ReplyDeleteHello, Phil. I knew F. A dead heat is no. 5. It is used for the almost same meaning as a tied race in Japanese (デッドヒート). But I did not know the meanings of the others before I checked them in a dictionary. A is 7. B is 4. C is 3. D is 2. E is 8. G is 1. H is 9. I is 10. J is 6. Thank you for a good quiz:)
