Basketball players are usually very tall. Because they need to put the ball
into the basket. Other sports players may be shorter than them.
Short people often have better balance (平 衡) than tall people, so they
don't fall over very often. In some sports the players must have good
balance, for example, table tennis, they don't need to have long legs to run
fast! Some of the fast runners in the world are not very tall. Some people
are tall and some are short. The tallest man in the world is 2.41 meters
tall. Today young people in many countries grow taller than their parents.
This is because they eat better than their parents. Good food can help
children grow.
