Volcanic eruption in Italy (задание по аудированию)

Nearly two thousand years ago, in 79 AD, a volcano called Vesuvius erupted on the west coast of Italy, south of Naples. It was one o’clock on 24th August. In the busy Roman port of Pompeii, people were walking about in the streets, families were preparing lunch and children were playing. Suddenly Vesuvius erupted. There was a loud explosion. There was dust and ash everywhere. People rushed into the streets screaming. Children ran to their parents crying. People tried to run away, taking their things with them. They tried to escape, but most of people and animals died.

Vesuvius has erupted many times. The last big eruption was in 1944. Will Vesuvius erupt again? Nobody knows. If it does, it might be a small eruption or a big one. Some people live close to Vesuvius because the soil around it is good for growing crops. But it is also very dangerous.



Questions:

What is Vesuvius?

Where is Vesuvius?

When did Vesuvius erupt?

What was there after eruption?

How many people and animal died?

When was the last big eruption of Vesuvius?

Why do some people live close to Vesuvius? Is it dangerous?

As I know you are captivated by one song WE ARE THE WOL RD WE ARE THE CHILDREN. It was written by Michel Jackson 25 years ago. But in February 2010 80 artists and performers walked into the room with their hearts and souls completely open to coming together to help the people of Haiti, where a terrible earthquake occurred.

We are the world we are the children (слова песни)





There comes a time 
When we heard a certain call 
When the world must come together as one. 
There are people dying 
And it's time to lend a hand to life – 
The greatest gift of all. 

We can't go on 
Pretending day by day 
That someone, somehow will soon make a change. 
We are all a part of 
God's great big family 
And the truth, you know love is all we need. 

We are the world 
We are the children 
We are the ones who make a brighter day 
So let's start giving. 
There's a choice we're making 
We're saving our own lives. 
It's true we'll make a better day 
Just you and me. 

Well, send them your heart 
So they'll know that someone cares 
And their lives will be stronger and free. 
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread 
And so we all must lend a helping hand. 

We are the world 
We are the children 
We are the ones who make a brighter day 
So lets start giving 
There's a choice we're making 
We're saving our own lives 
It's true we make a better day 
Just you and me
