时间：2018-12-11 作者：英语课 分类：万花筒2006年
This country has become the World Cup champion in sui-soccer or football as it is known , that is known here and this is what winning a World Cup is all about. It is about celebration, about rapture 1 and a good deal of energy, scenes like this are happening all across the country, from the North to the South. Millions are now taking to the streets, celebrate this historical game. After 24 years, the World Cup returns to Italy. And this country is celebrating perhaps like never before. Because this time, it was perhaps unexpected because Italy has now won the World Cup 4 times and only Brazil has done it better with 5 victories. And because the Italian football is under scrutiny 2 after a match-fixing scandal 3, involving some of the country's best-known teams and perhaps all this will help restore some national pride. But tonight, it is the time to celebrate, tonight it is the time to celebrate this 4th victory and this is just a beginning, I meant it beginning because as Italian national team returns to Rome tomorrow night, Monday night, up to a million people are expected to be here.
