2019中考英语：Alas，I Am Too Careless

昨天晚上，我帮妈妈蒸馒头。过了一会儿，爸爸问我“你放了多少水呀?”“水?噢，天哪!我忘了放了!”我回答说。“什么?你忘了?!”爸爸惊叫一声跑进厨房，关掉煤气，迅速将那口快烧焦的锅放进水里冷却。幸好没有发生危险。“如果我来迟一步，就会发生火灾了。”爸爸说。而我呆呆地站在那里，吓得一句话也说不出。

"It ould have been on fire if I hadn't noticed it in ti. "Father said. But I just stood there, too scared to say anything.
