"Brilliant book!"
At eleven Stephen went to St Albans School, and then on to University College, Oxford, his father's old college. Stephen wanted to do Mathematics, although his father would have preferred medicine. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he did Physics instead. After three years and not very much work he was awarded a first class honors degree in Natural Science.
“As I read his ideas about space, time, black holes, and the Universe in which we live, I was amazed at how easily he explained the exciting but often complicated subjects explored in the book. I loved how he brought such inspiring theories to the public with a unique wit and insight, making previously baffling concepts fun.”

现代大学英语精读1-UNIT9-After-Twenty-Years--课文翻译
2014101018第九单元Translation of Text A二十年后1正在巡逻的警察精神抖擞的沿着大街走着。
他这样引人注目并不奇怪，并不是为了招摇，因为此时大街上根本没有什么观众。
时间还不到晚上十点钟，但夹带着雨意的冷风几乎清空了整个街道。
2警察边走边检查门是否关好了，他十分灵巧的不停转动着警棍，眼光还不时头像平静的街道，他那魁梧的身材，配上卓越不凡的气势，就是一副治安维持者的形象。
那个地区的人晚上休息的很早。
你偶尔还能看到一家雪茄店或是昼夜营业的饭店还在亮着灯，但是觉得大多数的店铺都已经关门了。
3在一个街区的半路上，警察忽然放慢了脚步。
在一家已经关门的五金店的门廊里，一个男子倚在那里，嘴里叼着一只未点燃的雪茄。
当警察朝他走去时，男人赶忙毫不犹豫的说。
4“没事的，长官。
”他坦然的说。
“我只是在等一个朋友，这是二十年前就定好的约会，听起来有点荒唐。
是吧？哦，如果你想弄明白事情的真相，我就说个你听。
大约二十年前，在这家五金商店说在的位置曾经是一家餐馆——“大乔”布雷迪餐馆。
”5“那家餐馆五年前还在，”警察说道，“后来就被拆除了。
”6门廊里的人划着火柴，点着了烟。
火光映出了一张苍白的，方正下巴的脸，一双尖锐的眼睛，右边眉毛附近还有一道泛白的疤痕。
他的领带夹上镶着一颗大钻石，镶的十分奇怪。
7“二十年前的这个晚上，”男子说，“我和吉米-威尔斯在大乔布雷迪餐馆共进晚餐，他是我最好的朋友，也是世界上最好的人。
我和他一起在纽约长大，亲如手足。
当年，我18岁，吉米20岁。
第二天早晨，我就要动身去西部赚钱去了。
吉米是无论如何也不会离开纽约的，他认为这是世界上最好的地方。
那天晚上我们定好，就在20年后的同一天，同一时间，我们都要在这里碰面，不管我们的情况如何，也不管我们相隔多远。
我们觉得不管怎么样，20年后的我们命运也应该有一个好结果了，该发财的也已经发财了。
8“挺起来有点意思，”警察说道。
“尽管在我看来，你们俩见面的时间间隔长了点，自从你离开后，你和你的朋友还有联系吗？”9“哦，有的，有一段时间我们相互通信。

where many European settlers moved during the 19th century to establish new farms and new cities. In films it is often shown as a place where cowboys and Native Americans fight each other, and where cowboys use guns rather than law to settle arguments. Therefore, a situation where there are no laws or controls is sometimes described as being like the Wild West.
