Jim stared at the ground and sighed in disappointment. Players from the opposing team raced past Jim, celebrating their shocking victory. They'd scored the game-winning goal just seconds before the end of the game.
"Just one word to describe a loss like that, " Jim mumbled to his teammate Devin.
"Terrible!" Devin sighed. "It was a tough one. " He trotted (小步快跑) toward the middle of the field to shake hands with the winning team. Jim walked slowly behind Devin. He unhappily slapped hands with the winners, then stopped to shut his eyes as the autumn air cooled his sweaty face.
"Terrible, " he repeated to himself as he sat on the bench and pulled his jacket on. "Let's get some hot chocolate and watch the next game, " Devin said. There were eight teams in the YMCA league, so games would go on all morning. "Sorry. I'm heading home, " Jim said, "I've had enough soccer for today. "
As he reached the gate, Jim glanced back to see the next two teams take the field. They were jumping and shouting, excited to play. "That was us a little while ago, before we were discouraged. " Jim thought.
So why we lost the game at last? Jim asked himself. How did such a well-played game end up with such a terrible result? It was still clear in his head: Jim had the ball deep on the Jets' side of the field, looking for Devin or another teammate to pass to. His team had outplayed the Jets for most of the game, but failed within the last seconds.
Jim let out a deep breath. The morning was growing warmer. Perfect for soccer. Jim looked back toward the field. He couldn't see it, but he could hear the excited voices as the game continued.
