Friendship in a Car Race

There were small wild cars that would drive freely around the countryside. So the wild car races became very famous. Everyone _______ about driving them in the races. For boys, their light weights and their honesty made them ideal (理想的) drivers. As it was difficult to find light children with such good hearts, competitions were held to discover new _______ once a year.

During the wait, many boys rehearsed (排練) and practiced a lot. Unfortunately a great deal of elbowing (用肘推) and pushing told that not all were as good as they _______ when the gates were opened.

When Nick's turn came, he rushed into a car. He was so excited that he hardly noticed a boy with crutches(拐杖)waiting behind him. Then he heard the head of the testing team say, "I'm very _______ , there are no cars left, and this is the last test of the day." Seeing the boy's deep sadness, Nick quickly got out of his car and said, "It's OK. He can have my _______ ."

The boy got in, filled with joy. But before setting off, he saw the sad expressions on Nick's face and he _______ out his hand, saying, "Get in. We'll go together, even though it'll make us a bit slower."

Nick jumped in. Their car sounded like a rocket (火箭)! The race broke all known records, and during that season Nick and his friend won every competition they entered, _______ their friendship and good wishes to every corner of the world.
