A record stands forever——永遠不能破的紀錄
Back at my high school for the tenth reunion, I met my old coach. Walking through the gym, we came upon a plaque on which I was still listed as the record holder for the longest softball throw. Noticing my surprise, the coach said, "That record will stand forever." I was about to make some modest disclaimer that records exist to be broken, when he added, "We stopped holding that event years ago."
【中文譯文】
回到讀高中的學校參加10週年聚會時,我遇到了上學時的教練。 一起走過體育館的時候,我們看到一塊紀念牌,上面還有我的壘球投擲最長距離的紀錄。 看到我驚奇的神情,教練說,“這個記錄會永遠保持下去”。 我正想說幾句謙虛的話,說紀錄一定會有破的之類的時候,教練補充說,“幾年前我們停止舉辦這項比賽了”
