How long have you been racing, Tressa?

They’re quite small.
Really? How many drivers are there in a race?
There are only nine drivers in a race.
Nine drivers! That is small.
Broke Down
Hey Ben...
Yeah?
Can you help me get my bike in the truck?
Yeah. Sorry your bike broke down.
That’s alright, there’s a shop not far from here.
Ben & Joshua
What broke your window?
Well, my neighbors were playing baseball...
How many players were there?
There were four or five players.
So, who broke it?
Maybe Maya. She can throw really fast.
Wendy & Michael
Wendy, where do you park near your apartment?
I park in the parking garage, on the 6th floor.
How many floors are there?
Um, I think there are ten floors. How many floors does your parking garage have?
I park on the street.
That's nice.
Yeah, it's not very easy to find a spot though.
