Lottery fever in US 彩票“樂透”美國

Millions are trying their luck in seven states

七個州的幾百萬人準備碰一碰運氣

Millions of people in the United States are scrambling for tickets to enter one of the world's biggest-ever lottery draws.

Shops in seven eastern states have been besieged by customers desperate to buy a ticket for the prize - which could be as much as $350m.

The odds of winning are put at 76 million to one, what means that it is almost as likely as being hit by lightning twice on the same day.

成千上萬的美國人等待在彩票發售點，期待著能夠趕上世界有史以來金額最大的一次抽獎。

美國東部七個州的商店都圍滿了瘋狂的顧客，他們希望好運能夠降臨在自己身上，重獎的金額將高達3億5千萬美元。

獲獎的幾率是7600萬比1，這同一個人在一天內被閃電擊中兩次的概率相同。
