阅读下列文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

Amos Grundy and Sam Spangler had been playing checkers (棋子) together for about twenty-five years. They kept their scores of wins and losses carefully on yellow lined paper. You might call it sort of life time checker tournament (比赛). Sam was leading 5000 games to 0. He liked it that way because he liked to win. Amos kept trying and his motto was “Don't give up. You can't lose them all.”

    Now Game 5001 began pretty much like any other game. Sam and Amos sat in their regular chairs—Sam looking confident and unbeatable-Amos nervously rubbing his white rabbit's foot. Rain was banging(猛击) loudly on the windows and there was the rumble(隆隆)of thunder shaking overhead.

    Sam was playing the blacks. Amos was playing the reds. Neither man smoke. Sam moved. Amos moved. Sam moved. Amos moved. But Amos for once was making all the right moves.

    He double-jumped Sam.

    He triple()-jumped Sam.

    He made one king and another king.

    Amos played the game of his life and he won it! “Rats!” said Sam. He wasn't used to losing. After winning 5000 straight games a loss was pretty hard to take. He grumbled (三倍的) . “But I'm still 4999 games ahead of you, Amos.” “Maybe so.” said Amos, “but we've got 5000 games to go, I'm going to win this tournament!”
