UNIT 3.1: WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Paul: Hello.
Marie: Paul, what happened to you?
Paul: I had an accident with the van.
Cheryl: Oh no. Are you okay?
Paul: I’m fine. I was wearing my seatbelt. No one was hurt, but I think we’re gonna need a new van.
Bob: What happened?
Paul: I was driving on 6th Street, and there were a lot of fish on the road.
Marie: A lot of what?
Paul: Fish.
Marie: Why was there fish on the road?
Paul: I don’t know. Anyway, I tried to turn, but I had a problem with the steering wheel.
Bob: The steering wheel broke?
Paul: No. It came off. So I drove over the fish. The fish made the road slippery so I tried to stop. I hit a parked car.
Bob: Oh no!
Paul: I’m not finished. The car behind me was tailgating so it hit me. A car in the opposite side of the road hit a stop sign. The stop sign fell and smashed my hood.
Cheryl: Oh no!
Paul: Then, worst of all, when I got out to look at the damage, a piano fell on the van.
Marie: What?! Where did it come from?
Paul: I don’t know. But the van does not look good. The bumpers are damaged. So is the hood. The doors won’t open. The windows won’t close. The engine is not working. The headlights are smashed. The horn won’t honk, and it smells like fish.
Bob: Are there any parts that are ok?
Paul: The steering wheel still looks good.
Bob: Great. All we need is a van to go with it.
