[00:53.21]A plan had been to go swimming together.

[00:57.36]I had finished work at about 4:00,and then gone to the post office.

[01:04.13]I was driving along a high road on my way to the school.

[01:09.59]Over my road was another road for cars going the other way.

[01:15.47]Suddenly,I saw the car in front of me started to move from side to said.

[01:21.82]I slowed down,then my car started to shake.

[01:26.26]I didn't know what was happening.

[01:29.81]Perhaps something had gone wrong with my car.

[01:33.94]I drove 1 even slower,then the road above started to fall down.

[01:40.78]I stopped the car

[01:43.84]and at the same moment the road fell onto the cars in front of me.

[01:57.55]Part 2 I fell myself in the dark,I couldn't move.

[02:04.21]The bottom part of my legs in my feet were hurting badly and I couldn't move them.

[02:10.46]All aroud me was quiet but below me I could hear shouts in  a lot of noise.

[02:17.61]Then I remembered what had happened.

[02:21.77]It's was clear to me now that I had been in a earthquake.

[02:26.91]For about 2 hours nobody came.Then I heard people climbing towards me.

[02:33.99]A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the broken road.

[02:40.24]I called out: "I'm here". I heard the shout.

[02:45.41]Soon a stranger climbing the side the bridge near my car.

[02:50.76]It took more than 12 hours to get me out of my car and bring to a hospital.

[03:41.00]READING  THE RESCUE

[03:48.55]Flora 3 heard somebody shouting.She looked around and saw Jeff running.

[03:57.61]Before she could move,She heard a loud noise which grew to a terrible roar 4.

[04:06.75]She looked at Jeff,who was waving his arms.

[04:12.42]She looked around,behind her.

[04:16.47]There she saw a wall of water that was quickly advancing towards her.

[04:23.84]She was so surprised that she couldn't move She wanted to watch it.

[04:31.99]However,before she could think twice,the water was upon her.

[04:39.35]"Run!"Jeff shouted,seizing her arm.

[04:44.71]The next moment the first wave swept her down,swallowing the garden.

[04:52.47]Jeff dragged her towards the house.

[04:57.33]Everything went so fast, she couldn't think.

[05:02.89]Before they reached the house, a new great wave came,

[05:09.26]sweeping 5 down trees, and sweeping them down too.

[05:15.51]They both went down under water.

[05:20.26]Then Jeff pulled her up.

[05:24.41]He was standing 6,holding onto a tree that grew against the wall.

[05:31.26]Flora's head was above the water but she couldn't stand up.

[05:37.82]She struggled and struggled,but could not get on her feet.

[05:43.98]Only his hand was holding her hand.

[05:48.45]She fought for her life, and finally pulled herself up.

[05:54.80]Now,the water,which was cold as ice and flowed faster than a river,

[06:02.55]was above her knees.

[06:06.21]Jeff and Flora looked into each other's face with a look of fright 7.

[06:12.77]"Get to the steps!" Jeff shouted.

[06:17.13]It was only just around the corner:four big steps!

[06:24.21]She looked at him,but she could not move

[06:29.36]When the water seemed to go down a little,they ran.

[06:35.23]As they got to the steps,

[06:38.99]and the wall of the house shook.

[06:43.15]The water flowed around their legs again,but Jeff had opened the hall door.

[06:50.80]Flora quickly began climbing the stairs.

[06:56.05]Boom!Another wave struck the house,and a strange cracking 8 noise began.

[07:04.72]The water moved up like a sea.Flora ran up the stairs.

[07:12.09]There she stopped,listening to the strange sounds,while the whole house moved.

[07:20.95]Flora,whose beautiful hair and dress were all cold and wet,started crying.

[07:28.81]"The house is falling down!"shouted Jeff.

[07:34.06]"Where is the chimney 9?Which room?The chimney will stand."

[07:40.93]Jeff looked out of the window.

[07:44.77]Below,the water swept pass the house like a wild river.

[07:51.12]Tree after tree went down,which must have been three metres deep.

[07:58.77]The garden that was once so beautiful was completely 10 destroyed,

[08:05.43]swept away by the wild water.

[08:10.00]A terrible noise went through the house.

[08:14.76]A part of the house ad gone down and the loor moved up and down under their feet.

[08:22.62]For some moments both ere silent 11.

[08:27.17]"This will stand.This ere will stand.See!

[08:32.81]That chimney! ike a tower.

[08:36.86]Yes!All right!All right!"

[08:41.53]INTEGRATING SKILLS    Reading and writing

[08:50.00]During the first week of May I went on a holiday to Sichuan.

[08:55.85]First,I found some photos of interesting places

[09:01.00]which were not too far away from Chengdu.

[09:05.67]I decided 12 to go and see the big Buddha 13 in Leshan and Mount 14 Emei.

[09:12.72]Next,I called a travel agent whose telephone number I found in a newspaper.

[09:19.86]He told me that I could go on a two-day trip to Leshan and Emei,

[09:26.94]which wasn't too expensive.

[09:30.70]My friends,Xiao Rong and Wei Bin 2,said they would come with me.

[09:37.07]We took a few bottles of water,some apples and oranges,which we put into my bag.

[09:45.40]The next day we got up at five o'clock.

[09:50.05]First,we went to Leshan,

[09:53.92]where we climbed all the way up the mountain to see the Buddha.

[09:59.48]The Buddha is really very big:taller than the highest building in our village.

[10:07.14]Looking up at the large head and down at the large feet makes you feel so small.

[10:15.18]Wei Bin took photos of us standing in front of the Buddha.

[10:19.94]The next morning,we climbed Mount Emei.

[10:24.90]There are many old temples and the forest on the mountain is very beautiful.

[10:32.06]The wild monkeys are the most exciting things on Mount Emei.

[10:38.22]They are not at all afraid of people.

[10:42.48]In a second they will come to you and touch you.

[10:47.52]The monkeys really liked to touch my hair.

[10:52.09]Xiao Rong took a photo of a monkey that was sitting on my head.

[10:57.84]The monkeys look sweet but they can be very naughty.

[11:03.51]A small monkey suddenly put its hand in Xiao Rong's pocket.

[11:09.67]Wei Bin took out some peanuts 15 and it was fun to see the monkey eat from his hand.

[11:17.04]Finally,towards evening we were on the way back to Chengdu.

[11:23.10]We were all very tired and slept on the bus,

[11:28.38]but our trip to Sichuan was really unforgettable 16.
