LISTENING:
1/ Transcript 1:
MC : Michael, could you tell us what happened?
Michael : Well, it was just a normal evening. My wife and I were cooking dinner, and my kids were watching their
favourite cartoon. Suddenly we heard thunders and within five minutes the rain poured down. The tornado was
sweeping through our town.
MC: Wasn’t there any weather forecast about this?
Michael: Not at all. We got no warning about it. Then the lights went out, everything was in the dark. The whole
house was shaking because of the heavy rain and strong winds. We thought that it might collapse, but it was
dangerous to go outside, so we had no choice but to take cover under the bed, praying for the best.
MC: How did you feel at that time?
Michael : I was terrified. All our windows were smashed. Dust, rocks and tree branches were blown into our
house. We couldn’t even open our eyes. For a moment I thought we were going to die. Luckily for us, the bed was
made of very hard wood, so we were safe.
2/ Transcript 2:
If you live in an earthquake zone, you should take some time to look around your house. Place heavy books on the
bottom shelf of your bookshelves. Block the rollers on your fridge and washing machine to prevent them from
moving. Put hanging potted plants in plastic containers. Check the mirrors in your bathroom and bedroom. Make
sure they can't move. Don't put your bed next to a window. Planning where you are going to be during an
earthquake is very important. The first thing to remember is to stay inside. Then you should sit under a strong table
or doorway, or stand in the corner of a room.
