On September 21st, 2007, I witnessed a fire accident on Zhongyuan Road on my way to the supermarket.
It was around five o'clock in the afternoon and the wind was so strong. Hardly had I got to a major
crossrod when I heard people shouting "Fire, fire", and I stopped. A two-storied house across the
street was on fire, and I dialed 119 quickly. The fire brigade came immediately and brought the sit-
uation under control quickly. The fire was put out half an hour later, and no serious damage was do-
ne.
In my eyes, the major responsibility for this accident was not human-related. It was because of the
aged-wire that the accident took place. The weather is also to blame--if the wind had not been so s-
trong, the consequence would not have been so serious.
