only two more years to live.” As a matter of fact, the doctors were wrong –he didn’t die. He c ould n’t walk but he use d a wheelchair. He couldn’t feed himself and get in or out of bed himself. But he refused to give in to the condition. He talked with the help of a computer. After Oxford, Stephen went to Cambridge University. Three years later, in 1965, he became a doctor of philosophy(哲学).
Because of his serious health problems, it was difficult for him to draw or to write. So he started to think in pictures. With this new way of thinking, he became one of the most famous scientists in the world. In 1981, he met the Pope(教皇) in Rome. They talked about his ideas. Then in 1988, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It sold more than million copies in 33 different languages. It’s one of the best-selling science books of all time. He was once invited to China, he impressed us with his self-confidence, humorous and witty(风趣的) conversation.

Look at the picture on the left, have you ever seen it It means friendship is just like a little boat and it can be capsized(倾覆)easily. It

appeared in his Microblog in March, 2021. It has become popular
because many people have the same feeling. Do you have any ideas
about it
Li Ming,
a student in Guangzhou
I think the picture tells the truth. Sometimes friendship is easy to pass away because of some words. These days I feel sad because I lost a good friend. He asked me to help him cheat in the math exam. I didn’t want to do that, so I refused him. I still think I didn’t do anything wrong.
I wouldn’t like to say sorry to him. I really don’t know how to be friends with him again.
Kate,
an English teacher in Shenzhen
I also have the same experience. Last month, a good friend asked me to help her son with his English. I was busy preparing my lessons and getting ready for an exam. I told her I had no time and I would help her son whenever I was free. Two weeks later, I called her, but she didn’t answer the phone. Instead, she sent me a message and told me that she didn’t need my help any more. I know she didn’t forgive(原谅) me but I don’t know what to do.
The name of the person who created the picture 96. _________________________
The time that the picture first appear 97. _________________________

书面表达（参考范文）
Almost everyone of us in the world has friends, and hopes that our friendship can last forever. In my opinion, it’s nice to have friends because we can talk, laugh, and do things together.
Last month I had a fight with my best friend Tom because he took my watch without permission. Two days later, Tom wrote to me and said sorry to me. As a result, we’re still good friends now. I feel happy that I didn’t lose my best friend.
To make friendship last forever, we should try our best to help our friends when they are in trouble. Besides, understand each other and think of others more than ourselves.。
