Sophie arrived at Teresa’s house and knocked on the door. There was

There was a terrible smell in the house. Sophie started to feel very

sick and her eyes were burning. She realised the smell was coming from

a storeroom next to the kitchen. She took off her scarf and held it over her

Part 2

There were tanks of pesticide in the storeroom. Teresa’s father used

the pesticide for the crops on the farm. The poisonous liquid was pouring

out of one of the tanks. Teresa was lying unconscious on the floor. Sophie

dragged Teresa by the arms across the kitchen and into the garden. She

felt better in the fresh air but Teresa was still unconscious. At

that

moment a neighbor was passing by.

He saw two girls. ”I’ll go and

telephone for help,” he said.

Suddenly Teresa opened her eyes.

“Are you all right? What happened?” Sophie asked.

“One of the tanks exploded. I heard the noise and went into the

storeroom. But I couldn’t breathe in there,” answered Teresa.
