It is the rainy season all over India. In the news we have seen heavy rain hit many parts of the country，which are already flooded(被淹没)．We have got used to floods.Children really enjoy the rain and the floods.They love playing with water.Sometimes they jump in the water and are always happy to do it.
However，this year it turned from bad to worse.All schools were closed，and it was announced a holiday by the government the previous day.We stayed indoors and watched life through our windows.Water entered the flats on the ground floor. All the neighbors helped people living there move their belongings and stayed with them.My friends were also staying with me.I was happy，because my parents usually don't allow me to stay in a friend's place.But our neighbors were really sad.They had to bear the loss(损失)that the rain brought.
The traffic was cut off by the terrible weather as well.In the morning，the railway system and bus services almost came to a stop.People had to wait for quite a long time at the railway stations and bus stops.My mother，who went by train，arrived three hours late.And finally when she reached her office，it was also announced a holiday.Later，to make the things worse，many trains were cancelled，because the railways were full of water.My mother had to wait in the station for about three hours.Afterwards she decided to go to a friend's house a block away from her office that day，as there was hardly any transportation available to our home.She called to tell us about it.She told me that she walked all the way to her friend's house because she could not get on a bus，and that she was wet thoroughly when she finally got there.On the phone she sounded very tired.
