W: Julia and I are driving downtown this afternoon. Want to come, Tom?
M: Thanks, Cathy. But I've got to study. I'm behind in chemistry.
W: Well, in that case, is there anything we can get for you?
M: Gee, I left my watch to be fixed at Gilson's the other day. It should be ready by now.
W: If you've got the claim check, I'd be happy to pick it up.
M: Well, Cathy, now that I think about it, I've got something else to do downtown. I have to buy something at the supermarket. Maybe I'd better go with you.
W: We'll be leaving from the parking lot. I'm behind with my work, so we'll only be there a couple of hours.
M: Oh, if it's only a couple of hours, I can certainly go.
W: Great! See you in a few minutes.

W: Back to the news. Last Friday, a storm hit two villages destroying fifteen houses. Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows. One person was killed, and nine were badly injured and taken to hospital. A number of other people received small injuries. Altogether over two hundred were left homeless as a result of the storm.
A farmer said the storm began early in the morning and lasted over an hour. He was in the kitchen with his wife and his children when they heard a loud noise. A few minutes later their house fell down on top of them. They managed to climb out but then he saw that one of his children was missing. He went back inside and found him safe but very frightened.
A woman said that her husband had just left for work when she noticed that her house was shaking. She rushed outside immediately with her children. There was no time for her to take anything. A few minutes later, the roof came down.
Soldiers went to the area to help the people in trouble.

W: You're leaving school soon, aren't you?
M: Yes, my A-levels start next week, but I'm not too bothered about the results, because when I leave school I'm going to concentrate on my music career. I'm the leading singer in a band and I don't need any qualifications to be a pop star. I can see my future very clearly. I'm going to be incredible.
W: So you've already got a contract then?
M: Not yet. But the minute I've taken my last exam, I'm going to find a really good manager.
W: So, do you intend to continue living at home?
M: No way. I'm moving to London just as soon as I've left school. London's where it all happens in the music industry.
W: Do you think you'll be able to live off(靠……生活) your music right from the start?
M: Well, I believe at first we might have to get jobs for a few months and it's going to be hard, but I bet, by this time next year, we'll have a record on the charts (唱片的每周排行榜).
