It’s 25 degrees centigrade and it’s a beautiful day for golf! Welcome to the centennial celebration of the Golden Golf Tournament in Bend,Oregon. One hundred year ago, the population of this town was under 10,000. Today, the census tells us that the population is over 1,000,000.
The golf course has grown too. It’s no longer just a small country golf course with unique character. Now, it’s a multi-million dollar resort with characteristic charm. The course grounds now include a new hotel with a chapel. In each sleeping chamber, you can hear the pleasant sounds of chamber music as it was played 100 years ago.
Last year’s champion has returned to defend his title. Three other previous champions will also be playing. Perhaps this championship will determine who is the best Golden Golfer this decade.
The start of the match is often chaotic. Throngs10 of spectators try to get themselves in the best position to see the action. There’s a lot of pushing going on out there. Although I wouldn’t characterize it as a chaos, it’s getting pretty wild. I can see a dense11 crowd of people pushing their way towards the front of get a better view of the opening ceremony.
Minutes from now, the tournament master will ring the ceremonial bell with his gold hammer. As usual, the players are formally dressed for this ceremonious occasionWhile we’re waiting, let’s talk a little more about golf. We’ve seen some unusual tough matches this year. Our network censors12 have had a difficult time screening our some of the rough language. Some of the players were censured13 for swearing. Nothing causes more chagrin than being officially reprimanded. It’s almost as bad as being chafed14 by a brand new pair of golf shoes!
And there’s the sound of the bell!
今天气温25摄氏度,天气晴朗宜人,非常适合打高尔夫!欢迎大家来到俄勒冈的本德市参加高尔夫金球比赛的百年庆典。100年前,我市人口还不到1万。如今,人口普查结果显示人口总数已突破百万大关。
高尔夫球场也扩大了。它不再是个个性独特的乡村球场。现在,它已经是价值好几百万美元、具有独特魅力的度假胜地。球场区现在包括一家新开的酒店,酒店里还有个小教堂。在每一间卧室里,你都能听到悠扬的室内音乐,正如100年前所演奏的那样。
去年的冠军为捍卫他的冠军称号再次来到本德,其他三位前冠军也将参赛。也许今年的锦标赛将决定谁是这十年来的最佳金球高尔夫选手。
比赛开始时常常是乱成一团。成群的观众争先恐后的想占个最佳位置,以便观战。大家你推我,我推你。虽说我不能将这一场面描绘成一片混乱,但也够疯狂的。我能看到黑压压的一群人正你拥我挤地向前排走,想到开幕式跟前看个一清二楚。
几分钟后,比赛主持将用他的金锤敲响正式比赛的钟声。跟往常一样,选手们将盛装参加这一隆重的仪式。
现在我们一边等,一边可以聊点高尔夫的话题。今年我们观看到了相当激烈的比赛。我们的网络审查员好不容易才筛除了一些粗俗用语。一些选手因骂人而收到指责。没有什么比当众受骂更令人懊恼了,这就好比被一双新高尔夫球鞋擦破脚一样难受!
现在钟声敲响了
