聽錄音,然后回答問題。哪輛車在1995年的比賽中獲勝?
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 cares, 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!'

在我們鎮(zhèn)子附近每年都有一場汽車比賽。1995年舉行了一次盛大的比賽。 許許多多人都去了賽場。我和我的妻子也去了。我們的朋友朱莉和杰克也去了。你可以在人群中看到我們。我們站在左面。 參加比賽的有20輛汽車。有英國、法國、德國、意大利和日本的汽車。 比賽的結尾是激動人心的。獲勝者是比利.斯圖爾特。他在第15號車里,其他5輛汽車跟在他后面。 在回家的途中,我妻子對我說:“別開得這樣快!你可不是比利.斯圖爾特!”
