037.
It was March 2nd and the weather was very cold. Mr. Smith felt sick and went to bed at half past eight. Suddenly he was woken up by a great noise. He smelt something strange. He looked at the clock on the wall. It was only five to ten. At first he didn't know what was happening. He looked outside and found the building in which he lived was on fire. Quickly he put on his clothes and jumped out of bed. Then he left his room and ran to the stairs. When he came out of the building, he found he even forgot to bring his hat with him. Now he knew the fire broke out on the tenth floor just below his room and he had little time to run away for life.
