“No! ” Heather shrieked as the car careened off the pavement and plunged into a gully,charging toward a group of trees.

“啊不!”希瑟尖叫起来。她的车冲出了路面，一下子扎进一个隘谷之中，冲向一片树林。

C’ mon! he cried, lifting the dashboard from Heather ’ s lap and sliding his arms beneath her shoulders. But he couldn’t wrench her free.
