Module 1 Basketball
Michael Jordan
—毕游Head and Shoulders Above the Rest!
During the 1990s, Michael Jordan was probably the best-known athlete in the world. He was the top scorer in the NBA, and played for the Chicago Bulls from 1984 to 1993. He was named their most valued player five times. Wearing his famous number 23 shirt, Michael Jordan became the most successful basketball player in the history of the game.
Jordan was born in New York and grew up in North Carolina. He attended the University of North Carolina for a year before leaving to join the Chicago Bulls. He finished his first season (1984–1985) as one of the top scorers in the league, with an average of 28.2 points per game.
In 1987, Jordan became only the second player to score more than 3,000 points in a season. He was the top scorer in the NBA for seven consecutive seasons (1987–1993). During this time, the average number of points he scored was more than 30 points per game. With him, the Bulls won their first NBA championship in 1991. During this successful period they won the title again in 1992 and 1993. Jordan was also in the United States Olympic Basketball Team, known as "the Dream Team"手仔销戚顷, which won the gold medal at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain.
Jordan surprised everyone when he retired before the 1993–1994 season, but he rejoined the Chicago Bulls and won three more championships with them from 1996 to 1998. He played again for the Washington Wizards before finally retiring from sport in 2003 at the age of 40. Millions of fans admire his athletic ability, motivation and confidence. They have fantastic stories to tell about Michael Jordan, such as the time when he rescued the Bulls from ending a game on a tie. He stepped to the line and made two free throws. Each time he threw the ball straight through the basket—and each time he had his eyes closed.
Off the basketball court, Michael Jordan opened his own steak restaurant because he loves steak so much. He also found success as an actor in the film Space Jam alongside the famous cartoon character Bugs Bunny!
There is only one word to describe the best player in the world—awesome!
Wilt the Stilt—the Tower of Power!
Michael Jordan was the second player to score more than 3,000 points in a season—but the first was Wilt Chamberlain.
Chamberlain was born in Philadelphia on 21st August 1936. He was one of the 11 children, the only one who was very tall. His father William worked in a shipyard and his mother Olivia was a cleaner. As a child, Chamberlain had various health problems. He had pneumonia and almost died when he was ten.
Chamberlain is the only NBA player who averaged over 50 points per game for an entire season. At one point, Chamberlain was so much better than all the other players that they changed the rules of the game to try to stop him!
The giant player joined the NBA's Philadelphia Warriors in the 1959–1960 season and was an immediate success. During 14 seasons with four different teams, Chamberlain was named the most valued player in the league four times. On 2nd March 1962, he scored 100 points in a single game—no one has ever done that since! The final score was Warriors 169 New York Knicks 147!
He ended his career after five amazing seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers. By the time he retired, Wilt held many NBA records: he scored 50 or more points 118 times and 60 or more points 32 times.
Was Wilt Chamberlain better than Michael Jordan? Who knows? But there is no doubt that he deserves the title "outstanding player of his generation".

Is Yao Ming Too Nice to Be a Star?
Jeff Van Gundy, the head coach of the Houston Rockets, has a dream. He wants Yao Ming to be like other players. Star players, says Gundy, are "selfish" and want the ball all the time. "Let's put it this way," he said. "When they ask for the ball, they don't say 'please'!"
Yao, however, is a selfless and kind person. He has been brought up and trained in this way. It is not in his nature to be "selfish" and "rude".
When he first arrived in the US, Yao was an instant hit among basketball fans nationwide. They all loved this kind, gentle but powerful giant. Van Gundy wanted to build his team around the talented Chinese player. To do this, he told Yao to be more aggressive and, if necessary, to be rude to his teammates.
"He's a wonderful guy, he has every physical basketball skill and he puts the team first," Van Gundy said. "But I want him to be a star, not just a great team player. He's got to think that he's the best player out there. That way, he can dominate the game."
"At first, I didn't really understand what the coach wanted," Yao said. "But now I do. In China, everyone gave me the ball, I didn't have to ask! Here, I have to be a little 'impolite'! I'm not quite used to it yet. If you give me a little time, I can get more used to it. I have to learn to be a little more 'selfish'.
Dizzy Heights of School Basketball
Basketball is one of the safest sports. Unlike wrestling or boxing, it's not usually dangerous. One reason for this is that the players' energy is partly directed upwards, at a 90-degree angle to the ground, and over the heads of the others. So there's less risk of a collision between two players.
In other sports, such as baseball and American football, the players' energy moves parallel to the ground and towards their opponents, so they wear helmets which give adequate protection to their heads.
But although basketball players wear socks and sneakers which are specially designed to absorb energy when they bound into the air, they wear no other protection, just a vest and shorts. If there is an abrupt change of direction in their energy, from vertical to horizontal, such as when they accelerate across the court, bouncing the ball, there is a real danger of personal injury.
For example, in the Kent State High School Basketball tournament, Chandler High was playing St Mary Central and at the interval the score was 50–52. But St Mary had appointed a captain who was not a typical basketball player. Whereas everyone else was tall and slim with short haircuts, Joe Johannsen was short and stout, with long hair and a large belly. But he was really fast, and when he obtained control of the ball, he could make a circuit of the court and reach the opposing team's boundary within seconds.
Anyhow, twelve minutes into the second half, Frank Sackler, the Chandler star player, made a controversial pass over Joe's head. Joe stepped aside and dipped his head down. Sackler bounced off him and committed a foul. The referee interrupted the match, and there was a suspension of play. But Joe was unhurt, shot the penalty, and the score was 88–90. There were three minutes to go.
Joe immediately took possession of the ball and ran, ... and suddenly 80 kilos hit the Chandler star, who howled loudly in pain and fell, with his nose bleeding and a cut on his left cheek. For a moment, he lay very still, and the referee even checked his pulse, but soon confirmed he was OK. But when Sackler stood up he was dizzy, so they put a bandage round his head, a blanket round his shoulders, and called an ambulance to take him to the hospital. Joe was a considerate guy, and apologised as Sackler left, sniffing and weeping, either in pain or in frustration.
Chandler scored with the penalty, and their teamwork had won the match. But Frank Sackler still has the scar on his face as a souvenir of the tournament.
How Did They Start
How did American football start?
Football—or soccer—started in England 800 years ago. The game was played with a round ball that players kicked but could not carry. There were two teams, but there were often a hundred players on each team!
However, in 1823, William Webb Ellis, a pupil at Rugby School in England, picked up the ball during a soccer game and ran with it. Teachers at the school were shocked and angry but Webb Ellis's schoolmates enjoyed this new game, which they named after the school. Eventually, rugby was played with an oval ball that could be both carried and thrown.
Rugby was exported to the United States, changed a lot and became the sport that Americans now call football. During a game of American football, the ball can be kicked, thrown or carried.
How did basketball start?
Basketball was invented in 1891 in a gymnasium in Springfield, Massachusetts by Dr James Naismith, a physical education teacher. Naismith wanted to create a game that would provide exercise for a noisy class through the cold winter months. Naismith attached two baskets to two tall poles at each end of the gymnasium and gave the players a soccer ball and told them to try to throw the ball into the baskets. Naismith later wrote 13 rules which are the basis of modern basketball rules.
How did baseball start?
The exact origin of baseball is unknown, but it is probably based on an old English game called rounders. In the USA, a version of the game became popular in the early 19th century and eventually, a man called Alexander Cartwright wrote the rules for baseball in 1845. Cartwright is called "the father of baseball" because the modern rules of the game are very similar to his original rules.
No problem\x0d\x0a “Ouch !” I howled in pain as I dropped the hammer onto my foot.\x0d\x0a I felt foolish .\x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aIt was pouring with rain, and , lame for a moment, I hopped around\x0d\x0ato the driver’s side .\x0d\x0a \x0d\x0a“No luck ?” said George.\x0d\x0aWe had a flat tyre and I was trying to change the wheel.\x0d\x0aBut it was stuck firm.\x0d\x0a \x0d\x0aWe had driven ten hours along the road through the jungle without seeing\x0d\x0aanother soul.\x0d\x0a In the distance was an ox working in a field .\x0d\x0a \x0d\x0a “So what do we do now ?” asked George , as I got back into the car .\x0d\x0a \x0d\x0aAbout fifteen minutes later, the rain stooped .

A
I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes!”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.
Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my two-year-old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.
Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favourite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food. I know that I will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others. It is truly a gift I want to prepare and deliver to someone in need.

Sitting in the play area of the doctor's office, my children, Paul, four, and Bailey, three, built a Lego tower while we waited to be called for Paul's examination.
“Good job, you guys，” I said, trying not to sound too tired. My husband was away on business, and it was difficult being alone with the kids. At times I felt like I was living in the jungle (丛林) rather than the suburbs.
“Don't put the Lego in your mouth, Bailey，” I said. Paul grabbed (抓取) it from him. “That's not nice, Paul，” I said. He gave back the Lego. I looked around the waiting room. A woman was eating something, a couple were talking, and an old gentleman in a blue jacket was reading a magazine. I wished I could sit quietly for a while. I wanted to be able to take a rest, or go shopping alone. At once, I was ashamed of myself. What kind of mother was I?“God，” I thought, “help me to be the very best mom I can be.”
The nurse came into the waiting room to get us. Just at that moment, the old gentleman in the waiting room put down his magazine and came up to me. With a smile on his face, he said, “Your children are most certainly lucky to have such a wonderful mother.” “Thank you，” I replied in a low voice and watched him walk back to his seat. We followed the nurse into the examination room. While she weighed Paul, I told her how that man had made my day.
Motherhood is still a jungle sometimes, but now when I feel tired I remember the encouraging words of the old gentleman.

No problem
“Ouch !” I howled in pain as I dropped the hammer onto my foot.
I felt foolish .
It was pouring with rain, and , lame for a moment, I hopped around
to the driver’s side .
“No luck ?” said George.
We had a flat tyre and I was trying to change the wheel.
But it was stuck firm.
We had driven ten hours along the road through the jungle without seeing
another soul.
In the distance was an ox working in a field .
“So what do we do now ?” asked George , as I got back into the car .
About fifteen minutes later, the rain stooped . Out of the jungle came an old woman.
She walked towards us carrying something long and thin.
“Uh—uh, here comes danger !” said George, “she’s got a spear. ”
She was wearing traditional garments, with short sleeves, a colourful
necklace and other jewellery.
As she got closer, we saw the spear was just a wooden pole.
I got out .
“Hello!” I said , in English.
“Can you help us ?” I pointed to the wheel .．
She stared at it, and then made a gesture to follow her back to the jungle.
George and I looked at each other, then set off after her.
Soon we came to a tent under an arch of trees.
It had a rigid framework of wooden poles, like the one the woman
was carrying, covered with heavy cloth, and fastened with rope made
with some kind of loose plant fibre.
All around were corn plants.
It was harvest time for the grain, and a spade, a fork and other tools
were lying on the ground.
Nearby were some chicks and a rooster, and a pig tied to a post .
The woman folded back a cloth and invited us in .
My eyes had to adjust to the darkness inside .
The tent was furnished with a few mats on the floor , and a low table
with a teapot .
She picked up a photo and showed it to us .
Was it her husband ?
The man in the photo was bare to the waist .
He looked much too young .
She was probably a widow .
Maybe her son or her nephew ?
Our hostess poured some tea , and watched as we drank.
“Say something , ” ordered George .
“Cheers!” I said and raised my cup .
“Can we contact a garage ?”
Suddenly , there was a tap at the door .
It was the man in the photo .
The old woman said something , and he looked at us .
I felt awkward , so I smiled at him .
“No problem , ” he said , in English .
He pulled out a mobile phone and made a call .
“Twenty minutes . No problem . Let’s wait by the car .” he said .
As we walked back to the car , the sun pierced the clouds .
Over the hills beyond was the most beautiful rainbow .
没问题
“哎哟!”我把锤子砸在脚上时疼得叫了起来。
我感觉自己很傻。
外面正下着飘泼大雨，瘸了一会儿后，我单脚蹦着来到驾驶座那一边。
“运气不好？”乔治说。
我们有一个轮胎瘪了，我试着想换一个轮子，但是它粘得太紧了。
我们穿过丛林沿路开了十个小时。
结果一个人也没看见。
远处有一头牛在地里干活。
“那么我们现在怎么办呢？”我回到汽车里时乔治问我。
大约过了十五分钟，雨停了。
从树林里出来了一个老妇人。
她手里拿着一个又细又长的东西朝我们起来。
“哦，有危险!”乔治说，“她拿着一支长矛。”
她穿着一身了族服装，短袖，鲜艳的领子，戴着首饰。
等她等她走近些时，我们看到那支长矛只不过是个木棍。
我走了出来。
“你好!”我用英语说。
“你能帮我们一个忙吗？”我指了指轮子。
她盯着轮子看了一会儿，然后做了个手势让我们跟她回到树林里去。
乔治和我对视了一眼，接着跟在她后面走。
很快我们来到一个歪脖树下的帐蓬跟前。
它的框架是用老妇人拿着的那样的木棍支成的，(上面)盖着厚布，
有一些松散的植物纤维编成的绳子系着。
周围是些庄稼。
现在正是粮食收获的时节，一把铁锹，一支耙，还有一些农具在地上放着。
附近有一些鸟和一只公鸡，柱子上还拴着一头猪 。
那个老妇人掀起来一块布请我们进去。
我的眼睛不得不去适应里面的黑暗。
帐篷的地上铺着一些地垫，低矮的桌子上放着一只茶壶。
她拿起一张照片给我们看。
那是她丈夫吗？
照片里的男人赤裸着上身。
他看起来太年轻了。
她可能是个寡妇。
可能那是她儿子或者外甥吧？
我们的女主人倒了一些茶，看着我们喝下去。
“说点什么吧，”乔治命令道。
“干杯！”我边说边举起杯子。
“我们能联系到一家汽车修理厂吗？”
突然，有人敲门。
是照片里的那个男人。
老妇人说了些话，他看着我们。
我觉得有些尴尬，就朝他笑了笑。
“没问题，”他用英语说。
然后拿出手机打了个电话。
“二十分钟。没问题。我们在汽车那儿等着吧。”他说。
我们走回到汽车前的时候，太阳从云片后面露出来 。
山那边是最美的彩虹。
