摘要
我从来不是什么运动员料子。到了青春期,我不再和男孩们玩触身式橄榄球,之后,我一直对运动没多大兴趣。我试过打网球,球打得太高太远,飞到了左外场。我试过打垒球,幸亏那球又“软”又大,我眼睛给它打中,也就是感觉糟糕倒霉而已。我试过跑步,但总不会有人在后面追赶我。
I've never been an athlete. I've never been much interested in sports, ever since I stopped playing touch-footbali with the boys, when I hit puberty. I've tried tennis. I hit the ball too high, too long, and way over into left field. I've tried softball. Thank goodness that ball is "soft" and big, because it felt just awful when it hit me in the eye. I tried running, but I couldn't get anyone to chase me.
