used her mobile phone to talk to her family and to news reporters. She stayed in the tree day and night.

her. The company used a helicopter that stayed near her treehouse for a long time. The helicopter was
very noisy and there was a lot of wind. Julia didn't like it, but she stayed in the tree.

     DENVER, COLORADO-What does it take to be a hero? In the case of live Denver children, it only takes
a cry for help. Here's the story of these five heroes as Gary Lewis, the man they helped, tells it.
     "I like to work on my old car. It's my hobby. I wanted to put a new transmission (傳動(dòng)裝置) in the car.
I put the car up on blocks (大塊木頭) because I wanted to get under it. I was trying to get the old transmission
out when suddenly the car moved forward and fell off the blocks. It came down on my chest. I couldn't
breathe."
     "I tried to shout for help for about five minutes, but I almost could not breathe. Could anyone hear me?
Was I going to die? Then all of a sudden I heard some little children from the neighbourhood. They were
running to the car and saying,'What happened, sir?'"
     "'Get help, please. I can't breathe,' I told them. One of the children ran to his house and told his mom to
call 911. Then, before I knew what was happening, all of the children were around the car. They used every
muscle (肌肉) in their bodies to lift (抬起) the car, and I was able to get out from under it."
     Lewis got out from under the car with just a few cuts. He didn't even have to go to the hospital. "These
children are my heroes," he says. "I don't know how they did it, but I am lucky to be alive."
     Raymond Brown, father of two of the children, is very proud of them. "We try to teach them to do the
right thing. This shows we're doing it the right way, I guess," he says.
1. The car fell off the blocks because _____.
