Dear all,
What's the meaning of the underlined?
Thanks in advance.
...Perhaps you can imagine what it meant when, one fine day, fortune smiled on Grandfather. He got himself in a trainwreck[FONT=宋]![/FONT]
Now, if something like that happened to you (and you survived) you had it made. The railroad would pay! So all of the lucky passengers knew exactly what to do; they commenced to groan piteously and writhe upon the ground while waiting for the doctors and stretcher bearers to arrive.
