听力原文： Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is your re porter, Erin Brown, with the

latest news about the oil spill at Seaview Beach. When volunteers were asked to come and help clean up the oil, about two hundred people showed up. Storekeepers, students, business people, and many others gave up their time to help.

Farmers from nearby towns unloaded tons of straw while scientists showed the helpers how to soak up the oil.

Many ducks and other birds were caught in the oil. Scientists and volunteers tried to catch them and clean them off, but one report said that more than a hundred birds had died. The oil spill is the worst that has ever hit this coast. Edward Shoup, the head of the oil company, said that it was an accident. He explained that the ship that leaked was very old, and he added that as soon as new ships were ready, the company planed to get rid of its old ones. Mr. Shoup said that his company was working very hard on the oil-spill problem and would do its best to prevent any more oil spills.
