2 There was a bad accident this morning. One driver died, the other driver was badly injured, and both cars were badly damaged.
3 In the morning, the traffic jam starts at about 7 o'clock and goes on until at least 9.30. Then it starts again about 4.30 in the afternoon.
4 It was raining, so when I pushed the brake the car didn't stop quickly enough, and I bumped into the back of the car in front.

6 The car didn't start, so I phoned a garage and they sent someone to repair it.

B:Oh, hi there A. OK.

B:I agree with you.
