One day, there was a blind man called John sitting on the bench with a hat by his feet and a sign that read, "I am blind. Please help me.”
A creative publicist(广告员)named Tom was walking by the blind man and stopped to see that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own corns in the hat. Without asking for permission, took the sign, turned it around and wrote a new message. Then he put the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.

In fall 2006，the National Basketball Association （NBA）started using basketballs made with synthetic ，or man-made ，material instead of leather（皮革）．They made the change be- cause they wanted every basketball they use to feel and bounce（弹起）the same．Not all leather balls are exactly alike in weight or how they bounce，but the synthetic balls are．
However，some players complained right away that the new balls bounced differently and were actually harder to control than the leather ones．
Physics helped answer questions about why the new balls felt different．For example，the scientists studied friction（摩擦力），which in this case affects the ability of a player to hold onto a ball．"The greater the friction，the better it will stick to his hand，"explains a scientist．
Tests on both wet and dry balls showed that while the synthetic ball was easier to hold onto when dry，it had less friction and became much harder to hold onto when wet．That's because sweat stays on the surface of the synthetic balls but gets taken into the leather balls．
The scientists also tested bounce and found that the logo （商标）printed on the new balls made their surface uneven（不平） and caused them to bounce a little strangely com- pared with the leather balls．
In January，the NBA went back to using the leather balls．They aren't perfect，but for now，that's just the way the ball bounces．
Why were the synthetic balls expected to be used in NBA according to the text?

The ball is easier to hold on to_________

The synthetic ball bounces differently from the leather one mainly because _________

The underlined word sweat refers to ____________ .

It can be inferred（推断） from the text that _________．
