拓展思考(示例)
I admire Stephen Hawking very much. He was robbed of the ability to move, but he never let his illness stand in his way. He had a surprisingly positive attitude towards life. Hawking continued to work and made great contributions to science. His book A Brief History of Time has helped millions of people understand the universe. From his story, I learn that however difficult life may seem, we should never give up. I will try to have a positive attitude when I face challenges.
