問題詳情:
As a high school basketball coach, I did all I could to help the boys win the matches. To win every match was the goal. However, something following a match, in which I worked as a referee(裁判), changed my opinion on wins. It was a basketball game between New Rochelle and Yonkers High in New York.
New Rochelle was coached by Dan O’Brein, while Yonkers by Les Beck. The stadium (體育館) was crowded with people. The match was well played. Yonkers was leading by one point as I looked at the clock and discovered there were but 30 seconds left.
Yonkers, having the ball, passed the ball, shot, and missed. New Rochelle recovered the ball, passed the ball, and shot. The ball rolled around the rim (邊) but fell off the rim. The fans shouted. New Rochelle, the home team, recovered the ball, and tapped it in. I glanced (瞥見) at the clock and saw that the game was over. The noise was loud. I hadn’t heard the final bell because of it. I checked with the other referee, but he couldn’t help me.
I went to the time keeper, a young man of 17 or so. He said, “Mr Smith, the bell went off as the ball rolled off the rim.”
I had to tell Coach O’Brein the sad news. “Dan,” I said, “Time ran out before the final basket was tapped in. Yonkers won the game.”
His face clouded over. The young timekeeper came up. He said, “I’m sorry, Dad. Time ran out before the final basket.”
In a short time, like the sun coming out from behind a cloud, Coach O’Brein’s face lit up. He smiled, “That’s OK, Joe. You did what you should do. I’m proud of you.”
Then he turned to me with a proud smile on his face and said, “He’s my son, Joe.”
