    B.the fears left by their fathers
    C.the cars left by their fathers
    D.the heritage left by their fathers

    本文讲的是赛车，第二段中讲到“Two young drivers…raced in theirfirst 500 in l968．Less than 20 years before，their fathers also competed against one another on the Indy track--and died there．”可知赛车手无形的伤疤指的是他们父亲留下的遗憾。所以A项正确。

    What does “In rude health” in the first sentence of paragraph 3 probably mean?

    正确答案： Strong and healthy.
    解析：

    正确答案： D
    解析：
