--- Lesson 21 Mad or not? |
| [00:07.080] |
--- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:13.560] |
--- Why do people think the writer is mad? |
| [00:19.680] |
Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad. |
| [00:25.040] |
I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day. |
| [00:33.240] |
The airport was built years ago, but for some reason it could not be used then. |
| [00:42.960] |
Last year, however, it came into use. |
| [00:48.040] |
Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise. |
| [00:54.560] |
I am one of the few people left. |
| [00:58.480] |
Sometimes I think this house will be knocked down by a passing plane. |
| [01:05.440] |
I have been offered a large sum of money to go away, but I am determined to stay here. |
| [01:14.440] |
Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right. |
