World
Trade Center
September 11, 2001 is a date that everyone
remembers. The day started like every other day, calm and quite, but at that time
2 planes were being hijacked by a terrorists group. People were calmly boarding
the plane they had just taken in Boston and they had already taken off when a
group of terrorists from the Al-Qaeda started injuring flight attendants and
pilots. This was happening on two different planes. At 8:46 a.m. a plane
crashed into the North tower. Seventeen minutes later another plane crashed
into the southern tower. People that were still inside were jumping out through
the windows and most of the people stayed in there to wait to be saved. Then at
9:59 a.m. the southern tower collapsed. A lot of black dust was flowing all over
Manhattan and people were trying to get to some place where there was clean air.
People that were still watching the towers knew that the northern tower would
collapse any minute. Then at exactly 10:28 a.m., after burning for approximately
102 minutes, the northern tower fell. Other buildings were destroyed as well
like the 7 World Trade Center, and the 3 World Trade Center. This was a
horrible day for all Americans. We will always remember all those who died in
that horrible event and we will pray for all those who suffered during this
tragic event.
Reflection: I think that this was one of the
saddest days in the history of America. This tragedy made millions of people
suffer and thousands of people die in World Trade Center. I will never forget
this day and I will pray for all those who lost loved ones, lost lives, and for
those who managed to get out of the World Trade Center alive.
