IV. Speaking Out

MODEL 1  It was a strong earthquake

Amy: Bill, it was a strong earthquake! The house was shaking, the window breaking! Terrible.

Bill: I know, it was terrible. I saw your face turn whit 1 as you ran and got  under the table.

Amy: I admit I panicked. But it wasn’t an occasion 2 for us to be careless. It’s better to be cautious 3. There might be aftershocks.

Bill:  Or an even bigger quake!

Amy: To play it safe, let’s turn off the gas and electricity.

Bill:  Right. Let’s get the emergency earthquake kit 4 already. It’s in the kitchen. It has food, flashlights, and a first-aid kit.

Amy: Let’s turn on the radio for news. I guess the quake measures at least 5 on the Richter Scale.


Bill: Who know what might happen tomorrow, next month or next year? After all, this city is said to be located in an earthquake zone

Amy: There hasn’t been much activity for dozens of years

Bill:  But a major quake may hit at any time.

Amy: I think we’d better move to an earthquake-proof house.

Bill:  Smart thinking!
