"Winning is everything!" That was my sister Susan's favorite saying. She always won at everything. In 1 opinion, there were only two groups — winners and losers.
For me, I really didn't care much about winning. That was why our school's potato sack relay * was always a 2 for me. I disliked the relay. The teacher would choose a partner for us in the relay. But I 3 to have a partner!

My sister just didn't understand why I didn't want to 4. "You're not bad at sports, Sonia. You just don't care." she said. Maybe she was right. I should be careful.
On the morning of the relay, I got a big surprise when the teacher announced * 5. "The next pair will be Sonia and Alex." Alex? He was the new kid in our grade.
