I (listen) to some music in my room when I (hear) a loud bang in the street, so I (go) outside to investigate. The weather (be) terrible. The wind (blow) hard and it (rain) a lot. Then I (see) what the problem was. A motorbike (lie) on the ground next to a tree. Suddenly somebody (say) ‘Please help me.’ I (look) around and there was the motorcyclist, also on the ground.
