Kobe Bryant wasn't the first NBA player to visit China. But he was the first player to help China grow into a basketball-crazed nation.
Kobe's first visit was in 1998, and in conducting basketball clinics （篮球训练营），doing business and participating in charity, he was warmly welcomed in the basketball-loving country. Once, nearly 15,000 people showed up at 9 am for an event at which Kobe was scheduled to appear at 4 pm.
USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo saw firsthand Kobe's popularity during Kobe's time with Team USA at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, when as captain he led the team to a gold medal. "There were tens of thousands of people on the streets, yelling, 'Kobe! Kobe!' It was unbelievable, just unbelievable," Colangelo said.
"It's harder for me to walk around here than in the United States," Kobe once told reporters in China in 2013. “It's uncontrollable. Fans rush you and surround you, and it gets to the point where you can't go out."
His last visit was in August last year for the 2019 FIBA World Cup. He told reporters, “I watched the country develop from the ground up. I watched Beijing grow. I watched the passion for the game develop. My goal is to develop the country's basketball to a level where they can compete with the best basketball countries in the world,", Kobe said.
Kobe was and perhaps remains China's favourite NBA player, and fans in the country were shocked by his death in a helicopter crash in January this year. Tencent, the NBA's digital partner in China, posted a memorial page that drew more than five million visitors in less than five days.
Just two days before Kobe died, he posted a short video on the Chinese micro-blogging site Weibo, wishing Chinese fans a happy new year. How sorrowful his fans are when they watch the video again!

The old man walked slowly into the restaurant. His poor jacket, patched trousers, and worn-out shoes made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled like diamonds, large rosy cheeks, and thin lips held in a steady smile.
With the help of his trusty cane, he walked toward a table by the window. A young waitress named Mary watched him and ran over to him, saying, “Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair.”
Without a word, he smiled and nodded a thank you. She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she pushed the table up close to him, and leaned his cane against the table where he could reach it.
In a soft, clear voice he said, “Thank you, Miss.”
“You are welcome, Sir.” She replied. “My name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment. If you need anything, just wave at me!”
After he had finished a hearty meal of pancakes, bacon, and hot lemon tea, Mary brought him the change, helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table. She handed him his cane, and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, Sir!”
He nodded a thank you and said softly with a smile, “You are very kind!”
When Mary went to clean his table, she was shocked. Under his plate she found a business card and a note written on the napkin, under which was a $100 bill.
The note on the napkin read, “Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself, too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.”

Moksh Jawa, 16, a student in the second year at Washington High School in the US, has already become a legend among students. “Why not?” might be his favorite question to ask.
His high school didn’t teach coding. As a sophomore in this school, he developed his own online course and helped his classmates get through it while a student in higher grades enen couldn’t do like him.
Everything he did came from his own interest. “I just fell in love with computer science,” Jawa said. Along the way, he lit a fire of curiosity and passion among classmates to learn coding too.
“All of my friends, especially the girls, were really, really afraid of computer science,” he said. But the subject and exam weren’t things to be feared, he said. “Computer science is all about logic (逻辑), not about how smart you are.”
To make his knowledge available online, Jawa set about creating his own online course, with easy-to-follow lessons.
The course has so far attracted 3,200 students across the US and in 120 countries and regions, including China, Ukraine and Algeria. It shows, Jawa said, the huge need for coding lessons.
When video lecturing, “I deliver it like I’m talking from one high school student to another,” Jawa said. “It’s always great to make it as clear and fun as possible, and to try to keep my voice as energetic as possible.”
He also does that, when teaching members of the computer science club he founded at his high school.
“His tutorials (辅导) were great,” said junior Taj Shaik, the club’s co-president, who took the whole course last year. “I’m definitely one of the early adopters of Moksh.”
“He’s pretty amazing,” said Bob Moran, principal of Washington High School, who saw him lead the club. “He was just a fantastic teacher – clear, organized and entertaining. When a student got the right answer, he would throw them a piece of candy.”
1.What made Moksh Jawa a legend among students? (within 15 words)
2.How do the girls feel the computer science according to Jawa’s opinion? (within 20 words)
3.What does the underlined word “sophomore” probably mean?(within 8 words)
4.According to the article, how does Jawa teach coding lessons?(within 15 words)
5.What do you think of Jawa’s courses? Why do you think so? (within 20 words)

In college, Spring Break（春假）is usually associated with the beach, parties and sleepless nights, bringing about relaxation, free time and friends. Students who wish to spend their break doing something productive and rewarding, however, may choose to participate in the Alternative Break Program. It places college students in communities both at home and abroad.
The Program allows students to take part in various projects dealing with issues such as literacy（识字）, homelessness and the environment. It includes helping kids with their lessons, raising money for families in need and collecting data for environmental research.
The hope is that, by getting themselves involved in different environments, students will have the opportunities and broaden their view. In turn, they will incorporate（融合）their experiences and lessons learned into their own communities. In a word, the program aims to encourage students to be active citizens and engage themselves in making a difference in society.
In the spring of 2006, about 3,600 students in the USA participated in the Alternative Break Program.
Samantha Giacobozzi, now director of the Program, has been on five alternative break trips herself, including trips to New Orleans, India and the Dominican Republic. “I was a student who went on alternative break trips and had my life totally transformed by that experience,” she said. “Every year, we meet many students who have attended the Program. You can see changes in their life that are connected with their alternative break experiences.”
The Program began in 1991. Today, it has become increasingly popular with college students in the United States.

My family and I belonged to a country club located across the street from the Long Island Sound. Each summer, the big attraction for us was the pool. I learned how to swim and joined the swimming team but was never really a good swimmer. However, swimming in my younger days was a way to keep cool, and swimming on a team gave me identity and a sense of belonging. It also became invaluable many years later.
Fast-forward (快进) to 1973 — I was married, pregnant and had a home. What made our little home even more wonderful was when I discovered that four blocks away was Rath Park Pool! For the next 30 years, most of our summer days were spent around that pool.
Each of my five kids took swimming lessons and learned all the different swimming strokes (姿势). They later joined the swim team and competed in meets. My daughter even became a lifeguard at the town pool. I sat back and happily took it all in!
As much as I would have liked to have life stand still, it doesn’t. My children outgrew their pool days and moved on. But the pool was still four blocks from my home, so I began to take up swimming again. And it was far better than I ever could have imagined. I got so much out of it that I joined the local pool so I could swim year-round. Whenever I swam, I would always come out feeling physically and mentally refreshed. I often felt that if I looked hard enough, I would be able to see all of the worries and problems I’ve had in life, sitting at the bottom of the pool!
What has swimming taught me? I’ve learned that balance is the key to being a good swimmer. If you are balanced in the water, you have no resistance. Working on staying balanced made me realize the similarities between life in and out of the swim lane (泳道). If you work on keeping yourself balanced, you will be able to swim right through the stress and problems life throws at you!

Since it never occurred to anybody at the school to provide the services of an interpreter,I had to sit in the front row so that I could read the teacher's lips. Classroom discussions were virtually impossible to follow because I couldn't hear what was being said around the room.In a vain effort to keep up with them,I was always asking whoever happened to be sitting next to me what was being said. Eventually,I got tired of watching everyone shrug their shoulders indifferently and rolling their eyes.I began to pretend that I knew what was going on.Fitting in was so important to me that every time the kids laughed,I laughed along even though I felt muddle-headed most of the time.
Luckily then fate threw me light.
On one sunny afternoon,my teacher,Mrs.Jordan,asked the class a question.I read her lips from my front-row seat and immediately raised my hand.I couldn't believe it-despite my fears,I felt incredibly confident because-for once-I was sure I had the right answer.But,when she called on me,I was suddenly afraid. Here was an opportunity to impress the powerful teacher and show her I was worthy of her love.I didn't want to blow it.I took a deep breath and nervously answered her question.
Her explosive response shocked all of us.She enthusiastically stepped her right foot on the floor,pointing directly at me.With sparkling eyes and a wide smile she cried,“THAT'S RIGHT,STEPHEN!”
For the first time in my young life,I felt like an instant star.My heart burst with pride.My confidence soared.It was amazing what a great effect the simple three-word phrase delivered with incredible enthusiasm had on my young life. THAT'S RIGHT,STEPHEN!It got me to think that I would make a place for myself in this world no matter how many obstacles I had to overcome.From that day,my grades and speech improved dramatically and my peers suddenly looked at me with new respect.

I returned to Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, after college graduation. I had been there before my mother became a minister.
Two weeks later, I told my mother I was bored. She said, “Here’re the car keys. Go and buy some fruit.” Delighted, I jumped into the car and speeded off.
Seeing me or rather my car, a boy quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bananas and nuts. “Banana 300 naira. Nuts 200 naira!” I bargained him down to 200 total for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira note. He didn’t have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I ran into this same boy, I was more aware of my position in Nigerian society where it wasn’t that uncommon to see a little boy who should have been in school selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
“What’s up?”I asked him. “I…I don’t have money to buy books.” I took out two 500 naira notes. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira means a lot to a family that makes only 50,000 each year.
The next morning, an officer told me, “In this place, when you give a little, people think you’re a fountain of chance.” Possibly it’s right, but this happens everywhere in the world. I wondered if my little friend had actually used the money for books.
After six months’ work in northern Nigeria, I returned and saw him again standing on the road.
“Are you in school now?” I asked.
He nodded.
A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. I held out a 500 naira note. “Take this.” He shook his head fiercely and stepped back as if hurt. “What’s wrong? I asked. “It’s a gift.”
Shaking his head again, he handed me a basket of bananas and nuts before he said, “I’ve been waiting to give these to you.”

Last December, Doris Low turned 90. Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into Braille() to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers. She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40 years.
After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up. So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.
Low’s mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, low read to her. Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.” In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber (转译者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.
The job was strenuous ---she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again. For a number of years, low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape. Three years ago, she took up proofreading (校对) at the CNIB’s word factory.
In April, during Volunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions. Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80,000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print. “ I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from
Doris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.
“For me,” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer. Three thins matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I’ve found them all here.”
1.What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)
