I had an interesting experience playing ping-pong last year. I was playing against a    1    opponent (對(duì)手). The score was 20 to 17 in her    2   . I won the next three points which made the score 20 to 20. I    3    my paddle on the table and thanked my opponent and began to walk away.

Under these conditions, the only choice to   15   global destruction is global impasse. This would be a   16   "tie game" where no nation wins and no nation loses. An impasse reached through compromise (妥協(xié)). This is because compromise becomes the only means of   17  . We cannot destroy this beautiful planet by holding on to   18    understanding of victory. The   19   victory is in achieving a desirable impasse. No one wins,   20   no one loses either.
