Lesson 118: A natural disaster
Oh, no. Take a look at this!
Why? What’s going on?
There’s this enormous flood in Slovakia – look at these people on the roof! The water is up to the second floor. And look at these cars. I sure hope there was no one in them.
That sounds horrendous. Any word on casualties?
It says, “No reports of deaths or injuries so far….” But it’s in the middle of a city, for goodness sake. The death toll could end up being huge.
And can you imagine the property damage?
Well, they estimate almost 50% of the houses in town are under water already.
What a disaster!

You bet I do. How could anyone forget. And that flooded almost half the city too.
