       Americans love sports very much. Do you know NBA? That’s one of the popular sports in the USA .But today I would like to tell you something about another sport in the USA. That's baseball( 棒球).
Baseball is one of the favourite sports in the USA. People play the game with a bat ( 球拍 )and ball by
two opposing(相反的 )teams of nine players. Boys and girls, young and old, take turns at bat. Each team has nine players. Children often play baseball in sports fields or in parks. In summer, there are often
informal( 非正式的 )baseball games.
       The baseball season goes from April to September. During this time, people can watch baseball matches on TV and members of the important baseball teams become America’s heroes ( 英雄 ).At the end of the season the two top teams play against each other .Many baseball fans go along to watch the game. Millions of others listen to the radio and watch TV. People talk only about the game .Even after it is over,
they still talk about the result ( 结果 )and players.

the radio or in front of the TV sets to hear the result.

Several years ago,a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies(公司) in the world, and the third one had many buildings in the center of New York.

The reporter was talking to them about being important.

“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.  

The banker thought for a few moments and then said,“I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President(总统) of the United States is really important.” 

   The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.

The man shook his head,“No,I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if when you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”  

The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?” 

   “No,I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.” 

“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.   

"Oh,I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang,and the President picked up the receiver,listened and then said,“It’s for you.”
