[听力文本资源] The fact that you haven’t heard of Chris Paul doesn’t bother him. His whole life has taught him that there are more important things than basketball. During one high school game, Paul scored 61 points in honour of his grandfather, who, only a few days earlier, was murdered; one point for every year his grandfather lived. When Paul reached the 61-point mark, he intentionally missed a free throw, and then took himself out of the game even though the state scoring record of 69 points was well within reach. Paul left university after his sophomore year and entered the NBA. He was drafted by the New Orleans Hornets. At the end of his first season he was voted the NBA’s new player of the year. In 2005, a hurricane destroyed New Orleans. The Hornets were forced to play most of their games in another city. Seeing the tragedy first-hand and watching the city try to rebuild has put basketball into focus for the Hornets players. Paul, whose nickname is CP3, established the CP3 Foundation in 2005. In 2006 he received the NBA’s Community Assist Award, for outstanding contributions to his community. This season the Hornets are back in New Orleans full-time. Every time the Hornets win, it is like New Orleans wins a little too. If they keep their success it may ease some of the pain that still remains in the city. And people will also start loving Chris Paul.[听力文本资源]1. [听力文本资源] Why did Paul try to score 61 points?
