It was raining heavily as I was walking up the hill towards the station at six o’clock on

a Saturday morning. At this early hour there wasn’t much traffic and there weren’t many people.

Just as I was crossing the road near the top of the hill, a car came around the corner. It was

traveling very fast. Suddenly it hit a lamp post(路灯柱)and turned over.

I ran to the car to help the driver at once. He was badly hurt and there was a lot of blood

on his face. A young woman hurried into the station and phoned for an ambulance(救护车)while

I took care of the driver. Many people came to see what happened. A policeman arrived a few minutes

later and asked me a lot of questions about the accident. After a while the ambulance arrived

and the driver was sent to the hospital.

On Monday morning I went to the hospital to see the man. The doctor told me that he was much

better, and he would leave the hospital after a few days’rest.
