Here's a text we wrote in class. It's in the present progressive!

Look! That car and bus are crashing! The car is burning. The firefighters are evacuating the bus! Now the firefighters are putting out the fire. The driver and the passangers are going to the hospital, and they are badly injured. In the bus two people out of forty are injured....
