Unit6 精彩冬奥—冰壶与冰球 Sports5—Curling & Ice Hockey 05

ZM: I read that curling is a team sport played by two teams of four players on an ice rink. What did you learn about this sport?

K: As you said, each team has four members: two of them called “sweepers” sweep the ice in front of the curling stone so that the ice is smooth and the stone goes farther. That’s all I know about the game; it is a little confusing to me, but I’ll watch it on TV during the Olympics to learn more and understand it better.
