5.On the morning of the day when he left Compton High School in Los Angeles,18-year-old Allan Guei asked seven of his classmates to come together.Guei,a star on the basketball team,expressed he was giving away the 40,000he'd won in a competition and was dividing it among them.The room filled with shouts and cheers."Everyone went mad with excitement,"he says."They were surprised that I would do something like that for them."In November 2000,Guei's family moved from the Ivory Coast to the United States,and he immediately took up basketball."When I first came to California,the Lakers were winning:it was Kobe Bryant,Shaquille O'Neal era (时代),"he recalls."I just fell in love with the game."
A few years later,he was playing for the school.Then,in March,he entered a free-throw competition at the school,and the town saw just how big a team player Guei really is-both on and off the court (球场).
In the first round,each of the eight contestants (竞争者) took ten shots,and the top four shooters advanced."I was one of the final four,but I really didn't shoot that well,"Guei says."I was nervous!"In the second round,however,he took the winning shot.He went home with the prize of 40,000.
A few months before Guei left school,he was offered a full scholarship (奖学金) to California State University,and he had an idea."I could have kept the prize money,but I was already going to college for free,"Guei says."I knew the others were going to have a lot of difficulty paying for school.They needed it for their futures,so I just decided to give it away."
Now wearing No.25on Northridge's Matadors basketball team,Guei has little time for anything but training and studying,though he keeps in touch with most of his classmates."I know those kids.Whatever they decide to do in life is going to be something good,"he says."It was just the right thing to do."
As for his own future,Guei is still learning."I work really hard at everything I do,"he says."But whatever happens in my future,I'm just happy that I was able to help somebody else along the way."
