It was so cold that I couldn’t feel my legs. There was going to be a racing contest that night so I was 36 my horse, Skippy, up. I was simply running laps(跑道的圈) around the ring. The 37 cold air had been blowing past me, freezing my limbs, but every second I 38 it. You could hear the faint 39 of the people up at the clubhouse eating their dinner. My parents were also there, not knowing that my little sister had slowly wandered her way down to the ring. It was 40 because there was no moon or stars. Nobody else was in the ring at the time. I was really enjoying the 41 and I was able to 42 what Skippy was doing. As I took my last lap it 43 . Everything rapidly slowed down as I saw my little sister step 44 th e ring. I saw true fear on her face because she knew she wouldn’t be 45 to move out of the way fast enough. She knew that she was going to get hit. She tried to 46 but nothing came out of her fear-dried throat. When my horse got to her, he was still in a full out run. 47 , miraculously(奇迹般地), he slid so hard on his back feet that he 48 . It really made th e 49 s eem absolutely unreal. I thought that maybe I was 50 . I had 51 in my mind that I wasn’t seeing what was happening. I knew I had hit my sister. There was no way I could have 52 her. My horse was rising straight up and while he was in the air I couldn’t breathe. It’s like I forgot 53 . As all of this happened I watched my sister’s face transform (变形) through many different 54 : terror, confusion, curiosity, and then a sort of relief. Then she was laughing.
As I held my sister into my arms, Skippy stood right behind me knowing that I actually owed him my life 55 he saved my sister’s.
