                                        Faster than sound

Once a year a race is held for old cars. A lot of car entered for this race last year and there was a great deal of excitement just before it began. One of the most handsome cars was a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. The most unusual car was a Benz, which had only three wheels. Built in 1885 it was the oldest car taking part. After a great many loud explosions, the race began. Many of the cars broke down on the course and some drivers spent more time under their cars than in them! Nevertheless, a few cars completed the race. The winning car reached a speed of 40 miles an hour – much faster than any of its rivals. It sped downhill at the end of the race and its driver had a lot of trouble trying to stop it. The race gave everyone a great deal of pleasure.
