14.An Unexpected Storm
This is a story about an extreme storm in Moscow.It happened two and a half years ago.It was the first time in my life that I saw such a strong storm.For Moscow,it was very unusual,and nobody predicted this storm before it happened.
It was a sunny day in July,and I was at home alone watching TV.The windows and the door to the balcony were wide open because the weather was so hot.
Suddenly,I felt a strong wind from outside.I wanted to close the window and came near.I looked out of the window and saw a black sky and trees blowing over because of the strong wind.I tried to close the window,but the wind made me fall down.I was afraid that the glass might break.
I stood up and tried to close the window again,but it was not possible because the wind was now stronger,and it was pushing the window open.I ran into the bathroom and took the mop to close the window.It worked.
When I looked outside,the tree in front of my window was fiat on the ground,and there was strong thunder and lightning.I decided to pull out all the electrical plugs,which took about 10seconds.A sportsman would have envied my speed.
When I finished,I looked outside.It was terrible,and I understood how people are helpless compared to the power of nature.
Suddenly,the wind stopped,and it began to hail (下冰雹).The ice was the size of grapes.After 10minutes,everything stopped,and the sun shone as before.It was strange.A few minutes later,the phone began to ring every five minutes.It was my friends or relatives.We asked each other how it was and how we felt after the storm.
Many trees died because of the storm.For a few days,the people helped clean parks and gardens.Some people's cars were damaged by trees falling on them.After one week,it was history already.This is my story about an extreme storm in Moscow.It shows us that we are children of nature,and we must respect her.
