Basketball players are usually very tall. Because they need to put the ball into the basket. Other sports players may be shorter than them.
Short people often have better balance (平衡) than tall people, so they don't fall over very often. In some sports, the players must have good balance, for example, table tennis, they don't need to have long legs to run fast! Some of the fast runners in the world are not very tall. Some people are tall and some are short. The tallest man in the world is 2.41 meters tall. Today young people in many countries grow taller than their parents.This is because they eat better than their parents. Good food can help children grow.

K.L. Rothey, 71, from the United States, a retired lawyer (退休律师)
Rothey has given himself the Chinese name of Luqi or “roadside beggar (乞丐)”. In his eyes, beggars are doing important work—collecting rubbish. What they do is not dirty.
Rothey first visited China in 1984 and soon he became interested in Chinese culture. Married to a Chinese woman, he lived in Huangshi. Many people know him because he often shows up in the street collecting rubbish. “Huangshi is my home so I hope it becomes cleaner and more beautiful,” says Rothey. He has also organized volunteers to collect rubbish in other cities, including Wuhan.
Jill Robinson, 50, from Britain, founder (创立者) and CEO of Animals Asia Foundation.
She has been working for nearly 20 years to stop people from getting the bile (胆汁) from moon bears.She began working for the International Fund for Animal Welfare in Hong Kong in the mid-1980s. A business trip to a bear farm in 1993 changed her life. She saw so many moon bears killed by people. She said she would be back to set them free.
In 1998, she set up the Animal Foundation. In July 2000, the foundation agreed to free 500 farmed moon bears. In 2002, the Moon Bear Rescue (救援) Center was set up in Chengdu.
“As much as we save them, they save us. These bears save us every day and they teach us to be better people,” Robinson says.
