歡迎來到《一分鐘英語》欄目！
When you listen to American English, you might hear this: Last-Ditch Effort
當你聽美語時，你可能會聽到這個短語：最后的努力
Let's find out what it means. Listen:
讓我們來看看這是什么意思。一起聽一下：
Did you watch that basketball game last night?
你看了昨晚的籃球比賽了嗎？
Yeah, that shot at the end of the game was a real last-ditch effort to try and win.
看了，比賽最后階段的那記投籃，是為了贏球做出的最后的努力。
But it's hard to make the basket from that far away!
但是在那么遠的距離是很難投進的。
Too bad he didn't make it. He could've won the game for the team.
太糟糕了，他沒能投進。他本來可以為球隊贏得比賽的。
A last-ditch effort is a final attempt to succeed at something.
最后的努力是指為某事的成功做出得最后一搏。
It is a difficult thing to do. It may or may not work.
通常這比較困難。也許會成功，也許不會。
In our example, the basketball player's last-ditch effort to make a basket did not work, and his team lost the game.
在我們的例子中，那名籃球運動員的最后一投沒有投進，而他的球隊也因此輸了比賽。
And that's English in a minute.
