M: What volcano?
W: The one in Iceland, which erupted and produced an enormous cloud of ash. M: Really? I didn’t know. But it was the volcano instead of you that was in Iceland. How come the volcanic eruption there affected the transportation system in Spain and the UK?
W: Although Madrid is about 3,000 kilometres south of Iceland, the wind blew the ash from the volcano south from Iceland into Britain. Since all the airports were closed in case of the potential risks to aircraft, there were no flights in or out of the UK. M: So, how did you finally get home?
W: Well, I went from Madrid to Barcelona by train. Then, I made contact with one of our company??s branches there. After that, I tried to buy a train ticket from Barcelona to Paris but there were no tickets on the Eurostar train from Paris to London. So, I had no alternative but to stay in Barcelona.
M: I’ve been to Barcelona. It struck me as a lovely city indeed.
W: Fortunately, I got a ticket on a boat from Bilbao to Southampton with the help of some local colleagues. I got a coach from Barcelona to Bilbao and then boarded the boat.
M: Wow. And all because of this volcano. It seems strange that I’ve never heard of the eruption.
W: You really should read a newspaper or watch the TV news frequently, Ken. M: I know, but I??m so busy these days that I can??t afford to waste any of my leisure time on such meaningless pastimes. W: As far as I know, you??re unemployed.
M: Well, I’ve got a job interview next week. The Times newspaper has offered several vacancies for journalists.
W: I??m sorry, Ken, but I don??t think you??re going to get the job. Questions:
