    1. Nice story Zainab! A couple of things that can be done:
      Firstly, you don't have to start most of your sentences with then. Secondly, instead of "Suddenly he accidentally hit the heater on fire" you can rephrase it to maybe, "He accidentally knocked of the burning heater and it fell on some old boxes and sheets under it, which in no time started a big fire." Try to explain your ideas more clearly and in more detail, so the reader can picture your story in their mind.
      Alex friends (wrong) - Alex's friends (correct). And the people were not surprised they were shocked!
      Alex's mother and father came.... and saw a child in the burning table.
      ... and had a minor surgery.
      Go through the corrections Zainab and write the story correctly in your creative Writing. ;-)

  2. A Fire Fighter Saving a Child
    A fire incident occurred right across my house. It is the biggest apartment build in our area. The apartments are full with big families living there.
    It was last Sunday when we heard loud screaming in the middle of the night. My parents and other neighbours came out on the street. An apartment on the second was in huge fire. The building residents were already out and standing on the street. None could do anything because it was night and the fire was furious. Somebody had already called the fire department. The fire engine arrived in couple of minutes. The firefighters were in full uniform and had brought their tools with them. They pulled out the ladder and stretched it to the apartment window. Two firefighters climbed up, broke the window glass with the axe in their hand and jumped inside. While the other two pulled out a long hose and started throwing water on the fire.
    Everybody was standing silent with tears in their eyes as they were not sure if anyone from that family will survive. Five minutes later, the firemen appeared from the building gate carrying a six month old baby boy and a six year old girl in their lap. A woman was following them in rush. Everybody clapped for their survival. The firemen ran back to save the father who, according to them, was lying fainted because of the smoke. The mother told us that her husband was trying to put out the fire and was suffocated due to the heavy smoke. While the mother brought children out in the living room but couldn’t find the way out of the apartment.
    Ten minutes later, the firemen appeared holding the father from both sides. Everybody was happy. The father needed the medical treatment and my father had already called the ambulance. The ambulance arrived soon and they took care of the family. Everybody appreciated the firefighters for their quick and brave efforts.
    We all were curious to know how the fire started. The mother told us that because of the cold, they closed all the doors and windows and left the heater near the window. The curtain somehow caught the fire. They woke up late and tried to save themselves but failed.
    The whole neighbourhood thanked to God that the family was okay. The family thanked everyone for being kind and courteous. Few women among the crowd were holding the baby and kissing him one by one.

  10. Samuel and the great fire
    Once there was a five year old boy called Samuel. One day Samuel’s parents had to go out and do some work, so Samuel’s parents hired a babysitter called Jane. When Jane went to the bathroom, Samuel went downstairs and started playing with matches. Suddenly! He made a fire! Samuel dashed upstairs and started banging on the bathroom door. Jane came out the bathroom and said “what’s the matter.”In reply Samuel said “fire downstairs, fire downstairs.”As Jane looked downstairs she saw lots and lots of fire. Then she said to herself “my phone is downstairs,” so that’s when Samuel had the window open and was shouting at the top of his voice “help.”Jane saw what he was doing and started shouting as well. Both of them shouted with so much volume that they attracted one of their neighbours. The neighbours then called the fire brigade. In less than two minutes the fire brigade arrived at Samuels’s house. It was hard work but the fire men finally saved Samuel and Jane. But Jane and Samuel didn’t have anywhere to stay so they went round houses and asking for a place to stay. One kind neighbour said they could stay in their house for as long as they liked. At 5 o'clock Jane used the land line phone and called Samuels parents and told them where they were. In about half an hour Samuels’s parents arrived and put Samuel to bed, then thanked their neighbours for letting them stay and finally started to have a chat with Jane about the fire and how the fire started.

  11. The unexpected fire

Sarah was considered old enough to take care of her 4 year old brother. Mark invited his friend , Max to play with him.

    Sara was busy on her Ipod and the children were playing with trikes. While chasing each other , they bumped into deep freezer where there was a glass of water. The water spilled and went into the freezer’s circuits and started fire. The children got excited by the fire ;they didn’t know what it was and they thought it was some kind of magic.

    While the sister was fast asleep, the children got very hyper and started to throw objects into the fire, they threw lots of things like milo cartons, match boxes, paper, sticks, oil, fruits, jellies and all of the phones. The sister woke up when the fire spread across the entire kitchen, in a panic she started throwing water from buckets and the fire stopped burning but what she didn’t notice was that there was still some fire left and it was close to a big jug of oil and alas! The fire reached the oil and everything in the kitchen started burning again.
    The people who lived down stairs in the basement woke up by children's screams,they immediately called 911.The fire had re-combusted because of oil and the children were trapped inside the house.

    The firefighters came and could not save the house from burning because their pipes were no match for the big blaze. The firefighters called back-up and soon more trucks came and the burning house was no longer burning.

    The Great Fire

    When the baby was playing, he pushed the heater and it fell on the carpet so it caught fire. The fire made the room fill up with smoke. The child shouted for help.

    When the child’s parents saw the fire they tried to get in but the fire had spread and they had to run out for help. They went to the neighbour’s house and they told them about their emergency. They asked them to quickly call the fire brigade. It took about 5 minutes till two fire trucks arrived. The ten firemen got the long water pipes out and sprayed water on the fire.

    3 of the men went inside the house to search for the little child. The fireman with the bearded face found the baby next to a table on the second floor. He picked him up and took him down but the fire was too much. He then went up to the roof and called to the other firemen to send up a ladder to get them down.

    The ladder was hard to climb down so a fireman came up the ladder and took the baby down and then helped the other fireman come down.

    The baby was reunited with his family and they all were very thankful to the firemen for saving their lives.
