Listening text
Listen to three volcanologists talking ab
out their most frightening experience.
Part 1
Hi, I’m Jane Small. I’ve been a
volcanologist for five years, but I
can still remember my first visit inside
a crater. We were on the top of an activ
e volcano in Alaska.
The experienced members of our
group went immediately to the edge of
the crater. I was so anxious and
couldn’t move at first. After a while I
forced myself to join the others. Then I
got the courage to bend over the
boiling lava and collect a sample.
I became so excited that I forgot my
fear. After that, I was never so
frightened again but I’m always
careful.
Part 2
Hello, I am Frank Gore. I’ve been studyi
ng volcanoes for almost 10 years. My mo
st frightening experience was while flyin
g over a volcano in Hawaii. Suddenly the
clouds came down really low and our pil
ot couldn’t tell where we were. We flew
down below the clouds very close to the
volcano.
We flew between the fiery red lava bel
ow and the thick, dark clouds above. I
felt so nervous and had to force myself
not to panic. I had never felt so happy
as I landed safely.
Part 3Good morning! Hi, I am Sarah Tang. I’ve been examining volcanoes for over twenty years. I’ll never forget the amazing experience I had on a volcano in New Zealand. I was down the crater taking measurements. Suddenly the ground under my feet began to tremble. The trembling got stronger and stronger
and after a minute some steam blew out of the ground. That’s when I realized that the volcano was active. Believe me I was trembling as much as the ground, and was sweating too! At first I was afraid that the volcano would erupt while I was still inside it! After that I became excited by the experience and forgot to be frightened.
Speaking
Think of a powerful natural disaster (such as
an earthquake, food, typhoon, storm) that you
have experienced. You can use your imagination
if you have not experienced any of these things.
Tell your partner about your experience and how you felt.
Jane and I had been waking in the mountains when we noticed some dark clouds coming down the mountain. We decided to turn around and go home.As we walked the clouds got nearer and nearer and the day grew darker. Then all of a sudden it began to snow. It was soon snowing so hard we couldn’t see very far in front of us.
Sample
Holding each others’ hands so we couldn’t get separated, we continued down the mountain. But the snow got deeper and deeper. Walking became harder and harder. We began to get very tired and very frightened. After a while the path became buried under the snow and we didn’t know which way to go.
We were completely lost. We found some
shelter behind a big rock. Hugging each
other for warmth, we stayed like that
until the storm was over. Luckily it only
lasted an hour or two. Then the sun
came out again and we could see our
house in the distance. We were so
relieved that we both burst into tears.
