It was 3:43. Thunder was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed 11 my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up!” He
shouted and 12 me by the shoulders. That woke me up! I ran downstairs to the basement（地下室）. It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to 13 things and take them upstairs. I had no shoes on, so my feet felt quite cold.
Things got 14 every minute. Within the next hour, we had moved everything that we could to the first floor.

There was nothing we could do.
Knowing that your home is being destroyed is bad enough, but realizing that you can’t do anything to 16 it feels even worse. Water had come in our front door. Rescue（营救） boats were floating in our streets. Mother told 17 to pack an overnight bag of clothes and valuables and get ready to leave.
When it was 18 safe to walk outside, all the people in the neighbourhood gathered at the street corner. People became friends, 19 friends became like family. People comforted（安慰） each other. We learnt later that the storm became a flash flood.
I really have learnt 20 from this flood. I’ve learnt what destruction（毁灭） is and what safety means. I know in the future, when I watch people’s lives affected by natural disasters, I can understand them. I will show my great pity on them and try my best to help them.
