    It's a must-eat fruit in Southeast Asia: People there call it 'King of Fruits". Many love it so much that they eat it at every meal. It is the durian (榴莲).

    The durian can only grow in hot places. Its name "durian" comes from the Malay word "duff".

    The durian is the most famous fruit in Southeast Asia. It looks big and dangerous and has a very strong smell (浓烈的气味). They come in different sizes. A durian can grow up to 30cm long, and usually it can be as heavy as 1 to 3kg.

    The greatest thing about the durian is inside. When you open it up, a very strong smell comes out.  In Singapore, people can't bring a durian into a hotel room or onto a city train. And they can't bring a durian onto some planes, either.

    Although the durian has a strong smell, the fruit tastes quite good.Some animals living in the forest like it!

    Years ago,Tareq and his family left their home in Bangladesh to New York City, USA. Tareq was only 12 years old then.

    In Bangladesh, Tareq's dad was a farmer. He worked hard for little pay. Every day, Tareq walked 6 kilometers to school. After school, he had to work on the farm.

    But Tareq had fun. He loved singing and playing cricket (板球) with his friends. One day Tareq's dad told him they would move to New York City. Tareq's dad found a new job there, and he thought life would be better there.

    In his new school, Tareq tried his best to understand (理解) his teachers, but it was quite hard. Also, he had few friends.

    Things changed (改变) when he started high school. His high school had students from 30 countries and a cricket team. Tareq was excited to join the cricket team. He was happy to be with kids who loved the game as much as he did. He practiced before and after school. "Playing with the cricket team was the first time I felt accepted in America," he said. "When you play, it .doesn't matter what grade you' re in or what language you speak."

    During his second year in high school, Tareq was named the cricket team's most valuable player (最有价值球员).

    Tareq will go to university next year. He said, "Most universities don't have a cricket team. But that's OK, because cricket was there for me when I needed it most."
