A few weeks back, I’ve almost ran into an accident. In the following I will tell you what exactly happened and how my friend saved my life.
I was waiting for the train at the train station with my good old friend by my side.
About 30 minutes later, the train finally arrived at the train station. However, we were on the other side of the station. We both ran as fast as we could to the other side. I was in such a hurry that I didn’t realize how close I was to the rails... and then it happened. I slipped in between the gap of the train and the platform with my right leg. I thought I was going to die...
My friend grabbed me below my arms and got me out just in time.

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

I think this is probably something you should answer on your own, since it's not multiple choice.

Explanation:

I'm not an expert, but my vague explanation is that world building is important because it might shape how the character acts. The author's work in that area makes the story more realistic and relatable, most likely. But I haven't been taught the lesson, so I'm probably not accurate.
