（三）
Hi
，<
/p>
everyone
．
I'm
Y
ao Ming
．
I left
China for the first time in 1997 to go to the Nick
camp in
Paris
．
That's
where
I
met
my
first
NBA
star
，
Tim
Hardaway
，
who
was
one
of
the
camp
counselo
rs(
顾问
)
．
He looked like the rest of us
—
two
hands
，
two
legs
，
one head
—
but he was
quicker than anybody I'd ever
seen
，
especially the way he
played with the ball
．
His
footwork
，
his
hands
—
move quickly
．
He
would challenge everyone to play one-on-one until
he was too tired
to move an
amendment
．
I don't remember
who the best player in camp was because I didn't
know
what good basketball was
then
．
There were eighty-five
players at the camp
，
and I
wore number
85
．
I
wasn't worried about how good Hardaway was because
at that time I was just thinking I'd
play
in
the
Chinese
Basketball
Association(CBA)
．
I
didn't
think
I'd
see
anyone
like
Hardaway
again
．
The trip to Paris made a big impression
on me
．
I was there for only
six days
，
but I learned a
lot
—
not
just
about
basketball
，
but
maybe
about
myself
and
my
place
in
the
world
of
basketball
．
I
found out there were a lot of great players
outside China and how good a player could
be
．
I knew for the
first time where I stood among the best young
players in the world
．
I
thought
，
but I'm
not that bad
．
When I went to
Paris
，
I learned what was
possible
．
There
was no way to really know that until I
left China

Popular Science and Modern Technology
科普知识与现代技术
There
have been many great inventions or things that
changed the way we live
．
The
first
great invention was the one that
is still very important today
—
the
wheel
．
This made it easier to
carry heavy things and to travel long
distance
．
For
hundreds
of
years
after
that
there
were
few
inventions
that
as
much
effect
as
the
wheel
．
Then in the
early 1800s the world started to
change
．
There was little
unknown land left in
the
world
．
People didn't have to
explore much any more
．
They
began to work instead to make life
better
．
In the second half of the 19th century
many great inventions were
made
．
Among them were
the camera
，
the
light and the radio
．
These
all play a big part in our daily life
today
．
The
first part of the 20th century saw more great
inventions
．
The helicopter in
1909
，
movies
with
sound in 1926
，
the computer
in 1928
，
jet planes in
1930
．
This was also a time
when a new
material was first
made
．
Nylon came out in
1935
．
It changed the kind of
clothes people wore
．
The middle part of the 20th century
brought new ways to help people get over
diseases
．
They
worked very
well
．
They made people
healthier and allowed them to live
longer
．
By the 1960s most
people could expect to live to be at
least 60
．
By
this
time
most
people
in
developed
countries
had
a
very
good
life
．
Of
course
new
inventions continued to be
made
．
But man now had a
desire(
渴望
) to explore
again
．
The earth was
