Richard is an exchange student from the USA. He is teaching his friends at Rose Garden School how to play Softball. He is explaining the rules.

Richard:     First, we need a bat, a ball and some bases.

Ben:        What are bases?

Richard:     They are flat squares that show you where to run. After you hit the ball, you have to run around the bases.

If you stand on a base, you are safe. If you are running to a base, and the other team touches the base with the ball, then you are out.

Jennifer:     Oh, I see. How would I hit the ball?

Richard:     Have you seen baseball on television?

Jennifer:     I have.

Richard:     Well, Softball is like baseball, only the ball is bigger and softer too.
