Lesson 69 The car race¶
There is a car race near our town every year. In 1995, there was a very big race. There were hundreds of people there. My wife and I were at the race. Our friends Julie and Jack were there, too. You can see us in the crowd. We are standing on the left. There were twenty cars in the race. There were English cars, French cars, German cars, Italian cars, American cars and Japanese cars. It was an exciting finish. The winner was Billy Stewart. He was in car number fifteen. Five other cars were just behind him. On the way home, my wife said to me, 'Don't drive so quickly! You're not Billy Stewart!'
我们镇附近每年都有一次汽车比赛。1995年举行了一次非常大型的比赛。有数以百计的人在场。我和妻子也观看了比赛。 我们的朋友朱莉和杰克也在那里。你可以在人群中看到我们。 我们站在左边。比赛中有20辆汽车。有英国车、法国车、德国车、意大利车、美国车和日本车。结尾激动人心。获胜者是比利·斯图尔特。 他在15号车里。其他5辆车紧随其后。在回家的路上,我妻子对我说,"别开得这么快!你不是比利·斯图尔特!"
