best player on their ninth- grade team.



The summer after ninth grade, Jordan and Smith both went to the Pop Herring
’
s basketball
camp to run for(
竞选
) the high school team. All the other students looked much stronger than
Jordan, because they were two or three years older than him.



To Smith, it was quite clear that Jordan was better than him. But on that day the result were

“

”
Fred Lynch, a coach said later,
“
But we thought the jayvee(
学

”
Jordan became the best player on the jayvee that
year. There were matches
in
which he could
get
forty scores. He was so
good that the jayvee
matches became quite popular.



Smith found that Jordan had been very competitive(
一心求胜的
) before he was cut, and after
that he seemed even more competitive than ever. His coaches found it, too.
“
One day, the jayvee
had a match. When I came into the gym, the match was just ending up. Their scores fell behind a
lot. All the other nine players had given up, but on kid still played very hard. It was Jordan, and I

Passage 3


Do you think your school could be the greenest school in the USA? If so, the IC Bus Company
wants to hear about it. The bus maker has started the nationwide competition to find America
’
s
greenest school and they need everyone
’
s help.



Students, parents and teachers from around the country are invited to send a 500-word report
that
explains
the
activities
their
schools
have
taken
to
help
protect
the
earth.
Activities
like
organizing an in- school recycling programme, planting a garden, and even turning off the lights
in an empty classroom are all ways that you and your classmates can be green.



Organizers hope the competition will encourage kids and adults to think about how they can
help save the earth. This programme can help students, teachers and parents learn that they can
make greener choices themselves.



Winners will be announced after Earth Day. Then the public will be able to vote for(
投票
)
report
that
best
stands
for
America
’
s
greenest
school.
They
winner
will
get
$$5,000.
Winning
teachers will receive $$3,000 to use toward classroom materials.



But the money won
’
t be the only green prize. The winning school will also receive a
“
green
”

school bus for the IC Bus Company. These buses run on a mix(
混合体
) of electricity and gas(
气
体
). They create less pollution than regular buses.



Do you want to be greener, but don
’
t know where to start? Here are a few easy suggestions
from
Terra
Wellington.
Use
both
sides
of
the
paper.
Ask
your
teacher
if
you
can
print
your
homework
“
double-sided
”
, then paper use is cut in half. This reduces waste. If your classroom
has windows, turn off the lights and use natural light instead.
