F1 is a very car race. It is one of the most popular sports in the world. The drivers go at over 300 kilometers an hour every race, but F1 cars didn’t always go so fast.

In 1859, the first F1 race began in France. During that race, it took the drivers 48 hours to finish 580 kilometers. In 1901, the best drivers had an average(平均)speed of 100 kilometers an hour. Modern grand prix F1 racing began in 1950 in Britain. Grand prix is French. It means “large prize”. Today, 12 teams and 24 drivers race to get points. There are races at different tracks all over the world from March to October every year. There is also F2 and F3 racing. But the cars are slower and less high-tech(高技术的).

During an F1 race, drivers have to make several stops to change tyres and put more petrol in their cars. A team of people do these takes together to make the stops short. Some people lift the car up. Others change the tyres. While this team works on the tyres, another person puts petrol in the car and a different person cleans the driver's helmet. One more person talks to the driver about how to win. It’s amazing that all those people finish it in just a few seconds!

During 100-meter races, people count the athletes' speed by 1/100th (0.01) of a second, for example, 10.81 seconds. In the world of car racing, however, the race has to be timed to 1/1,000th (________) of a second. That is 50 times faster than the time for a blink!

F1 cars look very colorful. First, cars of different teams have different colors. Then there are a lot of advertisements on the cars.

One day, a farmer was walking along a road with his son Thomas. The father said, “Look! There’s a horseshoe. Pick it up and put it in your bag.” Thomas said, “It isn’t worth the trouble.” His father said nothing but he picked it up himself. When they got to a nearby town, they had a rest. There the farmer sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some grapes.

It was very hot, and there wasn’t a house or a tree where they could have a rest. Thomas felt too thirsty to walk on.
