    I used to watch her from my kitchen window. She seemed so 1as she struggled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they2during breaks. I remember the first day I saw her playing3. She was the only girl playing with a group of boys. I watched 4as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to 5her but no one could. I began to6her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.

    One day I asked her7she practiced so much. Without a moment of hesitation (犹豫), she said "I want to go to college. The only way I can go is to get a scholarship (奖学金). I like basketball. I think that if I were good enough, I would get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be 8. My daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don't 9. " Then she smiled and ran back to the playground to continue the training. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week she led her school team to victory.

    One day in her senior year, I saw her10in the grass, head in her arms. I walked across the street and also sat down in the cool grass beside her. 11I asked what was wrong. "Oh, nothing, " came a soft reply. "I am just too short. " The coaches told her that she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team —12offered a scholarship. So she should stop dreaming about 13. It's out of reach for her. She was14 and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. But I didn't know how to cheer her up. After both keep silent for quite a while, I asked her if she had15her dad about it yet. She didn't say anything for another few minutes but then she16her head with tears in her eyes and she told me firmly that her father said those coaches were 17. They just did not understand the power of the18. He told her that if she truly wanted a scholarship and then nothing could stop her 19one thing—her own attitude. Then she dried her eyes, stood up and ran towards the playground to repeat the routine.

    The next year, 20she was still not tall enough, she was offered a full scholarship and on the college team as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of and worked toward for all those years for free.

    Just have a big dream and keep on chasing it. Maybe it will come true one day.

    Kobe Bryant, one of the most famous basketball players was killed in a helicopter crash (直升机坠毁)in California, along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven other people. Bryant was on his way to attend a youth basketball competition with his daughter. Bryant and his wife, Vanessa, had four daughters.

    The cause of the crash is unknown until now. The helicopter carrying Bryant and the others crashed into a hilly area in bad weather conditions outside Los Angeles. Bryant lived in south of Los Angeles and often used helicopters to travel around the area to save time and avoid Southern California traffic.

    Bryant was 41 years old. He was an 18-time All-Star player. He won five NBA championships (总冠军)and two Olympic gold medals. He was widely considered one of the greatest basketball players during his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers. When he finished his last game in NBA in 2016, Bryant was the third-leading scorer in NBA history with 33,643 points. He is widely expected to be chosen to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (奈史密斯篮球名人纪念堂)this year.

    The basketball world and the Los Angeles community felt terribly sorry for the loss of this super star. NBA Commissioner (,总裁)Adam Silver said Bryant was one of the greatest stars in the game. But he added, he will be remembered most for inspiring people around the world to pick up a basketball and compete to the very best of their ability.

   ①It's hard to turn down a tasty banana. They taste good and you don't have to wash them before eating them. However, British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050.

   ②One reason forthis is climate (气候) change. Scientists at the University of Exeter collected data (数据) from 27 countries and regions that produce 86 percent of the world's bananas. They found that climate change has improved growing conditions in 21 of these countries. In the past 60 years, the average yield (平均产量) has reached 1. 37 tons of bananas per hectare (公顷) .

   ③However, if temperatures keep rising, this advantage will disappear. Ten of the countries, including India, the world5s biggest producer of bananas, will produce fewer bananas. By 2050, the fruit may die out.

    ④Shouldn't bananas grow more easily if it*s hotter outside? In fact, the perfect temperature range for growing bananas is between 24 and 32 "C. If temperatures get too high, they will stop growing.

    ⑤Diseases are another danger to bananas. Unlike other crops, the bananas we grow come from shoot cuttings (茎段) rather than seeds (系中子) . This means that all banana plants have the same genotype. In other words, if a disease is able to kill one plant, it could kill them all.

   ⑥One serious disease is called Panama. Caused by fungus (真菌) in the soil, it spreads easily. It has spread across South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia. If one banana plantation suffers from the disease, it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again. Scientists have yet to find a cure for this disease.
