What are the man and woman discussing?
W: Did you see today’s newspaper? That building over in Centerville was just struck by lightning-for the fourth time!
M: I didn’t read the article, but I’m not surprised. The old proverb says lightning never strikes twice in the same place, but it seems to me that if the conditions are fight for lightning to strike one time, then it might be just as good another time.
W: Well, I don’t take any chances. If I’m caught in a thunderstorm, I look for shelter in a building or a closed cafe, since lightning is supposed to be attracted to the tallest or sharpest object in the area. Also I’ve been role that if you’re stuck outdoors, the best thing you can do is keep yourself close to the ground, and avoid bodies of water. Apparently lightening is particularly attracted to water.
M: To tell you the troth, even when I am at home I won’t take baths or showers during a thunderstorm. I unplug my television, and I don’t use any appliances or talk on the telephone. I just avoid using anything that works electrically. Maybe I’m too nervous about these things
W: I wouldn’t say that. According to the article, lightning starts thousands of fires every year in the U.S. alone. Hundreds of people are injured and even killed by lightening, and millions of dollars in damage are caused. I think you’re just being sensible.
