As good as it gets It􀆳s rare to see a person inspire a new word. But that􀆳s what Chinese volleyball superstar Zhu Ting has accomplished. A word “ZHUperb” has been invented to describe the 24-year-old player by her fans. Her outstanding scoring performances won her the honor of Best Outside Hitter at 2016􀆳s championship and the 11th Most Valuable Player award of her professional career. At a young age, Zhu is captain of China women􀆳s national volleyball team. But it hasn􀆳t been easy for Zhu to get to where she is today. Born to a farming family, Zhu got a hard-won chance to attend a local sports school at the age of 13. With her father􀆳s encouragement, she made progress week on week. She quickly moved to the national youth team. At the beginning, due to her 1. 98-meter height,Zhu found it difficult to move fast and hold her weight on her feet. But Lang Ping, her coach, encouraged her to take advantage of her height. She trained herself to jump high to smash the ball. Now she treats her height as an aspect of her physical strength. Zhu still works up a sweat during training. “ Hard work and talent are equally important. I􀆳ll move forward step by step,” she said. 朱婷是国内排球界新一代的领军人 物。 她在球场上的绝对实力,使外媒专门 为她发明了一个新词:ZHUperb。 【知识点击】 1. accomplish v. 实现;获得 2. professional adj. 职业的 3. hard-won 难得的 4. week on week 一周一周地 5. take advantage of 利用 6. smash the ball 扣球 7. work up a sweat 大汗淋漓 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 􀪋 075 Section Ⅰ　 Start
