Question

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）

Now it was Jerry's turn. And Jerry would ride Wild Lady! I watched Jerry in the cute.

Jerry dropped down on the horse's back. He was ready to go. "Outside!" He called.

The gate of the cute opened. And then nothing. Wild Lady didn't move. What was the matter?

Suddenly Wild Lady jumped out like a tiger. She jumped—with all four feet off the ground. She was quick, still I could see Jerry's spurs（马刺）. He had them in the right place.

Again Wild Lady jumped, kicking and turning. Then she began a quick turn. Now I knew why all the riders were afraid of her. Around and around she went. Again and again she dug her front legs into the ground and kicked up behind. Jerry's neck moved back each time the horse jumped.

Now Wild Lady was turning fast—so fast that Jerry looked like part of her. Once I saw Jerry bounce（弹起）up high, off to one side. "That's it!" I thought. But no! She was still riding.

I was trying to count off the seconds with my fingers. But I was lost in the watching. I dug my nails（指甲）into my hand until it hurt. Wild Lady jumped higher and higher.

Again the horse threw Jerry into the air. The people around me stood up. I couldn't see what was happening. But I heard, "Come on!" That was Jerry landing on the horse's back. Everybody was shouting. And they were still shouting when the bell rang. It was all over, Jerry had stayed on that horse for eight long seconds.

Now I had seen Jerry ride. I don' know how he felt while he was on that horse. But I know how I felt watching him. That eight seconds was a long time for Jerry. It was a long time for me too!
