【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
I've been in earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, seen tidal waves, volcanoes erupting, floods, just about everything, all possible natural disasters, but I think the most frightening experience was being involved in a bus crash.
This was in Africa, in a bus which was going through the countryside on a dirty road. It was a bus crowded with people, crowded with luggage and the bus had stopped at a small town, at a bar, where the driver had a few beers and then loaded a crate of beer on the bus on the roof-rack. When we eventually set off from that place the driver got up speed and suddenly ran off the road. I remember the bus turning over two or three times and eventually the bus came to rest upside down. All I could feel was a tremendous bang on the head which later turned out to be the crate of beer.
There was a dead silence, absolute shocked silence and it was a long way from any town or any village and the only thing you could hear was the engine. The driver ran away into the bush, he was frightened, so everybody crawled out through the back window and left their suitcases and possessions and everyone was terrified the bus would explode and eventually someone had the sense to turn the engine off and we all crawled back in again to get our possessions, and no one seemed particularly injured, everyone was just shocked and stunned and it was only after about ten or fifteen minutes of sitting on the ground that people began to collapse and become unconscious and suddenly appear very seriously injured. Eventually a lorry came and took us to hospital and it was only in hospital I realized just how serious it was. A girl sitting next to me on the bus was also sitting next to me in the hospital and the nurse was asking her age, her religion, etc., and suddenly the girl just lay down and died, and three other people who'd been sitting near me also died.
