AnAccident一次意外英语作文

An Accident 一次意外英语作文

Life is a vale of tears. It is a drama of pain. In this age of high

speed vehicles, accidents are very common. It is the mad craze

for speed which is generally responsible for all the accidents.

Only last week, I saw a very serious accident on the Ludhiana-

Chandigarh road. I was scootering down from Chandigarh. As I

was nearing Mohali. I saw bus going at a high speed. A car was

following it. The car driver wanted to overtake the bus as he tried

to do so, the vehicle collided against another car coming from

the opposite direction. Both the cars turned turtle. Four of the

occupants of the car were killed on the spot while another three

were badly injured. People working in the nearby fields rushed to

the scene of the crash. A few passengers of the bus were also

seriously injured as it had struck against a tree. I could not see

the mutilated and blood-stained bodies. I rushed to a telephone

booth and rang up the police and the hospital authorities.

Medical rescue party and the police reached the spot in a short

time. Some of the injured were provided first aid on the spot

while others were sent to the PGI at Chandigarh. The relatives of

the dead were informed. It was a heart-rending spectacle. There

were tears in every eye. Such accidents can certainly be avoided

if the drivers observe the rules of the road. Speed, no doubt thrills,

but it also kills. The golden rule to avoid accident is: ‘Safety first,

speed

afterwards.’

An Accident

It was summer and I was attending a function at the

International Youth Hostel in Diplomatic Enclave in New Delhi. It

was 9 P.M. and I was in haste to reach my house in Rajouri Garden.

As I was crossing a lawn （n. 草坪；草地）to reach the bust stand,

in the dark I stumbled（vi. 绊脚）over something and left off. I

lost my consciousness（意识, 观念, 觉悟）. Thereafter, I don’t

know what happened to me.

I came to consciousness at midnight in the Medical Institute

of India and wondered where I was. My arm was broken, wrist

fractured（断裂的）and armpit（n. 腋窝;胳肢窝）dislocated. I had

fallen into a deep pit （n. 深坑；矿井；陷阱；）and had become

unconscious. Some foreigner heard the thud（n. 重击声；砰的一

声）of my fall and he investigated the matter with a match stick.

Then he informed the President of the function Mr. Prasad, who

was still there on the premises and he knew me.

He took me out of the pit and took me to the Medical

Institute of India. He telephoned to my parents and just informed

them that I would not come home that night. An operation was

performed that night and my arm was put in plaster（n. 灰泥；石

膏；膏药）. Early next morning Mr. Prasad drove me home in his

car. He was in hospital with me throughout the night. He was the

Collector of Customs and had come straight from Bombay by air,

he had not gone home even.
