He was so young, but the doctors said to his family, ldquo;He has only two more years to live.rdquo; As a matter of fact, the doctors were wrong---- he didnrsquo;t die. He canrsquo;t walk now but he uses a wheelchair(轮椅). He canrsquo;t feed himself and get in or out of bed himself. But he refused to give in to the condition. He talks 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).</font></div><div><font size="3">Because of his serious health problems, it was difficult for him to draw diagrams(图表) 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 5.5 million copies in 33 different languages.

Most of the time, they hold a box and ask for donations on the street or in the park. Or they sell things like old books and CDs. Those students have done a great job so far. The money helps the students in poor areas like Yunnan and Gansu with new clothes, pens and pencils.</font></div><div><font size="3">Teenagers in the US make donations, too. But they raise money in a different waymdash;they raise money by doing something for others. For example, they sell home-made food or play musical concerts in their neighborhood to raise money.</font></div><div><font size="3">ldquo;Chinese students like to wait for people to donate, or sell things that they buy with their parentsrsquo; money,rdquo;says Ge Daoshun, an expert.ldquo;While US kids get donations and give people something useful in return.rdquo;</font></div><div><font size="3">Ge says Chinese teenagers should learn to raise money in the US kidsrsquo; ways.ldquo;That way, they can show their talents and practice communication.
