A
“Some day, there’ll be no Americans left in the NBA,” said 12
-year-old Xing Tao, who joined
his school team two weeks ago after watching Yao Ming in a televised NBA game, “The players
will all be Chinese, like Yao.”
To
China,
Yao
is
a
home-
grown
superstar
who
helped
make
the
world’s
first
basketball
league
closer
to
Chinese
players.
To
the
NBA,
the
2.23-meter
center
offers
an
opening
of
a
different sort into the world’s largest new market. Yao’s NBA first appearance against the Ind
iana
Pacers in October reached 287 million families in the US. That game might have been a bit of a
letdown
to Yao’s fans: He played just 11 of the 48 minutes, had two rebounds(
篮板
) and got no
points. Comparing that with his performance on December 19, also against Indiana, Yao won 29
points
and
10
rebounds.
“This
was
one
of
the
most
exciting
games
I’ve
had,”
Yao
said
after
Houston’s 95
-83 victory. The NBA has to be excited about his on- count success. In all his games,
he’s averaging 12.7 points and 7.7 rebounds, quite good for a new star. “Yao Ming has brought the
NBA closer to the Chinese,” said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching, “That makes the dream
seem practical for other peop
le in China and proud to be Chinese.”
The 22-year-
old Yao is not the country’s first player in the NBA: Wang Zhizhi broke down
the Dallas Mavericks in November 2003. But Yao’s combination of modesty
（谦虚）
and skills
make him a favorite back home.

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After
all, you probably sing when you are happy.
Some
scientists
believe
that
birds
do
sing
some
of
the
time
just
because
they
are
happy.
However,
they
sing
most
of
the
time
for
a
very
different
reason.
Their
singing
is
actually
a
warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “
territory
” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male,
claims (
声称
) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same
species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.
If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be
enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does
the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (
筑巢
) season. So
he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call
a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
36.
Some scientists believe that most of th
e time bird’s singing is actually ________.
A
．
an expression of happiness
B.
a way of warning
C.
an expression of anger
D.
a way of greeting
37.
What is a bird’s “territory”
？
A.
A place where families of other species are not accepted.
B.
A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
C.
An area for which birds fight against each other.
D.
An area which a bird considers to be its own.
38.
Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
