  Stephen Hawking is one of the most famous scientists in this century. He was born in 1942. He’s a world well-known scientist on space and time. Stephen is researching some very big questions, such as: How did the universe begin? How will it end?
  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 said 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 can’t walk now, but he uses a wheelchair (轮椅). He can’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).
  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. 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. He was once invited to China, he impressed us with his self-confidence, humorous and witty (风趣的) conversation.
  史蒂芬·霍金是本世纪最著名的科学家之一。他出生于1942年,他关于时间和空间的研究为世人所知。霍金正在研究许多深邃的问题,比如:宇宙是怎样产生的?它会怎样结束?
  霍金曾是牛津大学的学生,他研究数学和科学。后来,当他20岁时,他得了重病。虽然他还如此年轻,但是医生们告诉他的家人:“他只能再活两年了。”事实证明,医生们错了——他没有死,现在他虽然不能走路,但他使用轮椅。他不能自己吃饭,或者自己上下床。然而他拒绝屈服于这个情况,他通过电脑的帮助进行交流谈话。牛津大学毕业后,霍金去了剑桥大学。三年之后,在1965年他成为一名哲学博士。
  因为他严重的健康问题,他画图标或是写字是很困难的,所以他开始用图片来思考,通过这个新颖的思考方式,他成为了世界上最著名的科学家之一。在1988年,他写下了他第一本重要的书:《时间简史》。《时间简史》被翻译成33种语言发行了550多万册。他曾被邀请到中国,他那自信、幽默、风趣的谈话给我们留下了深刻的印象。

摘 要:本文简介了二面角大小的几种求法,并针对法向量法求二面角时存在的两法向量的夹角与二面角的大小的关系判定问题提出了一种改良解法——指向向量法.  关键词:二面角;单向法向量  常见的二面角的求法以几何法和向量法为主. 其中几何法有定义法、垂面法、三垂线法和射影面积法等;向量法通常是指法向量法. 在运用法向量法求二面角的大小中的难点是两个平面的法向量的夹角与二面角的大小相等或互补的判定,教材和众
