生活英语情景口语100主题 98. Disasters 自然灾害

Dialogue1
Julianna: Have you ever been in an earthquake?
Miles: Yes, I experienced one when I was in Tokyo once.
The tremors only lasted a few seconds though and then it was over.
J: Do you know where it measured on the Richter scale?
M: I don't remember, but it wasn't very serious.
Have you ever been in an earthquake?
J: No, but I was in quite a few tornados when I was younger.
M: Where are you from?
J: I'm from the plains of the Midwest.
It's a prime location for tornadoes.
M: Did your house ever get damaged from the winds?
J: Most of the time we were lucky,
but once a tree from our front yard was ripped out by its roots
and ended up in our living room.
M: Wow, that must have really been scary.
J: Actually, some of my fondest memories of my childhood
were of spending time with my funily in the basement
waiting for the tornados to pass.
M: Have you ever experienced a flood?
J: No, but my father's car was destroyed in a flood once. It actually happened the day after he bought the car.
M: That sure didn't last long!

Dialogue2
M: Do you remember when Hurricane Katrina passed through
the New Orleans?
J: Yes, that was just a few years ago.
M: What was your first impression of it when you saw all the
survivors wading through the waters trying to get to the stadium?
] : In all honesty, I thought that I was watching a news story
about people tram a third world countly.
M: I know. It was absolutely shocking that the people
were taken care of so poorly in America.
J : In fact, I thought there was less chaos in Asia when
the Tsunami hit.
M: You might be right.
The evacuation and medical teams were able to assist
the survivors almost immediately in Asia,
whereas in New Orleans,
some people went without food or water for days.
J: It was such a disgrace.
M: Unfortunately, there were quite a few victims in both situations.
J : Mother nature has amazing strength to destroy whatever
is in her path.
M: Before the Tsunami,
1'd never seen a twenty-meter wall of water sweep up the beach.
J : Before Hurricane Katrina,
1'd never seen so many Americans wading in water up to
their waists and sitting on rooftops for days while they
waited for help.
M: When it comes to natural disasters, no amount of money can save your life.
J: That may be true, but contributions can help people
start to re-build their lives.
M: If it weren't for international contributions.
Many survivors would simply starve to death.
