Strong earthquake hits China

A powerful earthquake measuring 7.8 has hit Chinas southern province of Sichuan, shaking buildings as far away as Beijing, Shanghai and Bangkok.

It was not immediately clear if there were any casualties or damage from the tremor which the the US Geological Survey (UGS) earlier put at 7.8.

The epicentre of the quake was 93 kilometres north of Chengdu.

Wenchuan, which took full force of the quake, has a population of 111,000 people.

It is in an ethnic Tibetan area in Aba county which recently saw violent clashes between Tibetans and Chinese authorities.

According to some reports there was a second earthquake measuring 3.9 which hit the Beijing district of Tongzhou at roughly the same time.

Telephone lines in the affected area are jammed and there are still no reports of casualties.

Reports from Thailand say high buildings in Bangkok continued to shake several minutes after the tremors began.

"We felt continuous shaking for about two or three minutes. All the people in our office are rushing downstairs. Were still feeling slight tremblings," said an office worker in Chengdu.

Chinas tallest building, the Jinmao Tower, and other highrise buildings in Shanghais financial district were evacuated after tremors were first felt.

"People were shouting get out, get out, so we all ran out of our dorm," said a student surnamed Zhang at a university in nearby Chongqing.

A spokesman for the China Earthquake Administration said it was still checking the epicentre and scale of the tremor.

July 8th Sunny

All the students talked about their own dreamed jobs in the future in this class-meeting. We all believe that our dreams will come true sooner or later.

I also talked about my own dream: to be a doctor. And the reasons are as follows. When I was in Grade Seven, I was sick and often went to see doctors. The doctors were very friendly and they often cheered me up. With the help of them, I was getting better. Now I’m very healthy. Since then I have hoped to become a doctor. How will I make my dream come true? I will study hard to get good grades. I’ll read more books about medicine. I believe I’ll be a good doctor in the future.

Anyhow, this class-meeting was indeed meaningful, meanwhile, I know that the dream I have calls for my efforts. Helpfully, I can make it.

but in gladness. Just have a little faith. Just try to remember that everything

will be alright. We will find what we are looking for in the future.

早晨，我和妈妈揉了揉惺松的眼睛，一骨碌地坐起来，打开电视看新闻，电视上面正在直播四川地震情况，我和妈妈就全神贯注地看了起来，新闻上说死亡人数已经超过170多人，6986人受伤。解放军叔叔们昨晚上一晚上都没合眼，一直在搜救，希望在72小时的黄金时间内搜救出更多的人民。

其中芦山县有一位11岁女孩叫黄思怡，她父母在县城打工，黄思怡一直跟爷爷奶奶生活在一起，地震发生时，黄思怡从楼上往下跑，途中被围墙砸到。在邻居的帮助下，思怡被救出来。伤势很严重，思怡已经接受了右腿截肢手术，但依然昏迷不醒，只能靠呼吸机辅助呼吸。医生说她的肝、肾功能受到严重损害。思怡正在华西医院的重症监护室进行抢救。看到她妈妈接受记者采访的时候声泪俱下，伤心欲绝，我心里很难受，鼻子酸酸的，我为她祈祷，希望她快点醒过来，快点好起来。思怡，加油!

My university life has been one of the most colorful parts of my life. I will never forget the day when I first stepped into the university. At that very moment, I was impressed immediately by the beautiful campus, the enthusiastic students and the good learning atmosphere. I fell in love with the campus at once.

First, studying on the campus gives me lots of pleasure. After some very arduous military training, I became absolutely absorbed in my studies. Different from high school courses, the courses in university are specific and interesting. I can get information not only from teachers in class, but also outside of class, such as in the library, on the Internet and so on. These courses arouse my insatiable desire for knowledge and make me learn and digest as much as I can. To be frank, I had some difficulties in keeping up with my teachers at first, but later with the help of my teachers, I made remarkable progress. Learning is a long process, and I will continue to be a learner throughout my life.

Besides, social activities on campus provide me with more chances to learn. I will never forget the days I served as a volunteer at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. After some training in Chinese history and language skills both in Japanese and English, I endeavored to serve our distinguished guests from all over the world enthusiastically. I was a volunteer as well as a disseminator of our splendid culture. There was no doubt that I came across many difficulties at first, such as humid weather, language barriers and so on. Thanks to other volunteers’ help, I overcame those difficulties. When it was time to depart, I couldn’t help bursting into tears, because I had developed a deep friendship with other volunteers. This precious experience made me aware of the huge responsibility on my shoulders. Just as the old saying goes, “we make a living by what we get, and we make a life by what we give.”

In my opinion, university life has been the most splendid time in my life so far, and many students cherish this period of time and hope that in the future they may become outstanding members of society. But there are also some ignorant students who get together every day only to eat, drink, play computer games or date. They completely forget their mission as a college student and their responsibility to their family to do their best in school.

I want to say that although there are lots of difficulties or setbacks during our college days, we should set our goals and achieve them. I do hope we can try our best to become productive citizens of the country and make great contributions to the nation.

Mobilize是一个平时不太常用的单词，但是此次四川地震灾难发生之后，全世界对于中国政府mobilize抗震救灾力量的效率给予了好评，我们也可以对mobilize有一个全新的认识与了解。在表示“废墟”的时候，英语中通常使用debris和rubble这两个单词。与地震相关的其他词语还包括地震的“震级”，“震中”，“地震强度”、“余震”等等，这些用英语怎么说?媒体是怎样报道的，让我们一起来学学!

2008年5月12日发生在四川西北部的特大地震及其惨重后果牵动了全体国人的心，媒体也迅速介入，在灾难发生后的第一时间，中央电视台启动24小时滚动直播。与此同时，西方媒体也纷纷迅速报道，而且大多惊叹中国政府的救灾效率，尤其是中国政府能在最短的时间内动员最大的人力投入救灾十分赞叹。

通过这些外媒的报道，我们也得到了一个通过新闻学习英语的良好机会，如果我们在积极关注地震灾难以及随后的可歌可泣抗争救灾行动的时候也注意通过英语媒体了解情况，我们就可以掌握一些地道的英语表达，丰富我们的语言应用能力。如美联社5月16日的一篇报道中有以下一段文字：China has mobilized 130,000 army and paramilitary troops to the disaster area, but the quake buckled roads and triggered mountain landslides, meaning that relief supplies and rescuers have struggled to reach the worst-hit areas.

Mobilize是一个平时不太常用的单词，但是此次四川地震灾难发生之后，全世界对于中国政府mobilize抗震救灾力量的效率给予了好评，我们也可以对mobilize有一个全新的认识与了解。中国政府此次动员的抗震救灾力量主要来自军警，上述文字中的paramilitary troops就是“准军事部队”的意思，也就是警察，包括武警。Paramilitary是西方国家通常用来表达警察和武警部队的英语词汇，在我国的汉英词典中，“武警”的译文通常是armed police，但这个表达远不如paramilitary在英语国家中用的普遍。中国政府此次出动的抗震救灾力量中除了军人之外还有大量武警、森林警察、消防警察和普通公安干警，这些警力在英语中可以统称为paramilitary troops。Buckled roads就是“阻挡道路”的意思，其中buckle这个单词在这里使用得十分生动形象，因为“阻挡道路”我们一般是表达为block road的，而buckle的意思是“使扭曲”，“使弯曲”，“使变形”，对于在汶川地震中毁坏的公路来说，buckle这个词显然是再形象不过的了，因为那里遭到毁坏的公路确实扭曲断裂变形了，这一点我们从电视上都看到了。triggered mountain landslides就是“引发山体滑坡”的意思，其中的mountain landslide就是“山体滑坡”的意思，slide属于美国英语用法，指的是(土、石、雪等的)崩落，崩塌。常见派生用法有landslide(山崩，滑坡，塌方)，mud slide就是“泥石流”。Trigger这个词用在这里也十分形象，因为它通常表示由于外来力量的作用而造成的某种后果。在美联社的另外一篇报道中，“引发”的英语对应词汇用的spark，其释义与trigger相似，如A strong aftershock sparked landslides near the epicenter of this weeks powerful earthquake Friday, burying vehicles and again cutting off ravaged areas of central China. 我们抗震救灾中所急需的各类“救灾物资”就是relief supplies。说到与“救”相关的词汇，我们的广大英语学习者往往会条件反射想到save这个英语单词，其实不然，在各种灾难救援行动中，rescue是一个更常用的词汇，下文的rescuers就是“救援人员”的意思，而“救援行动”本身在英语中就是relief。“救援人员”还可以表达为relief workers，如美联社的这篇报道中就提到了以下一句话：Relief workers said food, water and tents were urgently needed. 上文中的worst-hit areas指的就是此次地震灾害中受灾最严重的地区，比如说汶川，北川和青川等地。

此次汶川地震造成的严重后果之一就是大量人员、尤其是正在学校上学的孩子们被掩埋在建筑物坍塌之后的废墟之中，在表示“废墟”的时候，英语中通常使用debris和rubble这两个单词。如美联社的这篇报道提到：Rescuers saved a child from the debris of a school in the town of Beichuan 80 hours after the quake struck. They said they could hear weak calls for help from amid the rubble, Xinhua said.其中，debris所涵盖的范围比rubble更广泛，它可以泛指一切物体解体之后形成的碎片或者残骸，比如说飞机发生空难之后的残骸the debris of a plane，又如，The beach was littered with debris(海滩上到处都是残骸)。必须指出的是，debris是不可数名词。相对而言，rubble用在此次地震灾难的报道中就更加具有针对性，因为它表示(被毁的建筑物或墙壁)的碎石，碎砖，瓦砾，而汶川地震之后大量人员就是被掩埋在rubble之中的。Rubble同样也是不可数名词。此外，表示“倒塌的建筑物”时候，英语还经常使用ruin，它是可数名词，因此更经常使用ruins这个复数形式，其搭配介词是in。如美联社的这一报道说：Two girls held handsin the ruins of their school and swore to each other they would not give up hope, Xinhua said.又如，Elsewhere, rescuers were still finding survivors after being buried in rubble for 96 hours… 在词语搭配方面，除了ruin之外，rubble和debris的搭配介词也都是in，如buried in the rubble/debris就是“被掩埋在废墟/瓦砾之中”的意思。如果表达“被困”在废墟之中，那么，这时候的相应单词就是trap，其完整的词组表达就是英语被动式be trapped in the debris。如美联社的报道说： A Chinese state news agency says rescuers have pulled a student to safety afterbeing trapped for 80 hours in the debris of a school following this weeks massive earthquake.地震中的遇险人员在遭到掩埋之后必定会呼救，这时候的对应英语表达除了上文提到的call for help之外还可以是yell for help，如美联社报道说：Xinhua News Agency said Friday that rescuers could still hear weak yells for help from the collapsed building in Beichuan in the northern part of Sichuan and hope to rescue more students.

汶川大地震造成的灾难性后果之一就是许多学校的教学楼坍塌了，此次我国媒体报道的时候使用的词语叫做“垮塌”，在英语中，无论是坍塌还是垮塌，其实都是一个词，即collapse，既是名词，也是动词，还是美联社的同一篇报道中提到：In the town of Dujiangyan, a school collapse buried 900 students. In Wufu, nearly every building in the village withstood the quake but for a primary school, whose collapse killed some 300 students. 又如，美联社新闻说，Experts said hope was quickly fading for anyone still caught in the wreckage of homes, schools, offices and factories that collapsed in the magnitude-7.9 quake, the most powerful in three decades in quake-prone China.房屋collapse的后果就是被夷为平地，而英语中表示“夷为平地”的对应说法是flatten，如美联社报道说The magnitude 7.9 quake flattened houses, schools and offices the southwestern province of Sichuan. In Hanwang, the towns mostly older buildings were flattened or severely damaged by the quake.

此次地震造成大量人员不幸遇难，让我们无不为之揪心，但这又是无法回避的事实。为此，党中央和国务院紧急强调，在抗震救灾进入第二阶段之后，随着死亡人数的增加和气温的升高，震区防疫就成为工作重点。为严防灾区传染病流行，卫生部防疫队5月15日进驻灾区。这里提到的“防疫”就是epidemic prevention，其中的epidemic是“流行病”，“传染病”的意思，在这里指的是“疫情”。如美联社的这一报道说：There were concerns about epidemics if the dead were not soon buried or cremated. 这个句子中的cremate是人死亡之后进行火化处理的意思。为了更好地应对震区可能出现的疫情，卫生部下发了通知，美联社的报道说：The Ministry of Health issued a notice ordering bodies to be cleaned where they were found and buried as soon as possible, far from water sources and downwind from populated areas.

此次惨烈的大地震造成了数以万计的居民遇难，而且死亡人数还在不断攀升。天灾人祸中的死亡总数，英语中叫做death toll，如美联社报道说The emergency headquarters of the State Council, Chinas Cabinet, said the confirmed death toll had reached 19,509 — up more than 4,500 from the day before. The council said deaths could rise to 50,000, state media reported.上文的意思是，国家抗震救灾总指挥部宣布，截止5月15日，确认的死亡人数已达到19509人，但最终遇难人数可能上升到5万人。

地震造成的直接后果是无数人死伤和无数房屋建筑被毁，但是，地震还可能造成伴随而来的“次生灾害”，对此党中央和国务院十分重视，及时做出应对部署，以避免次生灾害对人民生命财产的再次损害。美联社报道说：Even though aftershocks had mostly abated, the risk of secondary damage remained. Chinas Ministry of Land and Resources warned heavy rains — forecast for the next few days — would likely set off new landslides in the mountainous disaster zone, where many workers were busy extracting victims and recovering bodies.上文中的secondary damage就是“次生灾害”，而aftershocks had mostly abated指的是余震已经减弱。 5月20日下午，中共中央政治局常委、国务院总理、国务院抗震救灾总指挥部总指挥温家宝主持召开总指挥部第11次会议时就强调切实做好受灾群众安置工作，防范次生灾害。

与地震相关的其他词语还包括地震的“震级”，“震中”，“地震强度”、“余震”等等，如美联社报道说，A major earthquake measuring 7.8 Richter Scale jolted Wenchuan County of Southwest Chinas Sichuan province at 2:28 p.m. on Monday.其中的measuring 7.8 Richter Scale就是“里氏7?8级”的意思，其中的measure还可以表达为register。A major earthquake of 7.8-magnitude shook Chinas Sichuan province on Monday, the US Geological Survey said. 其中的magnitude就是表示地震的强度。Roads to the epicenter were closed due to damage caused by the 7.8-magnitude quake, and the situation was making rescue efforts difficult even 48 hours after the deadly quake.这里的epicenter指的就是地震的“震中”，此次川西北大地震的震中就位于汶川县的映秀镇。又如，A strong aftershock sparked landslides near the epicenter of this weeks powerful earthquake Friday, burying vehicles and again cutting off ravaged areas of central China. Aftershock就是“余震”，上文已提及。而“地震”除了表达为earthquake及其缩略形式quake之外还可以说temblor，这是美国英语中用来表示“地震”的单词。此外，由于此次地震造成的伤亡后果十分惨重，因此在修饰性词汇方面，英语中用了多个不同单词，如massive/powerful/devastating/deadly/killer earthquake。

当然，与地震相关的词语表达还有很多，不可能在这里一一列举。在关注地震奉献爱心的时候，我们也可以通过阅读英语新闻报道来掌握一些英语词汇，丰富我们的语言表达能力，新闻媒介是当今日新月异的政治、经济、科技、文化和社会生活等各个层面活动的最佳表现渠道，语言便是其表现载体，因为语言是伴随着特定的政治、社会等环境而产生的，具有明显的社会性。

由于环境恶化和人类的大量捕杀，鲸目成员特别是一些大型成员由于经济价值高而受到广泛捕猎，许多鲸类已濒临灭绝。让我们保护鲸鱼，让它们不再受到伤害。

As students, our countrys purpose is to serve the motherland and the future, our most important task is to learn, facing such a catastrophe, we should turn grief into strength, and more efforts to study the future development of the technology, the economic prosperity of the motherland.

Let us surmount, united as one, prayed for the people of disaster areas, I believe the Chinese government and the Communist Party, the motherland and people join hands to tide over this difficult period.

In the past hundred years, there have heen frequent natural disasters, such

as floods, droughts, mud-rock flows, seismic sea waves, earthquakes, windstorms

and the stretching of new deserts. The disasters have killed millions upon

millions of people, destroyed countless homes, and wiped out numerous pieces of

fertile land.

Now more and more people become aware that those disasters have much to do

with what we have done to the earth. We have cut down too many trees in the

forests,we have badly polluted the environment, we have shocked our own

home-planet time and against with tremendously powerful explosions of nuclear

bombs. As a result, climates have become abnormal, rainwater rushes down

hillsides angrily, and the underground energy goes up to revenge itself on

us.

The earth is our only home-planet. It is urgent for us to stop damaging it,

and to do our best to protect it and make it a lovely place suitable to live in,

for we have nowhere to go and survive except where we are now.

In fact, we have always cry from the earthquake that moment, we have always cry from the first to see the bodies of dead children the moment; In fact, we all cry together, to see tens of thousands of PLA personal danger and rushed to the disaster areas moment, but we have not cry, because there are too many disaster areas we need to rescue our compatriots, we need to help, we simply did not have time to cry, so we QianGREnleishui, comfort each other, we Another road, toward the disaster areas, where there is a need our help the brothers and sisters, we have to strong, we loudly told myself, now, we can not cry.

But today, three minutes, we cried, we cried the whole land of mountains and rivers touching it, over the entire Chinese nation and uniting the strength of the grief and indignation, we no longer need to suppress the sentiments in mind, no longer need to control in the past few days in Yanquan Dazhuan tears, street car on a collective whistle, sounding the alarm over the city, a city of Wu Yan, it is also crying, cry on Kuba, we have too many needs to suppress the release, cry on Kuba, We have too many depressing need venting, 3 minutes, we do not want to do what, we just cry, as we are brothers and sisters toward heaven, for those who are strong to survive the hand-foot-compatriots.

On this day, we all Chinese people, is a lifelong hard to forget the day, because today is the "national crisis," Sadness Wenchuan, the country Zhiai, we use such a way, to commemorate those in earthquake In the passing away of relatives, we used this as a way for them came in on the road toward heaven, I hope they can all the way走好， Yao Wang homeland when they look back at the earth, will see tens of thousands of their compatriots hand-foot - , Look up to the sky pray for them, so they will not be alone, not lonely,

The deceased have to, toward the heaven, where there will be no more disasters, there will be no more tears, but for those who survived the disaster in the compatriots, alive to become a challenge, let them in an instant disaster Separated from the experience of life and death, the mother and son have Qingshen, once the husband and wife Enai, the twinkling of an eye they are yin and yang, the two separated, disaster, not only their physical destruction, destruction of their soul, flesh wounds over time slowly healing, Can be the soul of grief, but not so far recovered pieces, post-quake reconstruction of their homes can, we can even build their homes more beautiful, but for us, more important is how to build their own spiritual home, how to ask The soul-deep scars.

Broken heart, tend to become very fragile, post-disaster reconstruction, the firm has become particularly important, three minutes after we wiped away tears, we can not Zaiku, to bravely live, because their relatives in heaven We watched, Tongbuyusheng, sad to tactic is not their wish to see, good to live in, they are to our expectations, think about this, it has the ruins to life for the life of the mother, "Dear Baby, if Can you live, to keep in mind that mother love you "; think that in order to save the expense of four children and teachers, we go to these family members, in their own lives to give us an opportunity to a live, To them, we have to live better.

Just as Premier Wen said the sentence, as you live, to live well, not only Premier Wens expectations, even tens of thousands of brothers and sisters of our expectations, think about all those days and nights in Disaster areas the army for help, from the ruins of their hand to you to save 1.1 points out of the broken hand, the bloodshed, they moved the hands of tile brick shift has not stopped, they run the risk of aftershocks at any time to And the death race, is to allow more people to live, so that the good live, not only for ourselves, but also to all the people we love, good living, is our responsibility as well as your Obligations.

May 12, 2008, let us all Chinese people always remember this day for it, our "national calamity," the history of the Chinese nation, engraved too many disasters, but never the candidate of our national glories , One of the disaster, and again before loading the line, then let us bury the grief of all good, clean up all the ruins, was once their homes on the land, rebuild our homes, to live boldly, to live On a good living.
