Assignment 3__Bolt

1.What do you think of Jeremy Lin? Is it good to have sports stars from different cultures?

Lin is so hot these days, espacially in Taiwan. Every day, you can see his news hit on the press. What I know about him is that he has a NBA dream and he dares to put it into practice. So I admire him, so I will notcie his play time and watch his news and Youtube.
Sure, sports stars from multi-culture may bring some good effects, like various tactics, baskitball concepts and skills.

2. The article says that people in Taiwan are very excited about Jeremy Lin. Who are some people in your country that people admire?

We call them "Glory of Taiwan". These people may be Yani Tseng who plays golf, Lu Yen-hsun who plays tennis, and Louis Liu who play magic shows. They are so famous in their categories but they are all modesty. I like them very much.

3. Who are some non-famous people you look up to?

The first person I thought is Lucifer Chu, who is the translator of "The Lord of the Rings". He earned a lot of money from the traslation of that book. But he spent all of it to set up OOPS (Opensource Opencourseware Prototype System). He hoped the people whose English are the basic level can get some opportunities to know the lectures in MIT. He did good things for social welfare, not for himself. So I look up to him and keep listening to his broadcast.

I like to watch his highlights on the news and on Youtube.

    Sure. Sports stars from other cultures could bring some good effects, like various strategies and basketball fundamentals.

    2. The article says that people in Taiwan are very excited about Jeremy Lin. Who are some people in your country that people admire?

    These people are known in Taiwan as, “The Glory of Taiwan.” These people include the golfer Yani Tseng, the tennis player Lu Yen Hsun, and the magician Louis Liu. They are all so famous, yet show great modesty. I like them very much.

    3. Who are some non-famous people you look up to?

    Lucifer Chu, who translated the famous trilogy called, "The Lord of the Rings". He is also famous for founding the OOPS organization. [Opensource Opencourseware Prototype Stystem]. His vision is that the people whose English are at the basic level can have the opportunity to understand the lectures in MIT. He didn’t do this for himself, but for the benefit of social welfare. I enjoy listening to his broadcast.
