郑钦文：有点得意，就是我很少有得意的心情，但是这次拿到奥运会冠军，虽然说不想承认，这不太符合中国人谦虚的气质，但是内心真的有点得意，也有点骄傲，也有点无与伦比的开心。因为我是一个不太喜欢把表情表现到脸上的人，但大家可以看到这次奥运会其实我真的很多的情绪都外露了，包括我在赢下科贝尔那一场，不知道为什么就哭了。（然后呢）也包括那么多场倒地的瞬间，都足以证明了我对奥运会的热爱。（我）觉得这个金牌对我来说意味着一切。
记者：你觉得奥运会的金牌会是你一生当中最重要的金牌吗？
郑钦文：我觉得肯定是的，因为这不是我个人的，这是我为国家的荣誉而战，甚至我打破了历史，成为中国网球第一个拿到单打金牌的人，这是我小时候一直的梦想。然后我知道这一直以来是我爸的梦想，（然后）他从小就激励着我，（然后）终于可以骄傲自豪地跟他说：“老爸我这次终于光宗耀祖了一回，你终于可以好好地炫耀了。希望以后我打不好的时候，不要给我那么大压力，因为这块金牌代表着一切。”

Have you heard of this verb?

'To exude'

To give off something; whether it's a smell, a vibe, a look, a personality trait... 

Where have you heard or seen this verb before? 

Luke's English Sessions

Ep 5. 'This tropical island exudes a sense of relaxation...' 

The Super Bowl, one of the biggest nights in US sports — and the American cultural calendar — ended with victory for the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday February 9.

The Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in New Orleans. The game was played amid heavy security — and with President Donald Trump in attendance — just 41 days after a man drove a truck into New Year's partygoers on the city's Bourbon Street.

There were tributes before the game to the 14 people who were killed in the incident.

On the field, there was plenty for millions of viewers around the world to enjoy — although the game was not so enjoyable for Chiefs fans.

The Kansas franchise had won three out of the last five Super Bowls, but they didn't come close in the 59th edition.

Not even the presence of pop superstar Taylor Swift, who has spent all season supporting boyfriend Travis Kelce, a player with the Chiefs, could make a difference!

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said his players had to work together to win. "This is the ultimate team game. You can't be great without the greatness of others," he said.

The Chiefs' star quarterback Patrick Mahomes was kept quiet by the Eagles defense, denying him a fourth Super Bowl win.

A lot of the pre-game interest in the Super Bowl had centered around the traditional halftime entertainment, with rapper Kendrick Lamar performing just days after winning five Grammy awards.

His show didn't disappoint, with dancers in red, white and blue performing around a car onstage, while the rapper also performed his Grammy-winning song of the year "Not Like Us."

However, one of the many performers was detained on the field after unfurling a combination of the Sudanese and Palestinian flags with "Sudan" and "Gaza" written on it.

An NFL spokesperson told The Associated Press that the performer would be banned for life from all NFL stadiums and events.

Trump, meanwhile, became the first serving US President to attend the Super Bowl.
