听力原文： Two men on a touring holiday of Britain were injured by an explosion in their motor caravan in the center of Norwich yesterday.
Shoppers, traders and businessmen in Red Lion Street were startled by a loud bang, and seconds later the two men leapt from the vehicle, which had stopped outside Barclays Bank.
Several people rushed to give assistance and helped to put out the fire inside the vehicle, a fight American truck converted to provide living accommodation, before Norwich firemen arrived.
The men—American Mr. Gary Houser, aged 25, of Ohio, who was driving, and his passenger Mr. Charles Lynn, 23, of Vancouver—were taken to Norfolk and Norwich Hospital with minor bums.
They were allowed to leave after treatment.
"I heard this explosion. It was pretty loud, I thought it could have been a bomb," said Mr. Leslie Webster, deputy clerk of the markets, who was working in his office in Red Lion Street.
"I looked out of the window and saw this chap leap from the van and roll on the pavement.
"Then another chap came out of the van. He seemed to be in a worse state—parts of his trousers were hanging in shreds below his knee. "
"I came downstairs to get a fire extinguisher, but by the time I got outside someone from the bank was in the van with an extinguisher. "
Mr. Webster, who lives at 71 Trinity Street, Norwich, said both victims were shocked. One was taken into the markers office to await an ambulance.
"The second man insisted on going back into the van to see if everything was all right, and five minutes later he came out with a drawer that was blazing," he added.
The explosion was also heard inside the bank. Staff provided a fire extinguisher and telephoned for an ambulance.
Although a plastic window was blown out, damage inside the vehicle was mainly superficial.

In that school, striking the open hand with a ruler was the punishment. Daniel's hands happened to be very dirty. On the way to the teacher's desk he wiped the palm of one hand on his pantaloons.
"Give me your hand, sir," demanded the teacher. Out went the right hand.
The teacher looked at it a moment and said, "Daniel, if you will find another hand in this schoolroom as dirty as that, I will let you go. " Instantly from behind Daniel's back came the left hand. "Here it is, sir," he replied.
"That will do," said the teacher, laughing. "You may go."
