　　An Exciting Race

　　Once a year a field and track sports meet is held in our school.This year it took place on 22nd.Over six hundred people，including teachers and students，entered for this meet.

　　It was the last day of the sports meet. At about three o＇clock in the afternoon，there came a voice from the speaker:“Next item is the girl＇s 400-metre relay race.Runners please get everything ready!”On hearing this，the four girl runners of our class，Helen，Jane，Nora and Dinah， gathered quickly by the track and did some warming-up exercises①.With strong determination，Dinah said to her teammates，“We should win honour for our class and put up a good show.” After some time，teams from six other classes were entered.“On your marks，”the starter ② ordered。 Then came the pistol shot③. At the sound of it，the first runners shot from their starting points.Many eyes turned to a thin sixteen-year-old girl named Helen who started very fast and became the first one.Soon the second runners already moving，grabbed ④ the sticks and raced on.Nora， the third runner had the stick and took the lead。 Already running，Dinah reached for the stick.She was flying three or four steps ahead of the others.Dinah urged herself，“Faster! Faster!” We cheered for her，shouting at the top of our voice.Bit by bit，she pulled quite ahead.It was too late for the others to close the gap and we all sighed with relief. At the finishing line，Dinah was the first one that reached the end.

　　When we at last received our certificate of award⑦，everyone in our class was smiling a happy smile.Though it was different from the champion of Olympic Games ⑧，we all thought that it was no less exciting.
