按照剑桥官方字典的解释，surprise一词的含义为the feeling caused by something unexpected，也就是说，只要是出乎意料的事情都可以作为描述对象。具体来说，我们可以聊聊参加某次竞赛意外获奖；也可以聊聊自己之前不知道的某个事实或者习俗，比如世界贫困人口的数量，西藏的天葬和活佛；还可以说说朋友做的一些事情，比如悄悄举办的生日聚会等。

The unexpected experience I am going to tell you about is that I achieved the meritorious winner, the third level of the award, in the Mathematical Contest in Modeling. It is an annually-held competition that originated in the United States, now attracting thousands of international teams of three undergraduates or postgraduates to participate. Candidates have to analyze the given question, establish a model for it and then write a formal academic paper within 96 hours.
我要告诉你的经历出乎意料的经历是，我在数学建模大赛中获得优异奖，也就是第三等级的奖项。它是一个发源于美国、每年都会举办的竞赛，现在吸引着上千支由3名本科生或者研究生组成的队伍参加。参赛者必须在96个小时里分析给定的题目，为它建立模型，并写出正式的学术论文。
It was the 15th of June in 2019, 4 months after we submitted our paper. According to the announcement on the official website of this contest, the organizer would release the list of winners on its homepage and send emails to every participant at 9 o’clock. I turned on the notification of my email box in case I missed any letter and had been refreshing the page from 8.45. When I was anxiously waiting for the loading, I received an email that started with congratulations.
那是2019年的6月15日，我们提交论文之后的四个月。根据比赛官网的公告，组织者会在9点的时候在主页发布获胜者的名单，并给每一个参与者发邮件。我打开收件箱的提醒，以防错过任何信件，并且从8.45就开始不停的刷新页面。当我还在焦急地等待载入的时候，我收到了一封以“恭喜”开头的邮件。
To be honest, although I devoted enormous effort to the competition, I had never expected I would win an award. After all, as a student majoring in social science, my specialty lay in analysis and essay writing rather than mathematics. This article is from Laokaoya website. I just could not help yelling out and swinging my arm in the air the moment I read the email. I jumped off my bed and went to celebrate this piece of good news with my teammates.
老实说，虽然我在这项竞赛上投入了大量的精力，但我从来都没有期待过能够获奖。毕竟，作为一名专业为社会科学的学生，我的特长在于分析和论文写作，而非数学。我看到邮件的一瞬间，禁不住喊了出来，在空中挥舞手臂。我跳下床，跑去跟我的队员庆祝这一好消息。
I was so excited, not only because it proved that we were better than most other teams around the world, but also because it would be a highlight on my resume, gaining me a sharp edge in the competitive labor market and helping me find a decent job.
我很激动，不仅仅因为它证明我们比世界上大多数队伍要优秀，还因为它会成为我简历上的一个亮点，为我在竞争激烈的劳动力市场上获取优势，并帮助我找到一个体面的工作。
