  • Sports Events Around the World Hit by Coronavirus Pandemic CONCACAF Suspends All Competitions
    18 Sports Monday, April 13, 2020 Booker sweeps Photo of the Day Ayton in NBA 2K final MILWAUKEE: Devin Booker swept fellow Phoenix Suns teammate Deandre Ayton on Saturday night to claim the title at the first-ever NBA 2K Players Tournament. Booker won the first two games of a best-of-three final series, beating Ayton without playing as the Los Angeles Lakers, who are generally regarded as the best team in the game. Playing as the Houston Rockets, Booker took the first game 72-62 from Ayton, who used the Lakers. He won the second 74-62 while playing as the Denver Nuggets against Ayton’s Milwaukee Bucks. “Feels good, bro,” Booker said afterward. “It was a talented field. I said from the beginning, it was going to be me and De- andre in the championship. “... We’ve played in the past, and he’s definitely a gamer.” Booker, the fifth seed in the 16-player tournament, won $100,000 to donate to the coronavirus-relief charity of his choice. Ayton, the 10th seed, trailed by only four at halftime of the first game after hitting a buzzer beater with JaVale McGee. But Booker was red-hot from 3-point range throughout the game, hitting 13 of 23 attempts, and also got 30 points from his bench to close it out. In the second game, Booker pulled away after halftime, putting the exclamation point on the victory with a three-point play on a dunk by Paul Millsap with less than 90 seconds to go. Both finalists swept a member of the Los Angeles Clippers earlier Saturday in the semifinals, with Booker beating Mon- trezl Harrell and Ayton dispatching Patrick Beverley.

  • Snooker Superstar
    Snooker Superstar 1 Snooker Superstar 台球巨星 Star Profile – Ding Junhui 新星简介--丁俊辉 Read the text below and do the activity that follows. 阅读下面的短文，然后完成练习： If 2005 was the year that Ding Junhui exploded onto the international snooker scene, then 2006 could be the year he becomes a legend. Ding fulfilled his potential in a nail-biting confrontation with Steve Davis in the final of the prestigious UK Championship last December. He defeated the six-time world champion by 10 frames to 6 in a thrilling final at the Barbican Centre in York. In defeating Davis he has already secured a place in history as he is the first ever player from outside the British Isles to win the UK Championship. Having won his first prize in competitive snooker at the age of thirteen, Ding is unquestionably a precocious talent. It seems that he has now matured into a world-class player – “It was only a matter of time before he joined the world’s elite”, says Steve Davis. Ding’s talent has been developed by his father, Ding Wenjun who became aware of his son’s remarkable abilities when he was just eight years old. Ding Wenjun explains, “When I was playing with my friends, he was attracted by the colourful balls and would play by himself on another table for a whole day”. Many years of hard work and sacrifice followed as Ding’s father gave up his business and moved to Dongguan in order to find better training facilities for his son. Both father and son lived in cramped conditions, sharing a five- square-metre room adjoining the local snooker club.

  • The Football Association Challenge the Cup Final
    The Football Association Challenge The Cup Final Cup Final Facts • The match is widely known as just the Cup Final. • It is the last match in the Football Association (FA) Challenge Cup. • It has about 86 000 spectators and millions of TV viewers. • The trophy (winner’s cup) is only on loan to the winning side. • It is the oldest cup competition in the world, first played in the 1871 - 72 season. Who Can Enter? The Challenge Cup competition is open to any club in the top ten levels of the English Football League. Once clubs have registered to play, the tournament is organised into 12 randomly drawn rounds, followed by the semi-finals and finals. The higher ranked teams join the competition in later rounds when some of the lower ranked teams have been knocked out. What Do the Winners Receive? The winners of the final match receive the Football Association Cup, the FA Cup. It comes in three parts; the base, the cup and a lid. Over the years, there have been two designs of trophy and five cups have been made. The first cup, known as the ‘little tin idol’, was stolen in 1895 and never returned. An exact replica was made and used until 1910. From 1911, a new design was made. In 1992, another copy was made as the cup was wearing out from being handled, and another replacement was made in 2014. The cup is presented at the end of the match, giving the engraver just five minutes to engrave the winning team on the silver band on the base.

This was at a time when the suburbs of London were expanding and investors and entrepreneurs recognised the opportunities for housing and other related developments. In 1880 in an attempt to encourage population growth, the Metropolitan Railway Company extended its line from central London to Wembley Park and Harrow. The chairman of the company Sir Edward Watkin, aware of the potential of the area, purchased 280 acres of land near the station and so began his vision of a major tourist attraction.
