One afternoon, however, a fast, open car came up behind her so silently and so fast that she did not hear it until it was only a few yards from her. She was singing some of her highest and most difficult notes at the time, and as the car passed her, she saw an anxious expression suddenly come over its drivers face. He put his brakes on violently, and as soon as the car stopped, jumped out and began to examine all his tires carefully.
Mrs. Jones did not dare to tell him what the noise he had heard had really been, so he got back into his car and drove off as puzzled as he had been when he stopped.

29. What was Mrs. Jones very fond of?
30. What did she do about her weakness?
31. Where did she practice?
