                                 a. An Accident I Witnessed

a bus to Pokhara from Kathmandu - 54 passengers - rainy day - at 6 a.m. - collide with a truck - damage to both vehicles - 10 deaths - 15 injured - rest unharmed - pool of blood.

Last week, I went to Pokhara to meet my relatives. Early in the morning, I started my journey from Kathmandu. My bus left on time. While we were travelling, it was raining heavily. As we reached Naubise, our bus driver accidentally (एक्कासी) jammed on the brakes to stop. I watched through the window and saw that there was a long queue of vehicles. As we got off the bus, we were informed that two vehicles collided each other.

As I heard it, I was extremely excited (उत्तेजित) to know what really happened. I rushed to the spot where a bus and a truck collided (ठोकियो) with each other. I knew that the bus was going Pokhara carrying 54 passengers. It met with the accident at 6 am; some unharmed passengers told me. Both of the vehicles were badly damaged as they fell 70 feet below the road. Unfortunately nine of the bus passengers and the driver of the truck died on the spot. Fifteen of them were badly injured. They were immediately taken to hospitals. Fortunately, rest of the passengers were unharmed. We saw that there was pool of blood which made my eyes water. We were blocked there for an hour and then moved ahead to our destination (लक्ष).

                                   a. Domestic Animals:

The animals such as cows, goats, horses, buffaloes, etc. are domestic animals. They are tamed (पालिन्छ) by human beings. Domestic animals are used to living (बस्ने बानी परेका) at our houses. We like them very much because they are lovable (माया लाग्दो), innocent and ignorant (अनभिज्ञ). They obey (पालन गर्नु) our orders if they are properly trained.

Domestic animals are kept for various purposes because they are very useful to us. They help us in many ways such as by giving milk, manure (मल), etc. They can be used as the means of transport, too. Horses, mules (खच्चर), sheep, and so on carry our goods from one place to another. Some of the useful animals are cows, buffaloes, goats, sheep, mules, dogs, rabbits and so on. Some animals are kept as a pets (सोखको लागि पालिने) which are not very useful. They are mainly cats, rabbits, dogs, deer, etc.

The useful domestic animals provide us with various types of services. The cows, buffaloes, sheep, goats provide us milk, meat, manure and transportation. The dog guards our residence. It is very faithful (विश्वासी), too. The horses are mainly used as the means of transport. Some rich people in the plain regions keep elephants too. They are also useful for us. Although the domestic animals are very useful, they can be dangerous if they are not properly trained.
