Some time ago, a friend working in a part of the city I did not know very well, invited me to visit him. It took me hours to get there and I drove round and round looking for a place to park my car. At last I found a place in a back street. As I was already half an hour late, I parked my car quickly and hurried off on foot. Making my way rapidly along the street, I could not help thinking that it was much easier to walk than to drive.
At noon, I left my friend's office. It suddenly stuck me that I had no idea where I had parked my car. Walking down street after street, I examined each car closely and was greatly relaxed to see a small green car just behind an old truck. But how disappointed I was to discover that though the car was very much like my own, it belonged to someone else. Quite tired now, I was ready to give up the search when I turned the corner. I nearly jumped with joy: my car was just in front of me !Why did the author park the car quickly?

November 9 is a time for us to learn a lot more about fire(火). This is what to do in a fire:
1. Shout out. Shout as loudly as you can, because people may be asleep.
2. Call 119. Never try to put out a fire yourself. Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire.
3. Keep down close to the floor. There is less smoke down there, so it's easier to breathe and see where you are going.
4. Test the door. If the door is cool, open it carefully. If the door is hot, do not open it! Try to find a different way out.
5. Get out. Do not stop to pick up anything. A fire can become very big in a few seconds!
