W: Did you see today’s newspaper? That building over in Center Ville was just struck by lightning for the fourth time.
M: I didn’t read the article, but I’m not surprised. There is an old saying that “lightning never strikes twice in the same place”. But it seems to me that if the conditions for lightning to strike are right one time, they 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 car since lightning is supposed to be attracted to the tallest or sharpest object in the area.
M: But what if you were stuck outdoors?
W: (4)Also I was told 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, lightning is especially attracted to water.
M: (5) To tell you the truth, even when I’m at home I don’t take baths or showers during a thunderstorm. (6) I turn off my television and I don’t use any appliance or talk on the telephone.
W: Yes. We should just avoid using anything that works electrically.
M: Maybe you think I’m too nervous about these things.
W: I wouldn’t say that. According to the article, (7) lightning starts thousands of fires every year in the United States alone. Hundreds of people are injured or even killed by lightning, and millions of dollars worth of property gets damaged. I think you’re just being sensible.
4. What does the woman try to do if she’s caught outdoors during a thunderstorm?
