Hi, Wayne. The weather was nice last weekend. Did you do anything special?

I saw my nephew Lucas on Sunday. I couldn’t believe how tall he’s become. He’s almost as tall as his dad.

Wow! How old is he?

He’s only twelve. He plays basketball for the school team. In fact, we played one-on-one together on Sunday. Guess who won.

It wasn’t you.

Right. Anyway, it was good exercise for me, though. I really needed it.

Sounds like you had a good time with your nephew.

Yes, he’s a great kid.

For Deeper Understanding ~より深い理解へ~

Guess who won.

guess は「推測する」。重要動詞です。この文では wh 節(誰が勝ったのか)が続いています。Guess …(~か分かるかな・当ててみて)は、話に勢いをつけるいいフレーズです。
