Vulnerable city

This is a vulnerable city.Many things became paralysed because of a heavy rain.

I stood under the roof for nearly 1 hour,waiting for the bus of our housing estate.A long queue lined up in front of the plaza's door and aroused many people's curiosity.We waited as usual,but the bus didn't arrive until 22:05 behind the usual schedul,and there came just one bus!

Everyone rushed into the bus to find a shelter,I didn't have an umbrella so that I couldn't even get to the bus,if I did,I would be wringing. The bus was crowded as a sardine can,I had to wait for the next one.

More than 20 munites later,the other bus came finally,the bus driver told us that many streets had been flooded,and they had been caught in a heavy traffic jam."Kangcheng has been a water city!."

Some people began to scold our mayor. So what? The whole big city is a failure! Can we rebuild another one?
