有趣的比赛

开学的第一天放学以后，我和姐姐一起到小区的游泳池游泳。 游了几个来回，我觉得有点儿单调，就对姐姐提议：“姐姐，我们来比赛吧！”

“比什么呢？”姐姐问

"Than what?" Sister asked

我想了想，说：“我们来比赛抢乒乓球，游戏规则是用力将球扔出去，然后游过去，谁先抢到球谁就赢。”

I thought for a moment and said, "let's fight for table tennis. The rule of the game is to throw the ball out and swim over. Whoever grabs the ball first wins."

姐姐不服输地说：“好呀！”

The elder sister refuses to accept defeat to say: "good!"

于是，我从游泳包里取出一颗乒乓球，我们开始了第一局的比赛。第一局姐姐以最快的速度超过我抢到了球，赢得了胜利。我还在后面慢吞吞的游呢！

So I took a ping-pong ball from my swimming bag and we started the first game. In the first game, my sister got the ball faster than me and won the game. I'm still swimming slowly in the back!

第二局的比赛又开始了，我在心里暗暗地下决心，这次我要用我最拿手的“蛙泳”来和姐姐比赛。这时候，妈妈自告奋勇地说：“我来给你们当裁判吧！”我和姐姐异口同声地说：“好！”妈妈用力地把乒乓球往远处一扔！一声令下：“准备—开始！”我和姐姐听到口令，马上就奋力地往前游。游呀游，眼看我就要抢到球了，却被一个小朋友用手推了一下，把球又弄远了，我赶紧又使劲地游过去。我心想：不知姐姐游到哪里了？我转头看了看，发现姐姐还在后面，我在心里暗暗地高兴：呵呵！这次我赢定了。这样想着，我不知不觉地放慢了速度。姐姐见了，加快速度地游，结果，姐姐超过了我，又抢到了乒乓球。“太好了，我又赢了！”当我听到姐姐的欢呼声，我才知道我又输了！

The second game started again. I secretly decided that I would use my best "breaststroke" to compete with my sister this time. At this time, my mother volunteered: "I'll be the referee for you!" My sister and I said in unison, "OK!" Mother hurled the ping-pong ball hard into the distance! At one command: "prepare - start!" When my sister and I heard the command, we immediately swam forward. Swim and swim. Seeing that I'm about to grab the ball, I was pushed by a kid's hand and got the ball far away again. I swam quickly and hard. I thought to myself: I don't know where my sister swam? I turned around and saw that my elder sister was still behind me. I was secretly happy in my heart: ha ha! I'll win this time. In this way, I unconsciously slowed down. My sister saw me and swims faster. As a result, my sister overtook me and grabbed table tennis. "Great, I won again!" When I heard my sister's cheers, I knew I had lost again!

回到家里，我不服气地对姐姐说：“你太厉害了，居然在我不注意的时候就趁机超过我！”姐姐说：“你不能输了就把责任推到别人身上。”我听了，感到惭愧极了。

When I got home, I said to my sister unconvinced, "you are so powerful that you can overtake me when I don't pay attention!" "You can't put the blame on others if you lose," said the elder sister I'm ashamed to hear that.
