跟學最新口語熱詞:"退役"怎麼說

北京時間7月9日，根據NBA官網、ESPN和美國雅虎體育等權威媒體報道，從02年進入NBA就一直效力於休斯敦火箭的中國球員姚明現在已經正式決定從NBA退役，結束他取得諸多榮譽但也飽受傷病困擾的九年NBA職業生涯。作爲中國籃壇歷史上最偉大的球星，姚明經歷了一番風雨之後，終於做出了他的選擇。

我們來看相關英文報道：
Yao Ming's management team released an official statement on Saturday afternoon revealing China's most famous basketball player will face the media and public in 10 days' time in his hometown of Shanghai to make a "significant" decision about his future. The announcement came hours after Yahoo! Sports reported the NBA all-star center had decided to quit the game, after nine star-crossed seasons, on Friday night.

According to Yahoo, the veteran had informed the Rockets, the league office in New York and NBA China of his decision to leave the game. And the league's official website published a story headlined: "Rockets' center Yao retires".

週六下午，姚之隊發佈官方聲明，透露中國最著名的籃球運動員姚明將於10天后在家鄉上海召開新聞發佈會，做未來發展的重要決定。雅虎體育週五晚報道了NBA全明星中鋒姚明在經歷了9個賽季後決定退役，之後幾小時姚之隊發佈了該聲明。

據雅虎報道，姚明已經向火箭隊、紐約NBA辦公室以及NBA中國發出通知，告知自己退役的決定。而NBA官方網站也發佈了題爲“火箭隊中鋒姚明退役”的報道。

【講解】文中的“quite the game”，“leave the game”和“retire”都指“退役”，名詞爲“retirement”，如announce Yao’ s retirement(宣佈姚明退役)。NBA是National Basketball Association的簡稱，文中的center是指籃球比賽的中鋒，其它一些角色還包括Power Forward （大前鋒），Small Forward（小前鋒）, Point Guard(控球后衛)，Shooting Guard （得分後衛）。
