Answer:

A Visit to Cambridge – Introduction

A Visit to Cambridge is written by Firdaus Kanga, writer and journalist from Mumbai. He was born with ‘brittle bones’ that tended to break easily when he was a child. The lesson gives us a glimpse of the meeting between Firdaus Kanga and Stephen Hawking. Stephen Hawking, one of the greatest scientists of our time suffered from a form of paralysis that confined him to a wheelchair, and allowed him to ‘speak’ only by punching buttons on a computer, which speaks for him in a machine-like voice. Both these men moved around in wheelchairs. It was during Firdaus Kanga’s visit to Cambridge that they met each other.
