" someone shouted. I 3 the others to the door but we couldn't get out. I stayed under a desk, covering my head and neck with my arms. " Will someone 4 me if the building falls down? Is this the end for me? " I kept thinking about that.
Several minutes later, the shake stopped. Two of my workmates tried to 5 the door again, and they made it! We ran 6 to the street. It was such a mess that we couldn't believe our eyes—the street was full of debris(残骸) and broken wood. More and more people came out and many were injured. Lots of them did 7 but look up into the sky in shock.
We walked a long way home not saying much. Some were praying and some were crying. 8 in such a situation was difficult. Our phones didn't work because of the earthquake. So it was 9 to find out if our friends were OK. I had no way of letting my family in China 10 that I was still alive. I just hoped that they wouldn't hear about the earthquake until tomorrow.
