How pleasant that day was! The temperature was fairly low, the sky was pretty clear and the wind was very gentle. Naturally, running was really good. I was running the first leg of a 20-mile race through some hills. Birds were warbling /ˈwɔːbl/(鸟鸣) in the trees. The gentle wind was stroking/strəʊk/(轻抚,抚摸) my face. I felt at ease and full of energy. In spite of the fact that the race was occurring in the hills, I thought it would be wonderful.
那是多么愉快的一天啊!气温很低,天空很晴朗,风也很温和。当然,跑步真的很好。我正在跑20英里赛跑的第一段,要穿过一些小山。鸟儿在树上啼叫。微风轻抚着我的脸。我感到很轻松,精力充沛。尽管比赛是在山上进行的,但我认为这将是一场精彩的比赛。

In front of me was John, a student from Green High school. He was running with ease and at comfortable speed. Therefore, I decided to stay where he was. I didn't think it necessary to concentrate on setting my own pace, since John was such a nice pacesetter/ˈpeɪssetə/(定跑速的人). I would run before him, immediately he consumed all of his energy.
站在我前面的是约翰,一位格林高中的学生。他跑得很轻松,速度也很舒服。因此,我决定留在他所在的地方。我认为没有必要集中精力设定自己的节奏,因为约翰是一个很好的定跑速的人。我跑在他前面,他立刻耗尽了所有的精力。

I ran after John closely. The course extended north for 7 miles, wandered west for 2 miles, and turned south again. The race was getting increasingly challenging. When 4 miles remained to be covered, I was all but worn out. My lungs were burning and legs seemed broken.
我紧追着约翰跑。比赛路线向北延伸了7英里,向西延伸了2英里,然后又向南转弯。比赛变得越来越具有挑战性。当还有4英里要走的时候,我已经筋疲力尽了。我的肺在燃烧,腿似乎断了。

John overtook (超过,赶上) the boy ahead of him. Obviously, they were familiar with each other, because they exchanged some words. Their brief exchange made me worried. Runners don't chat during a race unless they feel really good and John was running energetically. His steps were bouncy/ˈbaʊnsi/(弹性好的) while my springiness
/ˈsprɪŋɪnɪs/(轻快, 弹性) was gone.
约翰超过了他前面的那个男孩。显然,他们彼此很熟悉,因为他们交换了一些话。他们简短的交流
