[00:00.00]1.4 My friend Stephanie
[00:09.08]had an accident yesterday
[00:11.47]when she was returning from school.
[00:14.46]She was riding her bike on Wilson Street.
[00:18.78]She was riding behind a bus.
[00:21.75]She couldn't see very well
[00:24.30]because it was raining.
[00:26.49]Suddenly,a dog ran out into the road
[00:31.21]in front of the bus.
[00:33.10]The bus driver tried to stop.
[00:36.58]When Stephanie saw the bus stopping,
[00:39.70]she put her brakes on,
[00:42.02]but the road was wet
[00:44.19]and she wasn't able to stop in time.
[00:48.30]She hit the back of the bus
[00:51.21]and fell off her bike.
[00:53.71]For a few moments,she couldn't move.
[00:57.89]A pedestrian was walking on Wilson Street.
[01:02.25]She stopped to help Stephanie and,
[01:05.78]after a few minutes,she was able to stand up.
[01:09.98]Luckily,she wasn't badly hurt,
[01:13.51]just a bit shaken However,
[01:16.90]Stephanie's bike was broken,
[01:19.70]and she couldn't ride it home.
[01:22.26]However,she was very close to her house
[01:26.56]in fact she could see it
[01:29.04]from the scene of the accident
[01:31.79]so she was able to walk home with her bike.
