Question

This year, who “entertained us, challenged us and changed our world”? Absolutely(毫無疑問地), Jeremy Lin, an Asian-American NBA rising star, is one of those people. On April 18, TIME Magazine named him one of 2012’s Most Influential People in the World.
Lin, 23, is not just a good basketball player, but also a graduate of Harvard University, one of the best universities in the world.

“Lin has broken the idea that one can’t be a world-class athlete on the court and an excellent student off the court at the same time.” US Education Secretary Arne Duncan wrote in the TIME article about Lin.
At 191cm, Lin isn’t especially strong, compared with other point guards (組織后衛(wèi)) in the team. What makes Lin stand out from other players is his hard work and never-give-up spirit.
“I know how the team works. I may not get an opportunity, but I’m just going to put it all into this and see what happens.” Lin once said. He kept arriving early, leaving late, practicing hard and learning from other experienced players. Finally, when his opportunity came, he started to shine.
“He earned(賺得) it.” Duncan said. “He lives the right way, and he plays the right way. He works hard and stays modest. He sets a good example for young people today. ”
