"Quick! Quick! Remove the motorbikes from
the shop," someone shouted loudly.
Then a thick burning smell f the air. When Jim opened the front door of
their apartment to have a close look, a thick cloud of smoke g him. The motorbike shop had caught fire and
people were running and crying.
Mary, Jim's elder sister, who had been playing
the violin in her room, hurried to the living room. They rushed out of the door

the smoke.
They were heading towards the stairway at the
far end of the corridor when Mary suddenly stopped. She turned around and
headed back the way they came. Tom had no idea what she was doing, but had to f her. Mary had suddenly remembered the lady in
her 70s living next door to them, who they called Makcik. She began h Makcik's door loudly, but got no answer. As
the smoke became thicker and thicker around them, Jim could see many of their n——some still in their pajamas(睡衣)running for getting away from the fire.

violently(猛力地)again
and again, shouting, "Go downstairs. Go now! Go!"
