[02:32.56]For about 2 hours nobody came.Then I heard people climbing towards me.

[03:50.01]READING THE RESCUE
[03:57.56]Flora³ heard somebody shouting.She looked around and saw Jeff running.
[04:05.60]Before she could move,She heard a loud noise which grew to a terrible roar⁴.
[04:14.96]She looked at Jeff,who was waving his arms. She looked around, behind her.
[04:23.31]There she saw a wall of water that was quickly advancing towards her.
[04:31.18]She was so surprised that she couldn't move She wanted to watch it.
[04:38.02]However,before she could think twice,the water was upon her.
[04:45.39]"Run!"Jeff shouted,seizing her arm.
[04:50.72]The next moment the first wave swept her down,swallowing the garden.
[04:58.48]Jeff dragged her towards the house.Everything went so fast, she couldn't think.
[05:07.62]Before they reached the house, a new great wave came,sweeping⁵ down trees,
[05:15.98]and sweeping them down too.
[05:20.24]They both went down under water.Then Jeff pulled her up.
[05:28.10]He was standing⁶,holding onto a tree that grew against the wall.
[05:35.07]Flora's head was above the water but she couldn't stand up.
[05:41.52]She struggled and struggled,but could not get on her feet.
[05:47.77]Only his hand was holding her hand.
[05:52.73]She fought for her life, and finally pulled herself up.
[05:59.21]Now,the water,which was cold as ice and flowed faster than a river,
[06:07.67]was above her knees.
[06:11.33]Jeff and Flora looked into each other's face with a look of fright⁷.

[06:18.38]"Get to the steps!"Jeff shouted.
[06:23.03]It was only just around the corner:four big steps!
[06:30.11]She looked at him,but she could not move.
[06:35.26]When the water seemed to go down a little,they ran.
[06:41.14]As they got to the steps,they heard another great roar,
[06:47.80]and the wall of the house shook.
[06:52.06]The water flowed around their legs again,but Jeff had opened the hall door.
[06:59.63]Flora quickly began climbing the stairs.
[07:04.88]Boom⁸!Another wave struck the house,and a strange cracking⁹ noise began.
[07:13.66]The water moved up like a sea.Flora ran up the stairs.
[07:21.03]There she stopped,listening to the strange sounds,while the whole house moved.
[07:29.88]Flora,whose beautiful hair and dress were all cold and wet,started crying.
[07:38.71]"The house is falling down!"shouted Jeff."Where is the chimney¹⁰?
[07:45.97]Which room?The chimney will stand." Jeff looked out of the window.
[07:54.23]Below,the water swept pass the house like a wild river.
[08:00.60]Tree after tree went down,cut down by the water,
[08:07.13]which must have been three metres deep
[08:11.86]The garden that was once so beautiful was completely¹¹ destroyed,
[08:18.63]swept away by the wild water.
[08:23.17]A terrible noise went through the house.
[08:27.92]A part of the house had gone down and the floor moved up and down under their feet.
[08:35.79]For some moments both were silent¹².
[08:40.33]"This will stand.This here will stand.See! That chimney!
[08:47.28]Like a tower. Yes!All right! All right!"
[08:53.45]INTEGRATING SKILLS
[08:59.92]Reading and writing
[09:03.27]During the first week of May I went on a holiday to Sichuan.
[09:09.15]First,I found some photos of interesting places
[09:14.32]which were not too far away from Chengdu.
[09:19.05]I decided¹³ to go and see the big Buddha¹⁴ in Leshan and Mount¹⁵ Emei.
[09:26.10]Next,I called a travel agent whose telephone number I found in a newspaper.
[09:33.18]He told me that I could go on a two-day trip to Leshan and Emei,
[09:40.34]which wasn't too expensive.
[09:44.10]My friends,Xiao Rong and Wei Bin²,said they would come with me.
[09:50.55]We took a few bottles of water,some apples and oranges,which we put into my bag.
[09:58.80]The next day we got up at five o'clock.
[10:03.48]First,we went to Leshan,
[10:07.32]where we climbed all the way up the mountain to see the Buddha.
[10:12.88]The Buddha is really very big:taller than the highest building in our village.
[10:20.54]Looking up at the large head and down at the large feet makes you feel so small.
[10:28.58]Wei Bin took photos of us standing in front of the Buddha.
[10:34.23]The next morning,we climbed Mount Emei.
[10:39.19]There are many old temples and the forest on the mountain is very beautiful.
[10:46.35]The wild monkeys are the most exciting things on Mount Emei.
[10:52.51]They are not at all afraid of people.In a second they will come to you and touch you.
[11:00.69]The monkeys really liked to touch my hair.
[11:05.23]Xiao Rong took a photo of a monkey that was sitting on my head.
[11:11.01]The monkeys look sweet but they can be very naughty.
[11:16.65]A small monkey suddenly put its hand in Xiao Rong's pocket.
[11:22.81]Wei Bin took out some peanuts¹⁶ and it was fun to see the monkey eat from his hand.
[11:30.18]Finally,towards evening we were on the way back to Chengdu.
[11:36.24]We were all very tired and slept on the bus,
[11:41.57]but our trip to Sichuan was really unforgettable¹⁷.
