【一起闲话英语】关于运动的最美好回忆-Best Sports Memory

 Aiman / Syria

speaker My best moment in sports was the last time I was cycling and I was really close to winning¹ that race but I had a puncture² and I had to withdraw³ from that race. But, that was really a great moment for me because I came a really long way to achieving that position.

 

Cheryl / United⁴ States

speaker What is my best moment in sports? Well, that's actually kind of difficult because I'm not very athletic⁵. However, I can say that my best moment in sports was when I was a child on Sports Day in school probably when I was in junior high I remember winning a blue medal which is third place for a relay⁶ game. That was probably my best moment. I think I'm just happy to hit the ball.

 

Antoine / France

speaker When I was like 12 years old my dad brought me to a football game. It was in Bordeaux which is a big city in France and Bordeaux was playing against Milan AC which at the time was one of the best teams in Europe. And Bordeaux beat Milan AC it was in the UEFA Cup and so it was a great moment. I cried.

 

Emily / Djibouti

speaker Ah, I think my favorite moment was in 1998 when for the World Cup. France won and I was with France so I was really happy and actually it was the first time that I was in France and I saw how people were happy and partying on that occasion⁷.

 

Jonathan / Canada

speaker The question is, what was my best moment in sports. Sadly, I don't really have a best moment in sports. When I played hockey as a boy I was the number two goalie and I didn't play very often. On my high school baseball team I was the number two catcher and the best player on the team was the number one catcher so I sat on the bench and kept score most of the games and I would only play if we were already losing something like 17 to 0 so I never had a wonderful moment in sports and I regret it.

 

Jeff / Canada

speaker My best moment ever in sports was I only played one rugby game in my whole life. I played where I grew up in High school. I played with the local weekend team and I practiced many times with them but I never played a game because I was always busy. But one day I played in only one game and I scored four tries and I was a hero and then I never played another game.
