Tony: HAS. Lingling: What does HAS stand for? Tony: Haidian All Stars. Betty: Oh, yes. It'll be a difficult match. Didn't they beat you last time? Tony: Yes, they did. But... Lingling: What was the score? Betty: If my memory is correct, HAS 98 points to BIG 52. Tony: But Daming wasn't chosen for the team last time. That was a bad decision. We can't play well without him. Lingling: That's no excuse! Tony: But Daming is back now. There's no difference between the two teams this season. Betty: When is the match? Tony: It's next Saturday at noon, but if you want good seats, you should come by 11:30. Are you coming? Betty: I'm not sure. Do you think they'll win, Lingling? Lingling: No way! How many matches have you played against HAS this year? Tony: Well, about three. Betty: And how many have HAS won? Tony: Er... most of them. Betty: Wrong! All of them! Face the truth, Tony. You've got no chance! Tony: I don't agree. That's not fair! (Tony leaves angrily.) Lingling: Remember to throw the ball, not kick it, Tony! Betty: He's so mad at us that he'll try harder to win, just to show we're wrong! Lingling: Nice work, Betty! I do hope they win this time. We'll be there to cheer for them. That's no excuse! No way! Face the truth. You've got no chance! Nice work!
