III 3
A natural
disaster is the consequence of a hazardous event,
occurring when human
activities are affected
by adverse natural phenomena such as flood,
drought, hailstorm,
heat wave, forest fire,
hurricane, typhoon, tornado, tsunami, landslide
and mudslide, or
volcanic eruption. The scale
of the resulting deaths or property damage depends
on the
human ability to resist the disasters.
Sometimes two seemingly different
disasters may be related to each other. For
example,
an undersea earthquake may result in
a tsunami. While there is a long dry spell in one
area,
there may be a great flood in another.
A drought is a long-lasting weather
pattern consisting of dry conditions with very
little or
no precipitation. During this
period, food and water supplies can run low, and
other
conditions, such as famine, can occur.
Droughts can last for several years and are
particularly damaging in areas in which the
residents depend on agriculture for survival.
A flood follows too much rain or water in a
location, and could be the result of many
different conditions. Floods can be caused by
heavy rainfall from a storm, including
thunderstorms, rapid melting of large amounts
of snow, or rivers which swell from too
much
precipitation upstream, causing widespread damage
to areas downstream. Another
possible cause of
floods is the bursting of man-made dams.
Unit 3 V 1
Disaster has struck
inHaiti. An earthquake of huge proportions erupted
in
theCaribbeanisland—one of the poorest
communities in the West. Buildings, which were
badly built, tumbled, burying thousands of
people in their own homes.
Haitiis a
poor country with few emergency services to help.
The islanders had to use their
bare hands to
search for their families. They waited for teams
from overseas countries
likeBritainand
theUnited Statesto bring equipment and manpower to
help rescue any
survivors they could find.
It's feared that more than 100,000
people have died. One school friend lies injured
on the
pavement. Another voices her sorrow.
The historic cathedral was badly damaged; and at
the presidential palace, the roof
collapsed.
The islanders here know about
ies in an area where there are frequent
tremors and also tropical storms. But last
week's earthquake registered seven on the
Richter scale—almost as high as the scale can
go. It was the biggest for 200 years. It
happened eight kilometers beneath the Earth's
crust—that's quite close to the surface, so
the tremors were really strong.
There were also lots of aftershocks—tremors
that happen after the main earthquake.
Those
aftershocks can also cause damage as buildings
collapse further and trap people
who might
have survived the first disaster.
The
British government has promised 20 million pounds
of aid to helpHaiti, and many
people have also
made donations.
Now the concern is to
prevent disease hitting areas without clean water
or enough medical
help.

Voice-over: Trapped indoors by raging
floodwaters for more than 24 hours, a 91-year-old
woman is rescued by firemen and carried to
safety. It's the worst flooding in Coggeshall
and the surrounding villages inEssexin more
than 50 years, and it's taken residents here by
surprise.
Elderly woman: I came from
home, because my place was flooded with burst
pipes, so I
came down to my son's to be safe
and got this. So, I just wonder what I've done
wrong to
get all this!
Voice-over:
Emergency crews have been evacuating people like
this woman and her baby
since the banks of the
River Blackwater burst this weekend. Parts of
easternEnglandwere
hit yesterday after a
month's worth of rain fell here in a day. People
told me there was no
time to save their
belongings.
Woman: By the time the high tide
had come up at quarter to four in the morning, the
water was up to the piano keys. It'd come
right up here, and I mean you can just see on
the, on the, on the furniture where the water
had come up to.
Voice-over: There was
flooding in Cambridgeshire too. Staff were mopping
up water at
this doctor's surgery in Borne,
trying to get the facilities back to normal.
Doctor: It's wrecked all the computer system.
It's managed unfortunately to get to a few
of
the old notes. It's also affected all our drugs
that are here, including the flu jabs we were
hoping to run our flu jabs sessions.
Voice-over: A few roads inEssexin
Cambridgeshire remain virtually impassable, but
water
levels are dropping. The question for
residents here now is what will happen if they get
even more heavy rain in the next few days.

Lillian: Mr. Baxter, you have
worked in the company for five years, and now you
manage
everything here smoothly, like a clock.
Could you tell us the secrets of your successful
career?
Baxter: Just as the golden rule
of real estate is
rule of work is workers
focus so hard on the job at hand that they
never develop useful relationships with people in
other parts of their organization. Worse, when
they do interact with colleagues in other
departments, they may not treat them with
respect.
Lillian: Could you give me more
details?
Baxter: Let's take Wendy as an
example. She switched jobs several months ago in
the
company. In her first position, as a
marketing manager, she frequently found herself in
conflict with the financial department over
her staff's expenses. Her argument for more
funds usually ended in vain. Then in her new
job as training administrator, she wanted to
launch an on-the-job training project. She
needed the financial department to support her
request for a budget. How did she convince
them this time? Although the financial
department's offices were located in another
city, Wendy decided to visited them in their
offices and try to establish closer
relationships. She believed she must first of all
understand their mission and their own
training needs. Then she found an ally in the
company's chief financial officer, who saw how
her group could help develop his staff. Thus
the two forged a long-term alliance, which led
to a training program so successful that it
has since been picked up by the company's
offices inGermanyandJapan. Winning allies
throughout your organization has an additional
benefit. These days, it's far too risky to
expect your work to speak for itself. Having
allies who speak well of you increases your
reputation with the top management.

Ayesha: In the newsroom you have about 16
reporters. The news reporters sit in one
part of the room, and you have features
on the other side of the room. I'm just going to
see Kev, he's my news editor and he's gonna do
a brief, basically brief me on a story that's
happening later on. When I walk into my
newsroom I don't know what to expect. You start
at eight but you don't know how long that's
gonna go on for. Hello.
Kevin: Hi Ayesha. So
we're really looking for a featurey sort of piece
for tomorrow's
paper.
Ayesha:
FrenchayHospital, which is one of our hospitals
inBristol. They're celebrating their
10 years
of this head injury unit, and we've been invited
up. We're gonna obviously cover
and take
pictures, and I'm gonna get to speak to people. So
he was really giving me
guidelines.
Kevin: You know when you're doing your
interviews, speak to people in some detail about,
you know, how they were injured in the first
place, but then the treatment they've gone
through. OK?
Ayesha: Yeah. Excellent!
Thank you!
Well, I've just started writing up
for my next, and just basically from the day. I've
got to get
something through, I think, by
about four. Sometimes I come back and I've got so
much
going on in my hands. So I'm just trying
to, sort of, just work it through. Deadlines are
very
stressful. But you have to meet them
because it's important; it's part of what
newspaper
journalism is all about. You get
used to it by getting the guidance, managing your
time, but
it's still scary. OK. It's all done.
OK. This is theBristolfinal. If I have a look at
page 14, there
we are, and that's my story.
Exciting!

You
don't come into journalism for the money. When you
start, you're sort of earning, I
think, about
150 to 180 pounds a week, which really isn't very
much to live on. But then as
you move up, you
get more, so you're looking to get14,000 ayear,
15,000,16,000 ayear.
And you know you're
working really long hours, and it's hard work.
OK thanks, bye.
Waiting for
phone calls and waiting for people to get back to
you is really frustrating. Like
today I had
other things to keep me going and I was doing
other things, but you know I've
got this thing
over my head because I know I've got to get this
quote and I've got to keep
chasing it and then
while you're working on other stories whether
they're bigger or smaller
ones you know. It's
very frustrating because you just want to get this
done and out of the
way, but it just doesn't
happen.
Journalism is just a, is a great
career to go into because (there's) so much you
can do. So
you can stay in newspapers, you can
go into radio, television—there's just so much out
there, and I guess at the stage where I
am—sort of just starting out, just really looking
at
what there is and what I will enjoy doing
more.
In 10 years I think I'd like to be
an editor of a section of a national paper either
here or
abroad, 20 years, launching my own
paper.
Journalism is just fantastic
because you don't know what's happening on a day-
to-day
basis. You meet so many different
people and it just puts you in such a privileged
position.
And I just love it. I just think
it's great.

Are you worried
because you have just broken a mirror? Some people
believe that breaking
a mirror is a terrible
thing to do. They say it will bring you seven
years of misfortune. The
reason behind this
belief stems from the old idea that a person's
soul is in their reflection,
so if you smash
your mirror, your soul will be damaged too,
dooming you to an early death,
and not giving
you entry to heaven. Is there any way to reverse
this bad luck? Yes, if you
very carefully pick
up all the broken pieces of the mirror and throw
them into a river or
stream, then the bad luck
will be
Of all numbers, 13 is the most
associated with bad luck. Some people claim that
the
number is bad luck because 13 people sat
down for the Last Supper before Jesus was
crucified, and with this in mind few hosts
will serve dinner with 13 at the table. And
according to an ancient Norwegian tale, 12
gods had gathered for a feast when a 13th,
Loki, entered. After the meal, Loki killed
Baldr, who was the most beloved of all the gods.
Friday the 13th of any month is
considered especially bad or unlucky, and Friday
the 13th
of March is the worst of them all.
The number seven also has some
superstition connected to it. It is said that God
created
the world in seven days, and any
association with the number is lucky. The seventh
son of
the seventh son is said to be the
luckiest of men, and when people talk about the
itchthey mean that every seven years a
person undergoes a complete
change in
personality.

Thanks,
perhaps, to falling stock markets and unrest in
theMiddle East, Britons have
become even more
superstitious than usual, according to a report
published today.
has been a significant
increase in superstition over the last month,
possibly as a result of
current economic and
political uncertainties,. Dick Armstrong. He
launched an
Internet survey of national
superstition, and found it to be surprisingly
high, even among
those with a scientific
background. Only one in ten of those surveyed
claimed not to be
superstitious at all. Three
out of four people inBritainfeel the need to touch
wood, and 65
percent cross their fingers.
It is interesting to note that lucky people
were much less superstitious and tended to take
constructive action to improve their lives.
Conversely, superstitious people tended to
regard themselves as among the less lucky,
worried about life, had a strong need for
control, and could not tolerate ambiguity.
The survey also revealed some unexpected
beliefs. For example, one respondent could not
stay in the bathroom once a toilet had been
flushed.
There was no evidence that
superstitions ever worked, even when people were
instructed
to carry lucky charms for a week.
They didn't feel any luckier or more satisfied
with their
lives at the end of that week than
when they started.
Armstrong attempted
to explain this phenomenon: students are preparing
for
exams with a lucky charm, they may trust
the charm, rather than doing some extra
revision.
