Ⅱ.阅读理解
  Kobe Bryant, one of the greatest basketball players of all time, died in a helicopter crash(坠机) with his daughter on Sunday, January 26, 2020. Experts are still trying to learn what caused the crash, which killed nine people in all.
Mr Bryant, who was 41, played for the Los Angeles Lakers for 20 years, joining the team at age 17, straight out of high school.
During his time with Lakers, Mr Bryant led the team to five national championships. The team won three in a row in 2000, 2001, and 2002, and came back to win the NBA title again in 2009 and 2010.
Mr Bryant spent his early school years in Italy, where his father was a professional basketball player. Mr Bryant spoke both Italian and Spanish. His family moved back to the US when Mr Bryant was in high school, where his performance on the court(球场) caused excitement and got attention. He played and practiced hard, with the goal of becoming even better than his boyhood hero, Michael Jordan.
Mr Bryant helped lead the US Olympic team to win gold in 2008 and 2012.
In 2016, Mr Bryant retired(退休), following a string of injuries. During his time with the Lakers, Mr Bryant had worn the numbers 8 and 24. When he retired, the Lakers said those numbers wouldn't be used again.
After he retired, Mr Bryant focused on his family—his wife Vanessa, and their four daughters.
He took up new activities, too. He started a company that produced books and movies. In 2018, Mr Bryant's short animated film(动画电影) Dear Basketball won an Oscar—an important movie award.
Mr Bryant also set up basketball camps and programs for kids, to help share his love of the game. Mr Bryant coached the team of his 13-year-old daughter Gianna. They were on their way to one of her games when the helicopter crashed.
Worldwide, Mr Bryant's death has caused great sadness. Some NBA players held onto the ball for 24 seconds as games started on the same Sunday. Doing that meant that their team lost the ball, but the players were doing it out of respect for Mr Bryan, who had worn the number 24.
