Answer 1

上周我和表弟艾德打了一场短网拍墙球比赛。这是我打过的最无望、最令人疲劳的比赛。当艾德最初打电话提出比赛建议的时候，我平静地笑了，料想我能够赢得很轻松。毕竟，艾德的体育锻炼概念不过是把叉子举到嘴边罢了。我只记得，艾德是他家庭里最不健壮的一个，而且很奇怪地因此而自豪。他的大肚皮总是像气球一样鼓在他的T恤和裤子之间。尽管家人总是为此开玩笑，他还是拒绝买个大一点的T恤或者减减肥。所以，当艾德前来比赛时，不进他的上衣下摆束进了裤腰里，而且大肚皮也几乎看不出来了，我很吃惊，几乎说不出话来。我表弟一定是下了大力气让自己保持体形。结果呢，比赛到了我原预测比分是9比1我获胜的时候，相反地，却是7比9，艾德领先。突然意识到这一点是很痛苦的。我俩继续像疯子一样比赛。当比分到了16平的时候，我严重的怀疑我一直活到了21岁是怎么活的，更不用说得了那么多分。当比赛最终结束的时候，我俩平躺在地上，累的动不了。从一定角度来说，我认为我俩都赢了：我赢了比赛，但是表弟艾德赢得了我的尊重。
