Describe your most significant group work experience including the role you played and your contributions. (200 words)

It was a hot summer's day in Dhaka. I was at a street market with my friend. The road was jammed with busy traffic and hordes of shoppers trying to get a bargain. On both sides lay street vendors selling just about everything from freshly-cut meat to bright red tomatoes piled high up before them.

Suddenly I heard a scream ! As I looked back, I saw burning flames and a thick cloud of smoke ! It was a fire ! The crowd began to panic. People started to run.

The fire wasn't that big but it was spreading quickly. A small group of people were trying to put out the fire with buckets of water. We quickly joined in with buckets of sand from a nearby construction site. My friend informed the fire service while I consoled this elderly lady who was in shock. The person beside me was providing first-aid to someone who had suffered from minor burns. As I heard the distant siren of fire trucks, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking back, I realize that there was no way the fire could've been put out by any single person. Clearly it was a group effort.

My friend hurried to inform the fire brigade while I attended to calm down an elderly lady who was in shock.

Looking back, I realize that there was no way the fire could've been put out by any single person. Clearly it was a group effort.

I like if you elaborated more on what you learned. If you have a word constraint, you can cut down on the details of the scene.
