Terry: Nothing can justify the deaths of innocent peo­ple blown up in a street or in an office block. I believe in the basic human right of feeling safe and living in peace.

Sue: I agree with you. Therefore, I'm not shocked when terrorists are called killers by those whose relatives died in a campaign of terror. My brother-in-law got injured in a bomb attack three years ago. Before it happened, I had thought this problem would never affect me. But it does so much now, really. And not only me if you see what I mean.

Terry: I wonder what we, here and now, can do to stop terrorism...

John: May I come in here? 'An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.'

Sue: Oh, come on. You don't believe in what you're say­ing. Peace by definition must include personal secu­rity for everybody. If we use the same weapon as ter­rorists, we might cause unwanted deaths of thou­sands of innocent people, let alone solve the prob­lem.

Terry: I couldn't agree more. What we need now is to stop the death cycle.

John: Easier said than done.


Sue: But we must face the fact that the terrorists are complaining about something, maybe we should look at the root of the problem, what someone sees as so bad that they feel like taking another life in order to change something is justified...

John: Sorry, but that's rubbish. I know lots of people who don't like something, but they don't kill people because of it.

Sue: Well, you're right in a way. But the more I think about it, the more pessimistic I become. I don't think one can eradicate terrorism whose history is as long as the history of human race.

Terry: We can, however, predict global problems and take some preventative measures to minimize their effects. There is one condition, though. This can never be achieved by a single country.

John: Oh, boy. Sounds like the beginning of a quick career in diplomacy.

Sue: Don't listen to John. He's had a bad day at uni­versity. Professor Adams asked him to prepare a speech about Shakespeare's sonnets. And Shakespeare isn't his cup of tea ...

Terry: Well, we are in the same boat. I will have to have my essay finished by Friday. Frankly speaking, I prefer essays to speeches.

Maps & Taps

It was a beautiful sunny day. Becky was somehow reluctant to go to the amusement park but we all man­aged to persuade her to go there with us. Apparently, her associations with such places were simply negative.

The weather was fantastic so we all thought good fun was guaranteed. On a Saturday morning, in high spirits and with our packed lunches, we dashed for the main entrance of the park. We saw there all sorts of peo-

ple. I must say I was a bit shocked when I saw an eld­erly lady queuing, paying the admission fee. Of course, there were hundreds of teenagers and even toddlers with their parents. Literally, it was a park for everybody with a suitable ride to cater for even the most refined tastes. For a start we decided to choose something sim­ple and innocent-looking. Mark suggested trying the boats. He was the unquestionable leader of our group so we accepted his proposal without any complaint. The ride was called 'River Boats', too trivial a name if you want to hear my opinion. However, it turned out to be the hit of our visit.

I now need to give you a short description of the ride. Imagine a river winding up in the hilly area. The boats sail up one of those hills until they reach a point where the real adventure begins and ends a few seconds later. There is a gigantic waterfall, and, as you must have deduced by now, all the boats go down the water­fall at a neck breaking speed, making the riders laugh or scream in horror.

Only three people could be in one boat so we had to split into three groups. Becky, Ralph and John were in the first boat. Sue, David and Claire in the second one. The third one was left for Daniel and me. In next to no time we were all sitting in our boats. Needless to say, the distance between the two boats was some 10 metres or even more.

Everything would have been fine if not for Daniel who suddenly wanted to check if Becky had our maps with her. He stood up and shouted 'Maps!'. We could all see Becky and the rest looking for something inside the boat. But a few seconds later, Becky stood up to send a signal that no maps were found. She looked a bit horri­fied, though. Daniel got a bit angry because he was sure he had given Becky all the maps. So he shouted again 'Maps!'. Becky's crew was looking intensely for some­thing inside the boat. And again, Becky stood up to use some body language to signal they were unable to locate Daniel's maps. We could all say that she didn't look good. She was petrified with fear.

Then I remember that the first boat disappeared. Twenty seconds later the second boat vanished and finally ours went down the waterfall. It was great! As soon as Daniel and I got out of the boat, we heard Becky's voice. She kept saying the same thing over and over again: 'Daniel, I'll kill you. Because of your stupid maps, I'm a bundle of nerves.'

We found out later that Becky's boat had had more water inside than ours. When Daniel had shouted 'Maps!', she had thought he was trying to instruct them how to turn off some taps in the first boat to stop water from coming into the boat. She thought that if they weren't able to switch off the taps, the boat would sink because of too much water.

Apparently, there were no taps in any of the three boats. And Becky gave the maps back to Daniel on the same day saying she needed to get rid of the objects that reminded her of the traumatic experience. She went to bed earlier than usual that day.
