Sample answer:

Well,I do have an exciting piece of news to tell and I believe it was a miracle(奇迹) in the sport history. The news was that on May 2nd, 2016,Leicester City Football Club(莱斯特城足球俱乐部) won the Premier League(英超联赛) and became the champions of England.

It was so hard for me to sleep on two o'clock before drawn(互无胜负的) after receiving this piece of news. 1 tried to tell everyone in my family about this miracle. I wanted to share with my friends and colleagues whether they were soccer fans or not. I was ready to tell the most astonishing(令人吃惊的) underdog story in sports history I ever heard.

Why this news is exciting and Why it is a miracle. Because during the past 132 years Leicester City Football Club never won the Premier League once. Leicester City was never a strong team before and the team was almost demoted(被降级) last year. At the start of this year,bookmakers offered incredible(不可思议的) odds of 5000-1 on Leicester City winning the Premier League. Also the coach(教练) for Leicester City had never won any major league before. In addition,the entire(整个) Leicester City team players'market value was only equal to one well-known player's market value in some bigger teams. No one believed they could beat those bigger clubs and ranked the first.However, in the ending of season this underdog, Leicester City won the league and became the champions.

neglected： 疏忽( neglect的过去式和过去分词 ); 疏于照顾
