地道美语听力练习:风暴追逐者渴望捕捉极端天气状况

Shana:Hey, did you hear that? There's a severe storm coming. Let's hope for the best.

Aecio:Yeah, I hope it doesn't leave a lot of damage.

We haven't recovered from the aftermath of the last big storm.

Shana:No, when I said I was hoping for the best, I meant I'm hoping to catch it on film.

The weather forecaster says that their radar has detected a big cyclone forming over this area.

Aecio:Let me get this straight. You're hoping for a big storm?

Shana:Yeah, I'm a storm chaser.

I've captured lots of tropical storms on film, and even a small tornado, but never a hurricane or typhoon.

Aecio:You mean you actually chase after storms?

Shana:Yeah, it's fun. I hope one day to be there for a really big one and somehow get into the eye where it's calm.

Aecio:You understand that with big storms come strong winds and floods, resulting in the destruction of homes and general chaos.

Shana:I don't want anyone to get hurt.

I'm just looking for a thrill.

Aecio:Right, just a little harmless fun!
