World Cup Dad
For most of my 15 years, my father usually said very little to my mother and me. He preferred reading the newspaper or watching football matches on television to talking to his family.
Everything changed one morning. As soon as I came downstairs to breakfast, I could see that he wasn’t his usual reserved (緘默的) self. “Can’t wait! FIFA World Cup! Big match! Must see!”1 quickly figured out what ail the excitement was about: Dad is a big football fan.
I had never been interested in football, but Dad’s excitement that morning made me more and more curious. I had to find out why this sport was making my normally reserved father act like a five-year-old on his first trip to Disneyland.
Dad decided that we should all eat at a little German restaurant so that we could watch the World Cup while eating. Secretly, I think he was hoping to turn Mum and me into football fans.
The match started a few minutes after we entered the restaurant. As I was eating my meal, a loud noise came from the television. Surprised, I looked up at the TV: “Why is that man jumping up and down?” Dad patiently explained:“That’s Papa Bouba Diop, my son. It’s normal for them to jump up and down after they’ve scored.”
Dad explained almost everything to me. His monosyliabic (單音節(jié)的) answers were a thing of the past. I loved the new Dad! I watched the rest of the match, becoming more and more interested. When I told my father that I planned to watch more matches with him, he smiled and gave me a wink (眨眼). At long last we had something in common.
Football has really helped Dad and me get closer and form a stronger relationship with each other. Who says football is only about 22 men running after a silly ball?

世界杯爸爸
在過去的15年里，爸爸很少跟我和媽媽講話，似乎他寧可選擇讀報看球賽，也不愿意同家人說說話。
然而一天早晨，一切都變樣了。我下樓吃早飯時，發(fā)現(xiàn)他再也不是那個沉默寡言的人了，他嘮叨著，“等不及了!世界杯就要開始了!大賽啊!一定要看!”我這才知道為什么他如此興奮：他是一個大球迷。
我原本對足球不感興趣，然而看著爸爸早上興奮的表情，我也對它越來越好奇起來。我想弄明白，這項運動有什么魅力能讓我一直沉默的.爸爸像一個五歲的小孩第一次去迪斯尼樂園一樣。
爸爸決定全家人去一個小小的德國餐廳吃飯，這樣大家就能邊吃飯邊看球賽。我私下里認為，爸爸是想把我和媽媽也變成球迷。
我們進餐廳沒多久，球賽就開始了。我在吃飯的時候，電視機里傳來很大的喧鬧聲。我邊看邊好奇地問“為什么那個人上上下下地跳呢?”爸爸非常耐心地解釋到：“兒子，他是巴比•迪奧普，進球后大家跳起來歡呼很正常的!”
爸爸跟我解釋了所有關(guān)于足球的事情，他的單音節(jié)的答話成了歷史，我愛這個新爸爸!我看完了剩下的比賽，并且越看越愛看。在我跟爸爸說我要和他一起看更多的比賽時，他向我眨了一下眼睛。我們終于找到一個共同點了。
足球幫我和爸爸建立了更親密、強大的關(guān)系。誰說足球只是一項22個人追著一個可笑的足球跑的運動?
