10、1987年，乔丹成为仅有的第二个在一个赛季中得分超过3 000的球员。3But there_is_no_doubt_that he deserves the title “outstanding player of his generation”但是毫无疑问，他无愧于“一代杰出球员”这一称号。课文预读译文助读迈克尔乔丹篮坛超人在20世纪90年代，迈克尔乔丹可能是世界上最著名的运动员。他是NBA的顶尖得分手，于1984到1993年间效力于芝加哥公牛队。他曾五次被评为最有价值的球员。身着著名的23号球衣的迈克尔乔丹成了篮球运动史上最成功的球员。乔丹出生于纽约，在北卡罗莱纳州长大。在北卡罗莱纳大学上
11、了一年学之后，他加入了芝加哥公牛队。他以平均每场比赛28.2分的成绩，作为联赛中的得分王之一结束了第一个赛季(19841985)。1987年，乔丹成为仅有的第二个在一个赛季中得分超过3 000分的球员。连续七个赛季(19871993)，他都是NBA的得分王。这期间，他每场比赛的平均得分都超过了30分。有了他(的参与)，公牛队在1991年首度获得NBA冠军。这段时间里，捷报频传，1992年和1993年他们蝉联了冠军。乔丹也是人称“梦之队”的美国奥林匹克篮球队的成员，这支球队在1992年西班牙巴塞罗那奥运会上夺取了金牌。19931994赛季之前乔丹退役，举世震惊，但后来他又回到了芝加哥公牛队，并和
12、队友们一起在1996到1998年间又获得了三次冠军。2003年，40岁的乔丹最终退出体坛，此前他还曾效力于华盛顿奇才队。数百万球迷都钦佩乔丹的运动才能、动力和自信心。他们可以讲述很多关于迈克尔乔丹的传奇故事，例如一次他在比赛的关键时刻拯救了公牛队，从而避免打成平局。他走向罚球线，罚球两次。每次他都把球直接投进了篮筐并且每次都是闭着眼睛投进的。离开篮坛后，迈克尔乔丹开了一家自己的牛排馆，因为他很爱吃牛排。在和著名的卡通人物兔八哥一起演出的影片空中大灌篮中，他也获得了成功！对于这位世界上最优秀的球员，只有一个词能形容他了不起！高跷威尔特神力之巅！迈克尔乔丹是第二个在一个赛季中得分超过3 000分的
13、球员，但第一个人是威尔特张伯伦。1936年8月21日张伯伦出生于费城，他是家里11个孩子中唯一一个长得很高的。他的父亲威廉在造船厂干活，母亲奥莉维娅是一个清洁工。张伯伦小时候有各种各样的健康问题。他10岁时得过肺炎，差点死掉。张伯伦是在一整个赛季中唯一一个平均每场比赛得分超过50分的NBA球员。曾几何时，张伯伦比其他所有球员都优秀得多，以至于他们改变了比赛规则来试图限制他！19591960赛季间，这位篮球巨人加盟NBA费城勇士队并立即获得成功。在为四个不同球队效力的14个赛季中，张伯伦四次被评为联赛中最有价值的球员。1962年3月2日，他单场比赛得了100分迄今为止还没有人做到这样！最后的比分
14、是勇士队169分对纽约尼克斯队147分！在加盟洛杉矶湖人队度过五个令人惊奇的赛季后，威尔特结束了他的职业生涯。一直到退役，威尔特还保持多项NBA纪录：118次比赛得分50或50多，32次得分60或60多。威尔特张伯伦比迈克尔乔丹更优秀吗？谁知道呢？但是毫无疑问，他无愧于“一代杰出球员”这一称号。课文理解Step Fast reading1The text mainly talks about _.AMichael JordanHead and Shoulders Above the RestBWilt Chamberlainthe Tower of PowerCtwo famous playe
