I must have dozed off round about dawn, for I was roughly wakened by Morag. \"Be off with you. The car's coming. \"
I ran upstairs, dragged Cathleen out of bed, and grabbed my rucksack and we ran to our bikes. We just managed to leave before the car came down the lane.
We came out of a thin wood into open fields, and my heart fell, for there were gates across the path. I fretted at the precious seconds that were lost in opening the first of them--the car was following us. But it was the gates that saved us. It takes longer to open a gate from a car than from a bicycle, and what we gained in this way made up for the extra speed of the car on the stretches between.
It must have looked a preposterous race to an onlooker. I would forge ahead, slide off on to one of the pedals, jump down, and half open the gates. Cathleen following behind would ride through and head for the next gate at full speed. Meanwhile I would slam the gate, making sure it was firmly shut. By the time I reached the next one, Cathleen would have it open and I would ride through and then head for the third, and so on. By this technique we kept the ear at bay, a couple of fields behind, and certainly out of shooting range.
At length we came to what I had been hoping for, a stout gate that simply couldn't be opened. I lifted the cycles over. This eost some time- I could see the ear catching up. But the great thing was that the car could not be lifted over, and to attempt to force a way through would be to risk damage and delay.
Looking back I saw that we had won. The big ear was being slowly turned. We were safe. Soon there would be ample cover near the main road--trees and bushes, in contrast to the open ground we were now crossing.
And so I allowed the pace to slacken, We didn't dawdle by any means, but travelled at a speed a little more suitable for a tired girl. But this was a mistake.
At first I thought the noise was being made by some farmer at work early. Soon I realized the noise was too loud for only one tractor. When We got to the top of a low hill I realized that four tractors were heading in our direction. They could travel faster than we could over the bumpy ground. The position was plainly desperate. All we could do was abandon our bikes as we could make better time now on foot.
We ran until I thought my lungs would burst, but at every stride the tractors came closer.
Next there came a long stretch of rough uphill ground. Everything depended on the other side of the hill. With a great effort we would be ahead when we reached the top. If there were enough bushes on the other side we should be safe. We arrived at the top. Ahead was a mile of open ground and not a bush or tree in sight. The tractors were certain to run us down.
21. The author and Cathleen were in a hurry because_____________ A. they wanted a lift in a car which was coming along the lane B. they believed their bicycles had been stolen C. they would miss the car and be late for work D. they wanted to escape from the car
22. The first gates were not a disadvantage because_____________ A. the car was too big to pass through them
B. they could open them more quickly from a bicycle
C. they allowed the bicycles to go faster on the stretches between D. they lost precious seconds in opening them
23. When they came to a stout gate the author_____________ A. was afraid because it could not be opened B. was pleased because it couldn't be opened
C. was unhappy because it took a long time to lift the bicycles over it D. was relieved that the ear had been damaged 24. The ground they were crossing_____________ A. was covered with trees and bushes B. hid them
C. had plenty of cover
D. was without any trees or bushes
25. They travelled more slowly because_____________

A. a farmer working early B. a single tractor
C. more than one tractor D. more than four tractors 27. They abandoned their bicycles because_____________ A. the tractors following them were slow B. they could travel faster without bicycles
C. they couldn't keep their bicycles and ride the tractors at the same time D. some farmers came to their rescue
28. They knew they would be safe if_____________
A. they were still in, front at the top of the hill B. there was cover on the other side of the hill
C. there were not too many bushes on the other side of the hill D. the tractors could reach them in time
29. \"we kept the car at bay\"means_____________ A. we stopped the car from catching up with us B. we made the car stop in a bay
C. we prevented the car from shooting at us
D. we made the car stop a couple of fields behind us 30. \"we could make better time\" means
