"Want to play soccer?" Nick asked Tim after school. "The person to get the most goals(进球)out of ten is the winner. Loser buys the winner something from the school bakery."
"Sounds like fun," Tim agreed.
Nick started the 1 and missed a shot(射门). Tim isn't a real player, Nick thought. I don't have to try very hard. He missed a second shot, then another before finishing his turn.
"I got 2 out of ten," Nick said with a smile. "Your turn."
Tim placed the ball on the grass, took a deep breath, and kicked. The ball flew straight into the goal. "3 " Nick rolled his eyes(翻白眼)and looked pretty confident.
Tim took his time on every shot, missing one, making one, then making another. When he got seven goals, Nick began to feel a little 4 . When Tim's final shot flew into the goal. Nick's stomach dropped.
"Eight out of ten! I can't believe I beat you," Tim laughed. "It's a real version(版本)of the story 5 ."
"What do you mean?" Nick said.
"You think I'm weak,so you didn't try your best. That's why you lost, just like what happened in the story," Tim answered with a smile.
"I won't do that again," Nick 6 as they headed to the school bakery. Nick learned his lesson.
