A: Good morning golf aficionados! My name is Rick Fields, and you guessed it, I am here with my main man, Bob Copeland.

B: Thank you, Rick! As you can see, ladies and gentleman, we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars!

A: Whoa, that’s a lot of cash! Let’s go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing.

B: All right, we are here at the eighth hole. It’s a par four, and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid. Although, I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole!

A: Tiger Woods is about to tee off, and let’s see if he has the same luck as Jack. Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and, he seems to be very nervous.

B: Oh no! Not a good swing at all! It’s definitely not his day today. On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par. He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot.

A: It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees. He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it.

B: Oh no! A bear! Run, Tiger, run! Somebody call animal control!

A: 高尔夫爱好者们，早晨好。我是Rick Fields, 正像你猜想的那样，我和最好的朋友Bob Copeland一同在现场。

B: 谢谢，Rick。先生们、女士们，我们此刻正在美丽的“鹅卵石海滩”，在这儿世界顶尖高尔夫选手正在全力争夺100万美元的大奖。

A: 哇，那真是一大笔钱。让我们一起去球场看看泰格•伍兹的表现。

B: 我们正在（球场的）第8洞，它是个标准4杆球洞，而且设有一些很难对付的障碍，很多选手都发现很难绕开这些障碍。尽管如此，我亲眼看到杰克•尼克劳斯在第8洞一杆进球。

A: 泰格•伍兹要开球了,让我们拭目以待看他是否有和杰克一样的好运。伍兹正在让球童拿（给他）长打棒，他看起来非常紧张。

B:天哪。根本不是一个好球。显然今天不是他的幸运日。在第7洞，他打出了标准杆数，但是在那以前他几乎没有打出标准杆数。这一击显然不能比标准杆数少一杆而击球入洞。

A: 看起来他的球落在了树丛深处。找球有些苦难，他的球童甚至爬上树去找球。

B: 天哪！有头熊！快跑，伍兹，快跑！谁去找人来控制住那头熊。
