I have class this morning, i was busy walking... im in the hurry.
few minutes on the way, i saw a person fall...
i dont have time... im sorry!
im in the hurry now... and my exam is waiting fo me...
Im sorry for that person. but if im not in the hurry, i may go to that person to ask her if she is ok. Anyway, from a far, i could see her stand again and try to clean her skirt. Hmm... thanks... she is alright.
If the same thing happen to you...
What will you do?
May you just be like me, pass by and just hurry up to your destination...
or come to that person and ask if he/she is alright?
or maybe you will laugh at that person how stupid he/she is...

It would depend on the circumstances and whether anyone else got to them first. I would probably wait a few seconds to see if they got up and then see if I could help. If a crowd was gathering, I'd walk past. I've fallen in the street and was grateful to a couple who helped me to a seat. A passing driver offered me a lift home but I said I would be ok. As it turned out, I'd fractured my wrist but didnt know that until a couple of days later.

Hello my friend manya_pearl Ji,
However I might be in hurry to either catch the train/Flt or for exams, I would spare proprtionate time to take care of that person and then step-out for my assignment. It is under humanity guide lines, one should always follow. We should always remember taht God may show us the same way and if no one comes out to help. In your case, She got up and you felt great relief. But imagine, if you replaced and there was none. May God bless You and have a great time.

I would stop to help them if I seen they were definitely hurt. I am always in a hurry anyway. I would go on and pass them by and look back to see fi they got up too though if I knew they were not seriously hurt.

if it had been right in front of me, I might've stopped to make sure she was all right. If she dropped things, help pick them up - called for help if she hadn't been. I was late to at least one class because I had to stop to help a person - and explained why and was told okay. Not an exam class, that might be different.

Hi! I would have went over and offered assistance, or if the person were already standing, i would at least have seen if they were okay. I guess it is just my nature to try to help others. I certainly would not have laughed at the person who had fallen, i think that is just rude.

In the similar circumstance, I would have reacted in the same manners as yours..t is right and could not be rude/inhuman.
