Not just his height, his skill, his speed and his ability to score winning baskets. He was in every way a superstar.The

10、secret of his success on the court was always this-“ Practice makes perfect.” When he was already famous and the top player in the country , he still went onto the court before a game and practiced hard for up to an hour. He practiced a single move and shot maybe thirty or forty times. He scored wit

11、h every shot. Then he practiced a move again and again and again. He didnt stop practice until it was perfect, because it was already perfect the first time. He practiced until 40 out of 40 shots were perfect and it was impossible for him to miss that shot.Jordan always wanted to win. At college, a

17、n oversupply of college trained workers and that this oversupply is increasing. Already there is an overabundance of teacher, engineers, physicists and other specialists. Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every year to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that are not there. T

18、he result is that graduates can not enter the professions for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree. These “temporary” jobs have a habit of becoming permanent.On the other hand, there is a tremendous need for skilled workers of all sorts: carpente

19、rs, electricians, mechanics and TV repairmen. These people have more work than they can handle and their annual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates.

24、granted, we often dont clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a fewfor example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being to

25、gether, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy（亲密）between them and the reasons for their shared interest vary enormously. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of primary importance

26、, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background. Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests in commonthey often talk abou
