介绍:
大家好!这里是CRS英语广播电台,我是主播William。 76岁的霍金先生离开了这个世界,这一天恰好也是爱因斯坦的生日,只是巧合吗?他的三个孩子 Lucy, Robert和Tim在声明中说:  He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years. His courage and persistence with his brilliance and humour inspired people across the world. He once said, ‘It would not be much of a universe if it wasn’t home to the people you love.’ We will miss him forever. 是啊,我们都会想念他。1942年出生,21岁那年罹患渐冻人症,手部只有三根手指头能动。不 过身体的不便并没有阻碍他成为一名优秀的科学家,优秀的、有趣的科学家。 他微博上有400多万关注,友情客串过《生活大爆炸》,去年他还说想要去外太空走一走。在这 个看脸的时代,他诠释了什么是Smart is the new sexy。 霍金的智慧也体现在他的语录中。 关于人类联络外星人 If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans. 如果外星人造访地球,结局可能和哥伦布发现美洲大陆一样,后者对于当时的美洲原住民来说可不是个好事。 关于科学发现中灵感迸发、豁然开朗的瞬间 (the Eureka moment): I wouldn’t compare it to sex, but it lasts longer. 我不想把它和爱相比,不过它的持久性更长一些。 关于残疾 If you are disabled, it is probably not your fault, but it is no good blaming the world or expecting it to take pity on you. One has to have a positive attitude and must make the best of the situation that one finds oneself in; if one is physically disabled, one cannot afford to be psychologically disabled as well. 如果你患有残疾,这也许不是你的错,但抱怨社会,或指望他人的怜悯,毫无益处。一个人要有积极的态度,要最大限度地利用现状。生理上有残疾的人,可不能再让自己在心理上也残疾了。 关于命运和个人的意志 I have noticed that even people who claim everything is predetermined and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road. 我发现,虽然有的人认为凡事天注定,我们做什么都改变不了,但他们在过马路的时候,还是会注意看车。 还有霍金对自己孩子说过的话,从这寥寥数语中,你能看到这位科学家的情怀。 霍金给自己孩子的建议 One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. 一、记住要抬头仰望星星,不要低头看着自己的脚。 Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. 二、绝不要放弃工作。工作给了你意义和目标。没有工作的人生是空洞的。 Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away. 三、如果你有幸能找到爱情,记住它一直都在,不要随便将它抛弃。 1994年,77岁的大学教授Morrie患上了和霍金一样的病,他开始思考人生的意义。他说:If you've found meaning in your life, you don't want to go back. You want to go forward. 我们人生 的意义是什么?当我们离开的时候别人会如何用一句话写我们? 那些我们爱的、爱我们的人终将离我们而去。不过没有人会真的永远消失,他们会被想起被怀 念,像从未离开过一样。 今天的节目到这里就要跟大家说再见了,感谢您的收听,咱们,下期再见。
