G: did you watch the final last night? My favorite singer won!
O: oh, I love him too. He not only sings well but shows perseverance when he encounters difficulties in the contest.
G: yeah, he got booted after his initial performance in the audition, but he did not give up. He then tried at another two auditions.
O: he had barely survived the third audition and finally got a chance to advance in the contest. Fortunately, in the third audition, he has won
popularity among the audience. And that's when I started to notice him.
G: me too.
O: before he made the top three, I was so nervous. I just fear that he might be knocked out.
G: yeah,there're so many excellent candidates out there. Who knows which one will make it to the final?
O: absolutely. That's why when he entered the final, I was so excited.
G: he really did a great job in the finale, especially in the PK round. He perfored so well that the majority of the audience cast their votes for him.
O: and the host announced that he won it all!
