【推荐2】Rick Hoyt was born in 1962 to Dick and Judy Hoyt. He is in a wheelchair because he’s got cerebral palsy (小儿麻瘦症). As a result, Rick couldn’t walk or speak. There was no chance of Rick recovering, and little hope for Rick to live a “normal” life.
However, with great effort, Rick learned to write his thoughts using a special computer. When Rick was 15, he communicated to his dad that he wanted to take part in a five-mile running race for charity. Dick was not a runner but agreed to push Rick in his wheelchair. That night, Rick told his father, “Dad, when I’m running, it feels like I’m not handicapped.”
After high school, Rick went to Boston University, and he graduated with a degree in Special Education in 1993. Rick is a happy and successful man; he has a job at the University of Boston, and he works in computer studies. Rick loves sports too, and he takes part in marathons and triathlons (铁人三项运动).
Triathlons? In the triathlon, people swim 4 kilometers, cycle 180 kilometers and then run a 42- kilometer marathon. Rick can^ run, cycle or swim because he’s in a wheelchair. So how can he take part in a triathlon?
Rick can take part because he does it with his father, Dick Hoyt. In the running, his father pushes him in his wheelchair. In the swimming, Rick lies in a small boat and Dick swims and pulls him. And in the cycling, Rick sits in a special seat on the front of Dick’s bike. Together, they are “Team Hoyt”.
Of course, Team Hoyt never wins the race. The winner of a triathlon usually finishes in about nine hours. The Hoyts usually take about 14 or 15 hours. “That’s right.” says Dick. “Rick and I never win. But we think that we always win.”
Dick Hoyt, who became a familiar sight pushing his son Rick in a wheelchair at road races around the country, especially the Boston Marathon, died on Wednesday at his home in Holland, Mass. He was 80.
Rick was once asked, if he could give his father one thing, what would it be? Rick responded, “The thing I’d most like doing for my dad is that ____________.”

【推荐3】Aron just moved to a big city to start a new job. It didn’t take long for Aron to feel the stress (压力) of city life. The people, the noise, his heavy work… these all made him feel like giving up.
But one day, as Aron was on his way to work, he saw a homeless man on the street. He didn’t see a homeless person before. He stopped and had a short talk with him. Then he opened up about his life and complained (抱怨) about the problems he was facing. The man patiently (耐心地) listened all the time.
“I was wondering… how did you end up homeless?” Aron asked.
“I was in a war (战争). I saw lots of death. I got badly hurt and couldn’t find a job when I came home. Unluckily, my wife decided to leave me. I lost everything. Life hurt me so much,” the man said.
“But I’m thankful for every day for I’m alive. My life might be hard sometimes, but when I see something as simple as sleeping. I remember that even when life hurts, life means a lot.”

【推荐2】When it comes to Chinese basketball, people may talk about Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian and so on. Do you know Yang Liwei and Li Meng? They just led Team China to complete an amazing tournament and win the silver in the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup 2022.
In the first stage(赛段), Team China played against Team South Korea and the other four teams in Group A. With hard fighting, the ladies beat all the competitors except the United States and reached the next stage. After winning two hard-won victories over France and Australia, they got one step closer to the gold. In the final game, they fought against the United States again, got the 86-61 loss, and finally finished in the top three at a World Cup for the first time since 1994. People in China cheered for them and names like Han Xu and Li Yueru were more widely known in China.
Women basketball players face many challenges in their lives. Basketball fans usually choose to watch men’s games instead of women’s. Women basketball players are often paid much less. Also, they have some problems about education and finding a job after their retirement(退役).

Many basketball experts think they are improving and becoming a powerful force in the world. Behind the honor and praise are hard work and difficulties. They need more attention from all of us.
