When you think about competitions, you probably think of sports such as basketball and football. Not all competitions are sports, though. One example is the Rock Paper Scissors World Championship.
Rock-Paper-Scissors is a simple game that is played between two people. Each player counts to three and then “throws” one hand forward (向前), making one of three gestures (手势). Rock wins against Scissors, Scissors win against Paper, and Paper wins against Rock. Although the game is simple, many players say that they have developed some skills for winning.
Some people might consider the Rock-Paper-Scissors competition to be strange. Around the world, though, people compete in many events that others think are crazy. In England, an unusual competition is organized every year. Hundreds of people run down a hill and run after a huge wheel of cheese. (3)最初,这个比赛是为住在当地村子里的人举办的。 But now people from all over the world come to attend it. In Finland, many people compete in the Air Guitar World Championships. They play guitars that cannot be seen in front of other people.
(4)These competitions are just a few of the crazy games that people play. With some practice and training, maybe you could be a winner in one of these competitions yourself!
