Hank was caught in the earthquake.
1 Listen to part 1.
Then answer these questions in pairs.
Part 1 I will never forget the day when the earthquake took place.
The time was 5:15 in the afternoon.
In our driving along the road to fetch my daughter from school.
A plan had been to go swimming together.
I had finished work at about 4:00,and then gone to the post office.
I was driving along a high road on my way to the school.
Over my road was another road for cars going the other way.
Suddenly,I saw the car in front of me started to move from side to said.
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 drove 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 part 2. Fill in the blanks and write the words in the spaces.
Part 2 I fell myself in the dark,I couldn't move.
The bottom part of my legs in my feet were hurting badly and I couldn't move them.
All aroud me was quiet but below me I could hear shouts in a lot of noise.
Then I remembered what had happened.
It's was clear to me now that I had been in a earthquake.
For about 2 hours nobody came.Then I heard people climbing towards me.
A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the broken road.
I called out: "I'm here". I heard the shout.
Soon a stranger climbing the side the bridge near my car.
It took more than 12 hours to get me out of my car and bring me to a hospital.
