Question
An earthquake hit a small seaside town a short while ago. Report what some of the people who experienced the event said.
Answer
- Lyn said that she would never forget the terrible sound just before the earthquake (had) hit. She had never heard anything like that in her life.
- Ben said he felt lucky that he was safe. The house next to his had collapsed and the rescue teams were still looking for injured people under the rubble.
- Sam said some people were afraid that a tsunami would follow, but he didn't think it would. There had been much stronger quakes than that in the town and they had never had a tsunami.
- Ian and Ann said that they were OK, but their young son had not got over the shock at that time. They were still trying to calm him down.
