A Road Accident 

Last year, I happened to travel from Sialkot to Lahore with my father on coach. We had hardly covered a distance of 5 km when we saw a mini-bus coming from the opposite direction. Its driver could not control it on dangerous turn because of over speed. As a result the bus hit the right side of our coach and turned turtle. Its driver and three passengers died on spot. On the other hand, the driver of our coach did not lose his senses and kept the coach under control. The traffic on the road stopped. The passengers were screaming. Luckily, I was not injured. There was great weeping and crying. The dead bodies and injured persons were brought to the hospital. The dead bodies were handed over to their heirs. Whenever I remember the accident, I get frightened.

A House on Fire  

Last month, I was sleeping at night when I heard some persons crying “fire! Fire!” I got up and saw that a house in the street was on fire. The people were crying. It was a big house with a lot of wood used in it. Many people had gathered there and were throwing water to put out the fire. The inmates were saved but they were crying for help to save their property. I began to throw sand on the fire but it was in vain. After some time the fire brigade reached there. The fire was extinguished after one hour. Though, there was no loss of life but loss of property was very big. The inmates were weeping for that loss. Whenever I remember the incident, I get worried.
