One evening, many friends came over to my house to watch an important baseball game. It was the last game of the championships1, and we were all rooting for the Elephants. Everyone was cheering and shouting throughout1 the close game. After eight and a half innings2, the scores were still tied at two and two.

My friends and I were really nervous, because we eagerly2 wanted the Elephants to win. All eyes were on the TV when suddenly, the screen became black. My TV broke at the most exciting moment of the game.

Because there was only one TV in my house, I quickly took out my radio and tried to find the baseball station. As soon as I did, we heard, "They won! They won! The Elephants won three to two." We were so happy that some of us even hugged each other.

某个傍晚,许多朋友为了观看一场重要的棒球比赛而来到我家。那是冠军赛的最后一场,而我们都是帮象队加油的。一整场难分轩轾的比赛下来,我们都在大声地欢呼吶喊。经过了八局半的比赛后,比分仍然停留在二比二的平手局面。

我和我的朋友都紧张不已,因为我们非常渴望象队能赢得比赛。所有人的目光都聚集在电视上之时,屏幕突然在一瞬间变黑。我的电视竟在比赛最刺激的一刻坏掉了。

因为我家里只有一台电视,所以我赶紧拿出我的收音机,试图找到转播棒球的电台。当我一转到时,我们就听到:『赢了!赢了!象队以三比二赢了。』我们真是开心极了,有些人甚至还抱在一起呢。
