Benjamin: Hey, Terry, have all the players got here?

Terry: Yeah, most of them have arrived. Don't worry. There are still 20 minutes left before the match.

Benjamin: OK. By the way, the stadium is terrific¹.

Terry: Of course. It's a newly-built one.

Benjamin: We are lucky to play in a new stadium.

(20 minutes later the match begins. Terry and Benjamin are on the same team.)

Terry: Hurry up, Benjamin! Pass the ball to me. I'm good at shooting.

Benjamin: Look out. Catch the ball. You should dunk besides the three-point line.

(Terry takes a shot and the referee² whistles.)

Terry: Oh, God! I didn't touch anybody. How can I commit a foul³?

Benjamin: Just calm down. It's just a turnover⁴. Make up your mind and we can shoot well.

Terry: Yes, I got it. Come on, Benjamin, don't let him get into the paint.

Benjamin: No problem, I once played a 2-meter-high player successfully.

Terry: Really? You must be…

Benjamin: But that game he dunked over me for 13 times.

Terry: That's interesting. Let's hurry up, we should beat them in the first half.

Benjamin: Oh, look, what's happened to Jack⁵? He sat down.

Terry: He may be injured. Yes, come on, call the team doctor.

本杰明:嗨，泰瑞，大家都到齐了吗？

泰瑞:嗯，大部分人都到了。别担心，离比赛开始还差20分钟呢！

本杰明:好的，顺便说一下，这体育场真不错。

泰瑞:当然了，这可是新建成的。

本杰明:可以在新体育场里打球，我们真是太新运了。

（20分钟后比赛开始了，泰瑞和本杰明在同一个组。）

泰瑞:加油，本杰明。把球传给我，我擅长射篮。

本杰明:当心，接住球，你应该在3分线旁边投篮。

（泰瑞刚射篮裁判就吹哨。）

泰瑞:天哪！我没有碰任何人，我怎么可能犯规呢？

本杰明:冷静下来，这只是一个失误。打起精神来，我们能打得挺好。

泰瑞:嗯，我知道了。加油，本杰明，不要让他进入内线。

本杰明:没问题，我曾经成功的防守一个2米高的球员。

泰瑞:真的吗？你肯定……

本杰明:但是他在我头上射了13次。

泰瑞:真有趣。我们加油吧，我们在上半场打败他们。

本杰明:哎呀，看，杰克怎么了？他坐下了。

泰瑞:他可能受伤了。是的，快点，叫队医。
