Dialogue A. There's a documentary on the 2004 Indian Ocean disaster on TV.0:04
Do you want to watch it?0:12
Thousands of lives lost underwater.0:17
The quake caused a wave as high as 30 meters in some areas.0:21
Just sitting on the beach and seeing this giant wall of water coming fast towards you.0:27
I don't even want to think about it.0:31
Dialogue B. Are you still going on the ski trip next week?0:36
No, it's been cancelled.0:40
The whole village, ski resort included, is now buried under snow.0:45
I remember hearing something on the news a couple of days ago.0:50
There was a group of skiers going down the slope and were buried under the snow for hours before the rescue teams found them.0:54
How terrible for them!1:01
Skiing happily one minute and then literally being chased by a huge mass of snow the next.1:03
It is scary, isn't it?1:09
Luckily, their story had a happy ending.1:10
Ben, are you all right?1:18
Susan called me and told me what happened.1:20
Don't worry, we're all okay.1:24
A lot of water damage in the house though— carpets, furniture, some appliances.1:26
We need to replace them.1:31
Susan said the water was flowing in fast and it was up to your knees in no time.1:32
Yeah, that was scary.1:38
I mean, it had been raining for days non-stop, but we never expected anything like this to happen.1:39
The river overflowed, right?1:45
I suppose the authorities weren't prepared for something like this, which would explain why our little town turned into a giant swimming pool.1:48
Dialogue D. Finally, you're here!1:57
What took you so long?2:01
We had to take a long detour.2:03
Apparently, last night's tremor caused the side of the mountain to collapse.2:08
Luckily no, but there was damage to some houses and there was an enormous pile of dirt and rocks blocking the main road.2:16
I hope they clear it up soon.2:23
That's the main road into town.2:25
They've started to, but it's going to take a while from what they said.2:27
