Ⅱ. Read and complete the tasks.
No one ever thought that Debbie Black could be a basketball player. People said she was too short, but Debbie wouldn't let that stop her dream.
However, in high school and later in college, school team coaches refused her because she was too short. Debbie found them and showed how well she played. Then the coaches changed their minds. Soon people noticed the great basketball player.
In 1988, Debbie wanted to play on the US Olympic team, but she didn't make it. What's worse, Debbie couldn't find a job as a basketball player. For the first time, she thought, "Can hard work really help?" However, she didn't want to give up.
Luckily, she found a job in Australia in 1989. Soon she became a big star. Seven years later, a great chance came to her. Debbie flew back to the US and tried out for a team. After seeing her play, the coach in Colorado said, "Debbie is the best player I've ever seen." He hired (雇用) her for the team. Soon she was a favourite with the fans and also a two-time All-Star.
Debbie Black often tells others to follow their dreams. "Don't let people tell you that you can't do something. Always believe in yourself. You can do anything if you try hard enough."
