只猜对了意大利。 他们看好的其他三只队伍分别为:巴西,阿根廷,英国。 专业赌博公司就这水平, 可真够笨的。

Some of them were singing "Que, sera, sera" when it came down to penalty kicks.

Hello, Everyone Just learned from CCTV that the death toll in China directly related to the World Cup 2006 has reached to 9 people by now. One of them jumped out of the window from a high-rise building after he saw the Dutch team lost in a game. I must be either too old or too detached from the real world. I scratched my head so hard but have trouble to understand why this happens in China, let alone the Chinese team was not even there. Kevin

I wish these people could have listened to "bad day" before they lost all perspective. I think that's one good thing about most American TV programs. Most of them end with an uplifting message and a positive outlook, even when the person or team that you were rooting for lose in a competition.

That's the song that I used to sing before I was 10 years old...I actually learned it from " English on Sunday" , which was hosted by 彭文兰 twenty years ago... Betty, I don't know who 彭文兰 is. You must be a lot younger than I am I used to listen to 彭其婉 on 北京人民广播电台的少年儿童节目"小喇叭" I can still find some info on her by doing a search. Isn't the internet and the google search engine wonderful? | |

My mother, a retired doctor, believes the heart attach might have played a role. To die for the World Cup is too ridiculous in my opinion. Kevin | | |
Chinoise Local time: 09:39 English to Chinese + ... TOPIC STARTER CCTV is certainly reliable. | Jul 3, 2006 |
Kevin, If it's CCTV News, then I believe it's true. I agree with your mother that their deaths might have been caused by Heart Attack. Besides, committing suicide for the World Cup is really absurd and silly. Kevin Yang wrote: CCTV is usually pretty accurate. It was reported by its news anchor Lu Jian.

其实国内盛行玩股票,有人玩得过火,也会自杀,幸好只是极少数。玩麻将把家都给玩光了的也有。 其实这些人和热爱体育运动毫无关系

今年环法自行车大赛也开始了,有世界杯,而且没有Lance Armstrong 参赛,我几乎没看。大多数参赛运动员倒是松了一口气,他们总算该有出头之日了 不过这次Armstrong 原队友和朋友George Hincapie 也有机会显示他的才华和能力,我发现他居然长得也象 Armstrong !

Also mentioned was something about a doping scandal involving some of the top cyclists being caught using performance enhancing drugs. They somehow got busted... I wasn't paying too much attention though. http://msn.foxsports.com/cycling/story/5746932 Had a glimpse of Sheryl Crow on TV yesterday talking about her failed romance with Lance Armstrong... I also clicked to another channel. http://people.aol.com/people/article/0,26334,1156475,00.html I'd better stop. I don't want to be thought of as the official rumor monger. | | |
