Question

"Get out of the plane!" Justin shouted．Teddy and he dropped to the ground,．．．

When Kathy and Victor reached the edge of the meadow （牧场）flames of the fire were shooting more than five meters into the air．

Kathy couldn't believe what she was seeing．One glance told her they needed medical attention immediately．She questioned Victor, "Are you able to find someone nearby for help?"

"There are no farmers, nor villagers nearby," he replied．

"I'm a distance runner, and I'll go for help．" Looking at the seriously injured men, Kathy said to Victor, "It may take me several hours to get out．" She started out．

When she was 23, Kathy set a women's record in a Marathon of 42 kilometers．But now she was running the race of life．She had nearly 30 kilometers of hard wilderness to cover to get help．

Kathy had been running for two hours．This was far back into the wilderness．The country path was growing vague （模糊）．She stopped to take a quick compass （指南针） reading．Yes, she had run almost for more than 20 kilometers．Her heart fell, her muscle aching．And finally she saw her car in the distance．

She jumped into the car and sped away．She reached a holiday house and called the police．

During the wait, she walked around, relaxing her legs and drinking water．It took almost two hours for a police helicopter to reach her at the trail （小路） end．They needed her for one more task．
