competition.
Before a big football game, supporters of each are certain to argue (争论) about which side will win.
Sometimes, however, one team appears so much stronger than the others that everyone agrees it will win.
The stronger team is a shoo-in. there is no way that it can lose.
The expression "shoo-in" comes from horse racing. It comes from the word "shoo". That is not the shoe
we wear on our feet. It"s another word, S-H-O-O. To shoo is an expression hundreds of years old that means
to force an animal to move in a desired direction.
Many years ago dishonest (不诚实) riders sometimes agreed secretly to control their horses so that one
chosen horse would win the race. All but one of the riders would hold back their horses. The chosen rider
would shoo his horse ahead of the others, and win the race.
The other riders would secretly bet (打赌) large amounts of money that the chosen horse would win. The
public (公众) soon learned about such races. They began to call the winner of such a race a "shoo-in".
These days, people use shoo-into describe (描述) any athlete (运动员) or competitor that seems certain to
win, even without cheating.
American runner Edewin Moses won more than hundred races before he ran the hurdle race (跳拦赛) in
the 1984 Olympic Games. Everyone said Moses was a shoo-in, and that he could not lose. And they were
