“My dream has come true. I have always wanted to be a Grand Slam(大满贯)champion.” These are the words of Chinese tennis player Li Na after she became the first Asian woman to win a Grand Slam final in the French Open on June 4th,2011. And on January 25th,2014 she won the Grand Slam final in the Australian Open.
“People were saying I'm getting old, so this is a great success for such an old woman,”the 32-year-old girl joked.
Miss Li has a tattoo(纹身).She has dyed her hair many different colours. And, at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, she told her fans to “shut up”when they got too noisy in their support.
Li Na was born in Wuhan,she started to play tennis at the age of 6. She once recalled,“As a child, I felt sad because every day I had to wake up early to practise. After school I had to practise more. I didn't have time to play.”
Luckily,the strong girl didn't give up,thus making history for Chinese tennis time after time.
Now the new champion is already thinking about winning another Grand Slam title. “When you have one title,surely you will think about another,”she says,not hiding her ambition(雄心).
“Chinese people are so lacking(缺乏)in confidence on the tennis court. If there is a person like me who can prove we Chinese can do it,the other young players in China will feel the same,”she said.

The population of Earth is still going up. There will be less and less good land for growing crops in the future. People worry that there will not be enough food for everyone in the middle of this century.
Recently scientists have discovered one strange plant
named fedtschenkoi(玉吊钟)may help. It can absorb(吸收)carbon dioxide(CO₂)
at night. It only needs 10 times less water than food plants like beans. This means it
can grow in the desert(沙漠).
In which ways could this plant help us?
Since deserts are increasing in size because of the changes in Earth’s climate, growing plants there will be more and more important. Although it is dangerous to
eat this plant, scientists can still study something about it: how it absorbs CO₂ at
night while many other plants only do this during the day, and why it is suited to the
desert.
There is another direction to take the research in. Producing a desert plant to eat
will be difficult, but there is still possibility to use the genes(基因)from this plant and put them into food plants.
The other way is to grow this type of plant for fuel(燃料). At the moment we
grow plants for fuel in good land. If we do it in deserts instead, more good land can be used to grow plants for food.
Desert plants have special qualities, which could be an answer to our future food
or energy needs. Scientists are working hard on it.
