It was very windy when I woke up last Tuesday morning. As soon as I set off for the airport, it began to rain heavily. What a great way to start a holiday!

While I was driving to the airport, the storm got worse. Suddenly, a huge flash of lightning struck a tree. It came straight down just meters in front of my car. The fallen tree completely blocked(堵塞)the road, so I was stuck. I tried to call for help on my mobile, but the line was dead.

I was sure that I’d miss my plane, so I turned on the radio and tried to get used to the idea. Soon there was a loud knock at the window. To my surprise it was a young man in leather clothes, “ Need a ride?” he asked. My plane was leaving in an hour so I didn’t think twice. I took my bags, climbed carefully onto the motorcycled and shouted, “ To the airport please!”

It was my first time on a motorcycle so I was badly frightened. The young man drove so fast that I kept my eyes shut all the way. Suddenly, the motorcycle came to a stop. “ Here we are, sir!” he said. I looked at my watch and there was only ten minutes left. I was just in time for my flight. The young man wished me a nice trip, then quickly drove away.
