1. Listen to part one, then answer these questions in pairs.
Part1.
I will never forget the day when the earthquake took place. The time was a quarter past five in the afternoon. And I was driving along the road to fetch³ my daughter from her school. Our plan had been to go swimming together. I had finished work at about 4 o’clock and then gone to the post office. I was driving along a highroad on my way to the school. Over my road was another road for cars going the other way. Suddenly I saw the cars in front of me start to move from side to side. I slowed down. Then my car started to shake. I didn’t know what was happening. Perhaps something had gone wrong with my car. I drove⁴ even slower. Then the road above started to fall down. I stopped the car and at the same moment the road fell onto the cars in front of me.
2. Listen to part2 fill in blanks⁵ and write the words in spaces.
Part 2

      I found myself in the dark. I couldn’t move. The bottom⁶ part of my legs and my feet were hurting badly and I couldn’t move them. All around me was quiet. But below me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I remembered what had happened. It was clear to me now that I had been in an earthquake. For about two hours nobody came. Then I heard people climbing towards me. A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the broken⁷ road. I called out: “I’m here!” I heard the shout. Soon a stranger⁸ climbed beside the bridge near my car. It took them more than twelve hours to get me out of my car and bring me to a hospital.
