阅读理解。 DENVER, COLORADO-What does it take to be a hero? In the case of live Denver children, it only takes
a cry for help. Here's the story of these five heroes as Gary Lewis, the man they helped, tells it.
"I like to work on my old car. It's my hobby. I wanted to put a new transmission (传动装置) in the car.
I put the car up on blocks (大块木头) because I wanted to get under it. I was trying to get the old transmission
out when suddenly the car moved forward and fell off the blocks. It came down on my chest. I couldn't
breathe."
"I tried to shout for help for about five minutes, but I almost could not breathe. Could anyone hear me?
Was I going to die? Then all of a sudden I heard some little children from the neighbourhood. They were
running to the car and saying,'What happened, sir?'"
"'Get help, please. I can't breathe,' I told them. One of the children ran to his house and told his mom to
call 911. Then, before I knew what was happening, all of the children were around the car. They used every
muscle (肌肉) in their bodies to lift (抬起) the car, and I was able to get out from under it."
Lewis got out from under the car with just a few cuts. He didn't even have to go to the hospital. "These
children are my heroes," he says. "I don't know how they did it, but I am lucky to be alive."
Raymond Brown, father of two of the children, is very proud of them. "We try to teach them to do the
