Exercise 6A, page 61.0:00
Ogilvy ran into the town.0:07
On the way he met a man who drove a horse and cart.0:10
Ogilvy was so excited and he tried to tell the man about the cylinder.0:14
But he looked so wild and crazy that the man just drove away.0:19
Then he saw the innkeeper.0:24
He started to tell him the story of the strange object that had fallen from the sky.0:26
But the innkeeper thought Ogilvy was a madman and didn't listen to him at all.0:32
Ogilvy calmed down a little bit.0:37
Suddenly he saw Henderson, a London journalist.0:40
He was working in his garden.0:44
Ogilvy shouted out to him.0:47
He asked if he had seen the bright object in the sky the night before.0:49
Henderson said that he had.0:54
Ogilvy told him that the same object was now on the Horsell common.0:57
Henderson was so surpr he thought that it was a fallen meteorite.1:01
But Ogilvy told him that it was something much more than a meteorite.1:06
He said that the object was a hollow cylinder and there was something inside it.1:11
Henderson listened and Ogilvy told him everything he had seen.1:16
It took Henderson a while to understand what Ogilvie was saying.1:21
After he heard the story, Henderson dropped his spade and grabbed his jacket.1:25
The two men hurried back to the common.1:31
The cylinder was in the same place and they could see a circle of bright metal.1:33
There was a strange sizzling sound, as if air was going into or coming out of the cylinder.1:38
The men listened carefully and tapped the metal cylinder with a stick.1:45
There was no response.1:50
Maybe the men inside were stunned or dead.1:53
They thought there was nothing they could do.1:55
They shouted to the men in the cylinder that they were going to get help.2:02
They promised to come back.2:07
Both men were covered in sand and looked very untidy as they ran through the streets.2:10
It was early in the morning and people were just getting up.2:16
Henderson went straight to the railway station to send a telegram to London about the cylinder.2:21
By 8 o', clock, lots of people had heard that there were aliens on the common.2:27
They gathered to see the cylinder.2:31
