新闻连结：http://www.polkonline.com/stories/010408/communitynews_McGrady.shtml McGrady names AHS a sister school for project By JASON MARTIN News Chief staff AUBURNDALE - NBA star Tracy McGrady was back in his hometown Thursday, speaking to the students at Auburndale High School about the humanitarian project he recently started. About 500 students were on hand as McGrady introduced AHS as the first "sister school" to a new school McGrady is helping to build in the African nation of Chad. T-Mac星期四回到家乡的Auburndale High School进行一场演讲。演讲内容大概是和 一些慈善计画有关系。T-Mac和大约500名学生介绍了他希望在非洲的查德盖一座姐妹校。 According to McGrady's Web site, he has been working with The Enough Project and the NBA to help educate people about the violence and deaths occurring in Chad and Darfur. 在T-Mac的官网中，可以知道他也曾经为NBA以及名为The Enough Project这个计画奉献 过。(注：http://www.t-mac.com/tmac/store/)去查德和达尔富尔教育人们有关暴力和 死亡的发生。 McGrady was a basketball star for the Bloodhounds in the mid-1990s. He left AHS before his junior season in 1996 to go to a prep school in North Carolina. He was a 1997 NBA Draft pick directly out of high school. 这段就介绍T-Mac，简单看看就好。 As part of the Thursday afternoon presentation, McGrady pledged $75,000 to help build the school and for supplies and training. 在星期四下午的介绍中，T-Mac保证要捐7万5美元去建立姐妹校以及供给和训练。 The students, who McGrady remarked were probably happy to be out of class, got to watch a documentary video on the Houston Rockets star's trip to Darfur. 那些学生，应该非常爽可以离开教室去看火箭球星的达尔富尔之旅的纪录片。 Also on hand were Auburndale High School Principal John Hill and Auburndale City Manager Bobby Green, who was representing the city. 同时出席的还有Auburndale High School的校长John Hill以及Auburndale城市的市长 Bobby Green。 "The city contributed $1,000 seed money to the high school to help them with the technology and community to help establish the sister school relationship and hopefully establish a sister city relationship," Green said. Green说：「市政府捐赠1000美金得种子基金给学校去帮助他们用科技和社群建立 起姐妹校关系，甚至希望能够建立起姐妹市。」 Green said he was excited to see a high-profile athlete giving back to his community. Green说他非常激动可以看到高知名度的运动员回到自己的家乡。 "You can look at box scores and tell what kind of athlete Tracy McGrady is," Green said. "The presentation and film he showed and the challenge that he left the students really shows what kind of person he is." Green说：「你可以看分数盒子然後知道T-Mac是怎样的一个运动员。他的介绍和影片以 及挑战真的让学生们了解他是怎样的一个人。」 Hill said having McGrady, who is well respected in the Auburndale community, speak on the subject really helps get the message across. Hill说能拥有像T-Mac这样子受尊重的球员来谈这样子的计画，真的帮忙很大。 "We had several students that talked to me at Christmas about what's going on there and expressed a desire to do something," Hill said. Hill说：「有好多学生在圣诞节和我聊有关那里的状况，以及说他们想做点事情。」 Also on hand was Omer Ismail, who used to live in Darfur. He has started the Darfur Peace and Development organization to help with the situation in his home land. 出席的人还有长期住在达尔富尔的Omer Ismail。他也开始了达尔富尔的和平和发展的 组织去帮忙他的老家。 After speaking to the students, McGrady had a question-and-answer session. 在和那些学生演讲後，T-Mac有个问与答的时间。 Hill said Thursday's presentation was just the beginning of an ongoing process. Hill说星期四的介绍只是一个开始。 "We're still going to be developing ideas and coming up with ways to make a difference," Hill said. "Some of the things that were mentioned were setting up communication system to talk to students in the camps, to raise funds to build the school and to buy textbook materials and train teachers." Hill说：「我们仍在发展不同的IDEAS和不同的方法去做些不同的事情，有些提到过的 事情被设计成交流系统在露营时去和学生聊，用基金建立学校和买教材和训练老师。」 Ismail said McGrady's speech and film really got through to the students. Ismail说T-Mac的演讲和影片让学生们着实地成长。 "I can see it in the eyes of these kids, who want to hear more stories and want to help," Ismail said. "He's trying to look a things beyond his community and himself. I think if we had more people like him, the world would be a better place." Ismail说：「我可以看看那些孩子们的眼睛，他们想要多听点故事以及想要去帮忙些事 情，T-Mac试着把事情看得比社区和自己更远。我想如果有多一点人像他，这世界会变 得更美好。」 注：照片在上面SMALLZCH大大的那篇XDDDDD ============================================================================== 这篇爆难的..有错请指教，谢谢。 其实只是希望和大家说T-Mac这段期间去做了些甚麽事情..。 -- 】 ▲ ▲ 【 “ ～ █████ █◣ ◢█ ◢██◣ ◢██◣ ║ ██ ║◢ ◣◢ ◣ ◤ █ ◥ █◥◣◢◤█ █ █ █ ▄ ║ █ ║ ◥██◤ █ █ ◥◤ █ █ █ █ ║ ▊ ║ ◢◥◤◣？ █ █▄ █ █ █ ██▅█ █ ║ █ ║ ◥▄◤ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ ▆ ║ ██ ║ ◤ ι ██ █ ◥◤ █ █ █ ◥██◤ψaassd --
