Read the following reading text and choose the best answer to each question(from

He couldn't get Laura on the phone, so to her mother Tommy said:
”Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late. I've something to do that cannot wait”
He drove his car to the racing ground. He was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started to race
Around the truck they drove at a deadly pace
No one knows what happened that day, how his car overturned in flames
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
With his dying breath they heard him say
”Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry, my love for her will never die”
Now in the chapel (small church), Laura prayed for her Tommy who passed away
It was just for Laura that he lived and died alone. In the chapel she can hear him cry
