Chinese star Yao Ming has retired. Yao made it official Wednesday, telling a news conference that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30.
“I will formally end my career,’’ said Yao, who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets in 2002. Yao played eight seasons in the NBA.
“Today is an important day for me and holds a special meaning for both my basketball career and my future,’’ Yao said. “I had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture(斷裂) in my left foot for the third time at the end of last year. My past six months were a painful wait. I have been thinking about my future over and over. Today I am announcing a personal decision, ending my career as a basketball player and officially retire. But one door is closing and another one is opening.’’
Yao said he would return to work with his former Chinese team, the Shanghai Sharks, with the possibility of becoming general manager. He already owns the club and wants to contribute more. “My playing career started with the club. I hope I can do something for it,’’ Yao said.
He later appeared with his family on the stage to the applause and cheers of the crowd. He thanked a lot of people — his family, former coaches, even players like Shaquille O’Neal — “for making me a better player.’’
Rockets general manager Daryl Morey was among those attending the farewell(告別) conference Wednesday. Morey made the long trip from Houston. Morey said 20 hours on planes was tiring but “I would be sorry if I wasn’t here.” “It’s a big moment,’’ Morey added. “Yao had a sense of humor, a great attitude and sense of responsibility. I hope we can continue his culture in the NBA.’’【小題1】

You might not have guessed it would happen. The whole basketball world has been shocked by it. Who would have thought the US Dream Basketball team would be knocked out of the World Basketball Championship and finish sixth --- on home soil?
“No doubt that we made history, although it wasn’t the type of history we wanted to make,” said US forward(前鋒) Ben Wallace.
There were dozens of reasons for the failure of the US team: the team hardly practiced and was unfamiliar with the international rules and style of play; the dunk(扣籃) has become so important in the US game that there is less emphasis on learning the basics of playing basketball; the gap is narrowing between US basketball and the rest of the world.
Another obvious, and disappointing fact is that the All-American Dream Team was not quite as dreamy as previous(先前的) US teams. While all other countries brought their best, there were no American superstars that everyone was hoping to see: Shaquille O’Neal or Kobe Bryant.
The problem seems to be how to make the US players want to represent their country.
How can one take a group of multimillionaire basketball players and tell them that beating the Algerian Basketball National Team is a good way to spend part of their August and September?
George Karl, the coach of the US team said, “A loss by the US team sounds like a good way to do it.”
Yugoslavia won the competition on September 8th.
1. When Ben Wallace said “No doubt that we made history, although it was not the type of history we wanted to make”, he meant ____________.
A. the American basketball team won the World Basketball Championship for the first time in history
B. the American basketball team lost the World Basketball Championship for the first time in history
C. the All-American Dream Team lost the World Basketball Championship for the first time in history
D. the dreaming All-American Team lost the World Basketball Championship for the first time in history
2. Which team won championship this time?
A. the US team B. the Yugoslavian Team
C. the Algerian team D. not mentioned
3. All the following things account for the failure of the US team except the one that __________.
A. the US players didn’t know the basics of playing basketball
B. the US players didn’t do team work well
C. this US Dream Team wasn’t as well organized as the former ones
D. the US players didn’t care much about whether they would win or not
4. The passage doesn’t say so directly, but we can conclude from it that __________.
A. the US basketball has fallen behind that in some parts of the world
B. practice is needed for good teamwork no matter how well each player plays
C. the millionaire players of the US team were interested in beating the Algerian team
D. the US team just won the sixth place this time

The NBA’s version of the Ming Dynasty is done. After helping pro basketball gain a foothold in the world’s most populous market, Chinese star Yao Ming has retired.
Yao made it official Wednesday, telling a news conference that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30.
“I will formally end my career,” said Yao, who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets in 2002. Yao played eight seasons in the NBA.
“Today is an important day for me and holds a special meaning for both my basketball career and my future,” Yao said. “I had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture (斷裂) in my left foot for the third time at the end of last year. My past six months were a painful wait. I have been thinking about my future over and over. Today I am announcing a personal decision, ending my career as a basketball player and officially retire. But one door is closing and another one is opening.”
Yao said he would return to work with his former Chinese team, the Shanghai Sharks, with the possibility of becoming general manager. He already owns the club and wants to contribute more.
