解析教材
THE ROAD TO SUCCESS
Near the small town of Grottoes,Virginia,a narrow dirt road goes from the house of Stephen Curry's grandfather to the woods nearby.A far cry from the bright lights and shiny courts of the National Basketball Association (NBA),it was along this road that Stephen's grandfather built a simple basket by attaching a piece of plastic to a telephone pole(1).
通往成功的道路
在弗吉尼亚州的格罗托斯小镇附近,一条狭窄的土路从斯蒂芬·库里祖父的家一直通向附近的树林。正是沿着这条路,斯蒂芬的祖父在电线杆上绑了一块塑料,做成了一个简易的篮筐,这与美国职业篮球联赛(NBA)赛场上明亮的灯光和闪亮的球场大不相同。
【助读点拨】
(1)此处是一个强调句,强调状语along this road。
Like his father,basketball star Dell Curry,Stephen spent many childhood hours playing on this muddy basketball court. He probably didn't realise it at the time,but it was where he learnt to be creative and flexible as a player. You see,with every shot,the weak plastic backboard gave way.The bumps and rocks that lined the road under the basket caused the ball to bounce in all directions. Knowing where the ball would go(2) wasn't easy. He had to adjust his own playing style as a result. Shooting with great accuracy was another thing he learnt.Only shots perfectly aimed at its centre went into the heavy,thick basket.In this way,practising day in and day out helped Stephen sharpen his skills.
像他的父亲——篮球明星戴尔·库里一样,斯蒂芬花了许多童年时间在这个泥泞的篮球场上打球。他当时可能还没有意识到这一点,但在那里他学会了作为一名球员要有创造力和灵活性。你看,每一次投篮,脆弱的塑料篮板都会向下垮。篮筐下道路两旁的凸块和石头导致球向四面八方反弹。知道球会去哪里并不容易。因此他不得不调整自己的打球风格。精准投篮是他学会做的另一件事。只有完全瞄准篮筐中心的球才能投进又重又厚的篮筐。就这样,日复一日的练习帮助斯蒂芬提高了他的球技。
【助读点拨】
(2)Knowing where the ball would go是动词-ing形式在句中作主语,where引导的是宾语从句。
Despite his father's successful career,Stephen was thought by many people,including his high school teammates and coaches,to be too short,too thin and too weak to follow in his father's footsteps. But Stephen carried on. Playing basketball was his dream. He would not give up.He finally ended up playing college ball at a small,little-known school,Davidson College,not too far from where he lived. His creativity and perseverance made him Davidson's star player.
Selected for the NBA in 2009(3),Stephen joined the Golden State Warriors. He performed beyond everyone's expectations with his accurate shooting and continuous efforts.In 2015,Stephen won his first NBA championship,and he led the Warriors to their first championship since 1975.
虽然他的父亲事业有成,但很多人,包括他的高中队友和教练,都认为斯蒂芬太矮、太瘦、太弱,无法继承他父亲的事业。但是斯蒂芬继续坚持。打篮球是他的梦想。他是不会放弃的。他最终在一所小而且没什么名气的学校——戴维森学院里打大学篮球赛,这所学校离他住的地方不远。他的创造力和毅力使他成为戴维森的明星球员。
2009年入选NBA,斯蒂芬加入了金州勇士队。凭借精准的投篮和不断的努力,他的表现超出每个人的期望。2015年,斯蒂芬赢得了他的第一个NBA总冠军,他带领勇士队获得了自1975年以来的第一个总冠军。
【助读点拨】
(3)Selected for the NBA in 2009为动词-ed形式在句中作状语。
After receiving the Most Valuable Player award for two years in a row,Stephen explained his philosophy,“I never really set out to change the game...What I wanted to do was just be myself...I know it inspires a lot of the next generation,a lot of people who love the game of basketball(4) to value the skill of it,value the fact that you can work every single day to get better.You've got to be able to put in the time and the work.That's how I got here.That's how I continue to get better every single day.” Inspiring others to believe in themselves, Stephen Curry is living proof that what other people think of you does not have to influence what you become. Through self-belief,hard work,perseverance and some help from an old hoop,he has shown that anything is possible.
在连续两年获得“最有价值球员奖”后,斯蒂芬解释了他的人生观:“我从来没有真正想过改变比赛……我想做的只是做我自己……我知道这激励了很多下一代,激励了很多热爱篮球运动的人去重视篮球的技术,重视这样一个事实:你可以每天都努力变得更好。你必须能够投入时间和努力。我就是这样过来的。我就是这样每天不断进步的。”鼓励别人相信自己,斯蒂芬·库里是活生生的证明:别人对你的看法并不一定会影响你成为什么样的人。通过自信、努力、毅力和一个旧篮圈的帮助,他证明了一切皆有可能。

知识点13 too...to...
(P26)Despite his father's successful career, Stephen was thought by many people, including his high school teammates and coaches, to be too short, too thin and too weak to follow in his father's footsteps.虽然他的父亲事业有成,但很多人,包括他的高中队友和教练,都认为斯蒂芬太矮、太瘦、太弱,无法继承他父亲的事业。
知识拓展
在本句中to be too short, too thin and too weak to follow 为“too+adj./adv.+ to do sth”结构,意为“太……而不能……”。这时too后面的形容词或副词往往是表示性质或特征的词。
(1)“too+ adj.+ to do sth”结构除了表示否定意义外,还可以表示肯定意义。这时too后面常常跟表示心情、态度或倾向性方面的形容词,如anxious、eager、 easy、 glad、 happy、 pleased、 ready、 willing等,此时too的意思是“十分;非常;很”。
