高三英语阅读理解限时训练(6)
A
Suddenly all the lights on that crowded underground train went out.Then it stopped in that dark tunnel.
We waited. We expected the lights to come on again soon.But nothing happened.Then I began to smell something.Yes, I could smell smoke.So 1 asked myself, "Is this train on fire?" People around me then began to cry out in fear."The train is on fire!" they cried.
Then the woman standing next to me suddenly fell on the floor.I realized she was overcome by the smoke.Then I saw flames appearing."If something does not happen soon," I said to myself, "I will be burnt alive!"
But as I stood there in the dark in that crowded burning train, I could see no way to escape.I thought, "No one can save me from certain death but God.Only God can make a way for any of us to escape death in this train."
