    Have a look at the man in the picture. You must know him. He is our star, Yao Ming. He was chosen to be the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2016 because he did a lot to make basketball popular in China. He became the first Chinese player to get the honor(荣誉).

Yao Ming was born on September 12, 1980. He was born in Shanghai, China. He started playing for the Shanghai Sharks as a teenager. And he led Shanghai Sharks to a China Basketball Association(CBA) Championship(冠军赛) in 2002. Then he played eight seasons in the NBA with the Houston Rockets. In 2011, he retired(退役) because of a series of foot and ankle injuries. But he was still one of China's best-known players. He also won the Asian Championships with China in 2001, 2003 and 2005.

 “I am honored to play basketball. It is a great sport that so many people love, care and watch. Thanks to the support from the fans. I hope I will continue to make my contribution to the sport.” He said.

While watching the Olympics the other night, I came across an unbelievable sight. It was not a gold medal, nor a world record broken, but a show of someone's strong determination to win.

The event was a swimming and started with only three men on the blocks. For one reason or another, two of them made mistake when they started, so they were kicked out. That would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race against, even though the time on the clock is what's important.

I watch the man jump into the water and knew right away that something was wrong. Now I'm not an expert swimmer but I do know a good jump from a poor one, and this was not exactly medal quality. When he was swimming, the crowd started to laugh. Clearly this man was not a medal competitor.

      I listened to the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man that was clearly having a hard time. Finally he made his turn to start back. He tried his best, but clearly he was exhausted.

       But when they saw the man keeping on trying , they stopped laughing and beginning to cheer. Some even to stand and say: “Come , you can do it!” and “ Go for it！”

       A few minutes later ,this young man finally finished his race. The crowd went wild. You would have thought that he had won the gold, and he should have. Even though he recorded one of the slowest times in Olympic history, this man gave more heart than any of the other competitors.

       Just a short year ago, he had never swam, let alone raced. His country had been asked to Sydney as manners.

       In a competition where players remove their silver medals feeling they have somehow been cheated out of gold, or when they act so proudly in front of their competitors, it is nice to watch this game.

       A man that gave his all-knowing that he had no chance, but competed because of the spirit of the games.

    On the first evening, the three of us were tired after walking for about eight hours. We soon fell asleep. In the morning, I was surprised to find the bag of food had been open.

    “Bears,” said Joe, “we should hang the food in a tree tonight.”

    Later that day we stopped in a beautiful field by a river. We put up the tent and fell asleep. During the night the bears came again. This time they took the food from the tree.

    “Bears can climb trees. They can smell food from a long way away,” said Ben.

    “We must keep the camp clean. Bears must think our rubbish is food,” I said. “And we should make lots of noise, too. If they know where we are, they may not come any closer,” said Joe.

    “But if you see a bear,” said Ben, “you mustn't make any sudden moves or make a sound, and you mustn't run either. No one can run faster in the forest than a bear. And remember we don't have a gun to keep us safe.” That night, we went to sleep ... or we tried to.

    The next day, while the others were resting, I went for a walk in the forest. Suddenly, I saw a baby bear playing with some sticks and stones. He looked so soft and friendly, and I thought, “If I reach out, I can just touch him.”

    There was a loud noise behind me.

    I didn't dare to move, not even turn my head. There was another loud noise. The baby bear looked up, and ran towards me. I turned pale and he ran past me into the woods.

    I couldn't turn round until a few minutes later. Then I saw the baby bear and his huge mother walking away.

    I ran back to my friends. I have never run so fast.

    For the next 10 days, every time there was sudden noise, my blood went cold.

    Many people have heard of Peter Dinklage from his role in the popular TV drama Game of Thrones. But few know his story. Peter Dinklage is only 135 cm tall. His life shows that a small man can have a great effect(影响).

    Dinklage was born with dwarfism(侏儒症). As he grew up, his legs and arms stopped growing, but his head kept becoming bigger.

    At first, Dinklage's look brought himself much trouble. Other boys often made fun of him. Dinklage felt sad but he never gave up on himself. When he was in the fifth grade, he played his first role in a school play. The show was successful. That made him want to be an actor. After high school, Dinklage went to Bennington College to study acting. There his teachers and students helped him turn his look into his advantage(优势). From then on, he began to act in films and TV dramas.

    Many people think of Dinklage as a spokesman for people with dwarfism, but Dinklage doesn't think so. He says, "Everyone is different. Just because I'm OK with it, I can't preach(传道)how to be OK with it."
