五.篇章結構10%【每題2%】    The story started in 1918 when the Red Sox won their fifth World Series title; the team was led to victory by their greatest pitcher, Babe Ruth, also known as “the Bambino” (“babe” in Italian). A couple of years later, because Red Sox boss needed the money to invest in the Broadway show business, he decided to sell the Bambino to the New York Yankees,(55).    This kind of trade occurs frequently in baseball, but after trading Babe Ruth the Red Sox were not able to win the championship again until 2004; however, (56). Before 2004, the Red Sox had played in four World Series but lost each of them in the seventh and final game. The Yankees on the other hand became one of the most successful teams in American sports history. It has been said that (57).    After eighty-six years, in late October of 2004, the curse was finally broken in a surprising turn of events. The Red Sox were behind the Yankees three games to zero, (58)! Some Red Sox fans said that Babe Ruth’s ghost had winked at them in the ballpark (59). And then they won the World Series again in .2007.
