At the start of the season, our two star __________, Yang Hua and Xiao Ping _________ of getting 30 points each in every game. They didn’t manage that, but they _________ about 25 each.

When the game was over, everyone jumped out of their seats and _______ for me; they wanted me to sign their programmes. My pen _________ because I had to write fast.

1. Information about Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain
Class, are you familiar with Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain? Here is a poster to introduce the two star players in the USA. Read it and complete Exercise 1.
2. Since you have known something about the two basketball players, who would like to compare them in different aspects?
Step 4: While you read
1. Fast reading for general ideas of the text
Shall we get the details of the two famous basketball players? As we have known, they are outstanding and are well thought of in the history of basketball. Read the two titles and they are meaningful. “Michael Jordan--- Head and Shoulder Above the Rest”. Look at yourself, and your head and shoulder are always above the rest of the other parts of your body. It means somebody is much better than others. “Wilt the Stilt --- the Tower of Power” Class, have you ever seen people walk on stilts in the Spring Festival? They are taller than people who don’t. As we know, Chamberlain was even
19 centimeters taller than Jordan. He was not only tall but also full of power and magic on the basketball court.
Comprehension—understanding what you are reading—is important. To read in thought groups is an easy, yet effective, way of improving reading comprehension. (Divide the whole class into two groups) Group A read the first passage about Jordan and group B read the other. And then introduce the basketball player to each other by using the information of the text. (a form of finding topic sentence or general idea of each paragraph)
Now read the recording of the text. Pay attention to the details while listening and reading.
