勒布朗·雷蒙·詹姆斯，绰号“詹皇”，是一名效力于美国职业篮球联盟（NBA）热火队的球员。身高2.03米的他司职小前锋也能胜任大前锋。他荣膺“NBA总冠军”，“NBA总决赛MVP”，“NBA常规赛MVP”和“NBA年度最佳新秀”等称号，并9次入选“NBA全明星阵容”，7次“NBA最佳阵容”，以及5次“NBA最佳防守阵容”。2013年1月16日，他成为了NBA史上最年轻的“20000分先生”，这时他的28岁生日刚过去17天。
James was born on December 30， 1984 in Akron， Ohio to a 16-year-old mother， Gloria Marie James， who raised LeBron on her own. Life was often a struggle for LeBron and Gloria， who moved from apartment to apartment in the slummy3 neighborhoods of Akron while Gloria struggled to look for steady work. Realizing he would be better off with a more stable4 family environment， Gloria allowed LeBron to move in with the family of Frank Walker， a local youth football coach， who introduced LeBron to basketball when LeBron was nine years old.
詹姆斯于1984年12月30日在俄亥俄州的阿克伦出生，他的母亲格洛里亚·詹姆斯当时年仅16岁，却独自将詹姆斯抚养长大。母子俩生活得非常艰难，他们经常在阿克伦的贫民区中搬家，同时格洛里亚也在努力寻找稳定的工作。当她意识到詹姆斯在一个更稳定的家庭环境中能够更好地成长时，她决定让詹姆斯搬进当地青少年橄榄球教练弗兰克·沃克的家中生活，而沃克正是在詹姆斯9岁时教会他打篮球的启蒙老师。
As a youth， James played Amateur Athletic Union （AAU） basketball for the Northeast Ohio Shooting Stars. James played high school basketball at St. Vincent St. Mary High School in his hometown of Akron， Ohio. A three-time “Mr. Basketball of Ohio”， he was highly praised by the national media as a future NBA superstar.
少年时，詹姆斯在业余竞技联盟里的俄亥俄东北流星队打球。詹姆斯的高中篮球时代是在家乡阿克伦的圣文森特—圣玛丽高中度过的。他高中连续三次被评为“俄亥俄州篮球先生”。国家媒体高度赞扬他，称他为未来的“NBA超级巨星”。
After graduating， he was selected with the first overall pick of the 2003 NBA Draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers. James led the Cavaliers to the 2007 NBA Finals， their first NBA Finals appearance in franchise history， but the team was swept by the San Antonio Spurs. In 2010， he left the Cavaliers for the Heat in a highly publicized free agency period. James won his first championship5 in 2012 when the Heat defeated6 the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was awarded7 the NBA Finals MVP Award.
毕业之后，他参加了2003年的NBA选秀，并在第一顺位被克里夫兰骑士队选中。2007年，詹姆斯带领骑士队闯入NBA总决赛，这是骑士队在球队历史上第一次登上总决赛，然而他们却被圣安东尼奥马刺队横扫出局。2010年，他以被高度宣传的自由球员身份离开克利夫兰加盟热火队。2012年热火队在总决赛上击败了俄克拉荷马雷霆队，詹姆斯获得了第一座NBA总决赛MVP。 In addition to being a star on the court， James has got large amount of wealth and fame as a result of numerous8 endorsement contracts， and he has been ranked as one of America’s most influential9 athletes. Besides he has been devoted to charity projects and public service， especially those helping kids. James has made a great contribution to the community. He supported four different charities called the After School All Stars （ASAS）， Boys and Girls Clubs of America （BGCA）， Children’s Defense Fund（CDF）， and ONExONE. ASAS provides after school programs that prepare kids for college and improve their sports and academic10 skills. BGCA lets kids have passion for life and become potential students. CDF helps kids get a healthy start in life and gives poor kids the supplies they need. ONExONE improves the lives of children around the world.
除了在场上是明星，詹姆斯也通过大量的广告合同积聚了可观的财富和名望，并被评选为美国最富影响力运动员之一。此外，他还投身于慈善项目和公益事业，尤其是那些帮助孩子的慈善和公益。詹姆斯为社会做了极大贡献，他支持了“明日之星”，“美国男孩女孩俱乐部”，“儿童保护基金”和“ONExONE基金”四个不同的慈善事业。“明日之星”提供课余项目帮助孩子们为上大学做准备，并锻炼他们的体育和学业技能。“美国男孩女孩俱乐部”努力让孩子们对生活充满激情并成为有潜力的学生，“儿童保护基金”帮助孩子们在人生道路上有一个健康的开始，并为贫困孩子提供所需物品。“ONExONE基金”致力于改善全世界的孩子的生活。
As you can see James is not only a threat to players on the court， but he is also a threat to anybody who wants to prevent the poor children to have their needs met.
如你所见，场上的詹姆斯是对手们强有力的威胁，而对于场下的詹姆斯，更是无人能阻碍他满足贫困孩子需求的步伐。
