6 4 The English News Weekly Podcast Jaime Selwood 2016 PART 3 Listening Listening / Reading Listening So Close But Not Quite Which Word? Help Listen / Read the news story below and check your understanding. 266 So Close But Not Quite 1 For 25 years Hiroshima 1: Goat/Carp/Swallows fans have waited for their team to reach the Japan Series the climax to the professional baseball season. A club that never signed free-agents and watched their best players be snapped up by bigger and 2: richer/smaller/poorer rivals has led Carp fans to become a frustrated, if loyal set of supporters. But finally this year, after so many dark years of 3: defeated/winning/losing campaigns the Carp reached the final series. 2 Sadly though, there was to be no fairy-tale end to the season and late on Staurday October 29 th, the 4: last/end/deadly pitch of the 2016 Japanese baseball season was thrown from the mound in the Mazda Stadium. The Carp were 10-4 down and losing 3-2 in the 7-Game series. There was to be no remarkable comeback, and when the final batter was 5: bowled/caught/run-out it was the team from the very north of Japan Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters who won the game and became Japanese champions. 3 Yet the Carp s season of unexpected success joins other sporting teams that won in 2016 despite not being tipped as potential champions. The biggest sporting shock of year remains the 6: shocking/unbelievable/amazed title success of Leicester City in the English Premier League. At the start of the season in August 2015 the club from the Midlands of England were 5,000 1 to win the title. Yet, the club created one of the most remarkable achievements in 7: English/British/World sport by winning the league title by 10 points. 4 Other sporting shocks for the year included Portugal beating hosts France to win Euro 2016 the country s first international 8: trophy/cup/win. In rugby union, England travelled to Australia and whitewashed the Wallabies 3-0 for the first time in the country s 145-year history. Whilst in Major League Baseball, two clubs with longest droughts in history the Chicago Clubs and the Cleveland Indians face off in the 9: American/World/Baseball Series. 5 Despite losing the Japan series Carp fans can still take solace that for once this season had not ended a month earlier as most of the previous 25 had. The club did sweep the Central League, winning the division by a massive 10: 17/217/7 games and relegating two of the richest ball clubs in Japan the Hanshin Tigers and Yomiuri Giants to also-rans. And, for the first time since 1991 the Central League Champions Pennant will fly over the 32,000-seat Hiroshima Stadium. There is always next year END OF PART 3 [395 Words]
