一篇重大事件的英语作文（汇集20篇）

Recently，the incident of Sanlu milk powder has become the focus of peoples attention. According to the investigation of related departments，the powder was found to contain a chemical called C3N6H6 which can cause great damage to infants health. So far，four children have died and approximately 54，000 have developed illness after drinking the milk.

From this incident，we can see that there are still more things to be done. Firstly，the government needs everything possible to ensure the quality of products，particularly the safety of food as this concerns everyones life. Secondly，as for the producers，it is very important for them to be morally honest. They should never try to pursue profit or economic growth at the expense of health and life of people. Thirdly，we consumers must attach importance to the things we eat and develop an awareness of how to protect our legal rights if cheated. Only in this way will we be able to build a more secure and harmonious society.

最近,三鹿奶粉的事件已经成为人们的关注的焦点。根据有关部门的调查,发现粉含有一种化学物质叫做C3N6H6能对婴儿的健康造成很大伤害。到目前为止,四个孩子已经死亡,大约54000人喝牛奶后发病。

从这个事件中,我们可以看到,还有更多的事情要做。首先,政府需要一切可能来确保产品的质量,尤其是食品的安全这个问题每个人的生活。其次,生产者,这对他们是非常重要的道德诚实。他们不应该试图追求利润或经济增长以牺牲人的健康和生命。第三,我们消费者必须重视我们所吃的东西和发展的意识如何保护我们的合法权利如果骗了。只有用这种方法我们能够建设一个更加安全和和谐社会。

On Friday, we learned that more than two dozen people were killed when a gunman opened fire in an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut.

Most of those who died were just young children with their whole lives ahead of them. And every parent in America has a heart heavy with hurt.

Among the fallen were also teachers – men and women who devoted their lives to helping our children fulfill their dreams.

So our hearts are broken today. We grieve for the families of those we lost. And we keep in our prayers the parents of those who survived. Because as blessed as they are to have their children home, they know that their child’s innocence has been torn away far too early.

As a nation, we have endured far too many of these tragedies in the last few years. An elementary school in Newtown. A shopping mall in Oregon. A house of worship in Wisconsin. A movie theater in Colorado. Countless street corners in places like Chicago and Philadelphia. Any of these neighborhoods could be our own. So we have to come together and we are gonna take meaningful action to prevent more

tragedies like this from happening. Regardless of the politics.

This weekend, Michelle and I are doing what I know every parent is doing – holding our children as close as we can and reminding them how much we love them.

There are families in Connecticut who can’t do that today. And they need all of us right now. Because while nothing can take the place of a lost child or loved one, all of us can extend a hand to those in need – to remind them that we are there for them; that we are praying for them; and that the love they felt for those they lost endures not just in their own memories, but also in their communities, and their country.

Thank you.

三月份去就可以去太子湾公园欣赏漂亮的樱花和绚烂的郁金香。

如果同学们想要获得很多知识，我建议大家可以去杭州科技馆，那儿有很多科学展示可以让我们自己动手去试。

One day I was on my way home while I saw a crowd getting around. I went over curiously. I was very much shocked at the sight. There lied an old man who seemed to be knocked down by a car. The driver had got away. But the strangest thing to me was that so many people were just stood there watching. No one wanted to help. Just at that time, there came a young man. He quickly took the man in his arms and rushed towards the hospital. I was wondering whether those standers-by, maybe including me, blushed with shame at this sight.

那天，在放学回家的路上，我看到一群人围在一起。我好奇地走上前一看，不由得大吃了一惊。原来有个老人被汽车撞倒了，司机逃跑了。那么多人都站在一旁，没有一个人想伸出援助之手。这时有个小伙子跑过去，抱起那个人，冲开人群就往医院跑。看到这一幕，其他人会不会羞愧得脸都红了呢?

The Olympic Opening Ceremony was an international event and the whole world was watching! The event was held in a stadium designed to seat a large group of people.

The athletes entered the stadium in a specific order. The athletes from Greece entered first in honor of the original Olympics held in Greece. Then, the other athletes followed by nation in the alphabetical order of the host country’s language. The host country’s athletes came last. So for this coming Olympics 2008, the athletes from China will enter the stadium last.

The chief of state of the host country declared the games open, followed by the raising of the Olympic Flag. Music was played and fireworks were set off in salute. Then, doves were released into the air as a symbol of peace. Runners in cross-country relays brought in the Olympic torch. The running of the torch began four weeks before the Olympic ceremony and thousands of runners took part in this. Planes and ships transported the Olympic torch to each country that lies between Greece and the host country. The most exciting moment of the Olympic ceremony was when the torch entered the stadium and lit the Olympic Flame. The Flame was kept burning until the end of the Olympic games.

When we were celebrating our mid autumn festival, across the ocean, the relatives of the victims of the 9. 11 tragedy were holding each other, crying, blessing for their love and all the survivors. Its not only a tragedy for American people, but also for the global community.

The event of September 11th, 2001 continues to change the world in ways we have to experience or comprehend. Every disaster can awaken some spirit, and this time it aroused the deepest echo from peoples hearts. The calling can be heard from the ruin for the millions who bear witness to their memory.

Never can be another time that heroes are so demanded.Seeing the collapse of the WTC, many people just stood in shock, crying in fears. The black smoke rising against the blue sky covered the sun over the people, and tore up the faith down in their hearts as well. Man is supported by the courage to carry on. It is obvious that the heroes in the calamity, dying just doing what they do, rebuild the dignity on the severely wounded ones.Everyone remembers the firemen dashing up the stairs while there are loads of people running down the stairs in the WTC.Also on Flight 93, 40 people, not even knowing one anothers name, came together to help protect the country.

The whole nation memorizes all those sacrificed; regard them as the heroes,no matter what they have contributed. As their tiny deeds to gether let the nation see signs to recover, to go through the very hard time. Now everyones life is surrounded by the heroes and new heroes are being born out of the tragedy...

One of the most touching story in the devastating time was that one husband sent a sms, just saying "I love you", to his dear one on the crashing plane. It echoed in everyones emotion senses. Love is the greatest gift that God gave us. It can really help to heal mans wound. Couples, friends, all went out, wandering together in the dawn, seeing the sun set for the first time in their ages.

Without their jobs, they came to realize the meaning of peaceful life and learn what they need most was the love from the people around them. We learn to appreciate others love and sending ours in return. Thank God we have some ones to love. Thank God the disaster calls us up for the meaning of love.

Another word most frequently used after that September day is "united". Regardless of races, all were collecting, standing in lines to give their blood, holding hands when making prayers. Strangers no longer were cold. They began to talk and might become friends. The distance between people seems to be shortened. If you call it magic, it does happen! The circle of our life cannot still be fixed in the certain area any more. The community is made up of every person living in it;no one alone should stand for the collectivity. Its high time to be united to rebuild their homeland.

Facing the ruin of the WTC, I hear the calling telling me what really matters. Looking up to heaven, I seem to get some kind of answers.

China earthquake contributionsWritten proposal

All Chinese students studying in Australia students

May 12, 2008 at 2:28 p.m., in Wenchuan County in Sichuan Province 7.8 earthquake that caused thousands of casualties now. Sudden disaster to people in disaster areas a great deal of pain. As a student, far away in our hearts has not been away from home but our motherland. We live thousands of miles away, can do little perhaps, but still Some things that we can and should do:

First of all, donations can, but must meet its own capacity to guarantee their own lives to the premise, if excessive contributions or additional work led to their own lives and learning be affected is wrong, should not be advocated.

Second, the world is also not a single country can accurate and timely forecast earthquakes, not to accuse us of the experts, it is now we should unite most of the time, we should trust our government, our soldiers, medical personnel, public information Who are struggling in the front line, we should do most of their strong backing.

Third, as a student, we should always remember our own identity, we are Chinese, our words and deeds on behalf of our countrys image, for those who insult to our national honour of speech and practice, we have what we should do Is to take the initiative and accurate expression to the reality and refute cool, radical words and deeds will only they will not feel that the quality of the people.

Finally and most important point: each in their own posts and do a good job in a matter within their own is also a contribution to the disaster areas. 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.

1908年赴日本并加入同盟会，1924年担任黄埔军校校长;1926年先后制造“中山舰事件”、“整理党务案”“4.12事件”，打击共产党和革命势力。

后任国民政府军事委员会主席，国民革命军总司令，国民党中央执行委员会常务委员会主席。

1928年任南京国民政府主席，继续进行新军阀混战。1931年“9·18”事变后，任军事委员会委员长，推行“攘外必先安内”政策，围攻红军革命根据地。1936年“西安事变”后，被迫接受抗日主张，实行第二次国共合作;1938年任中国国民党总裁，三民主义青年团团长。

抗日战争期间，任国防最高委员会，同盟国中国战区最高统帅，“皖南事变”后，掀起第三次反共高潮。

在1937年—1945年期间，蒋介石成为中国最高抗战统帅，蒋介石领导200多万国民革命军坚持八年抗战，蒋介石纵有千错万错，也不应该将其丑化矮化，也不应该将其全盘否定，蒋介石虽然有其过失之处，但仍不失为民族的领袖，不夸张地说，蒋介石是中国近现代史上的一个伟人;1943年参加美、英、中三国领导人参加的开罗会议。

抗日战争胜利后，与中共代表团在重庆进行和平谈判，1946年撕毁《停战协定》、《政协决议》，命令进攻共统区，单独召开制宪国民大会，通过宪法。

1948年擅自召开第一届国民大会，当选中华民国总统。

1949年，蒋介石父子退居台湾之后一直反对台独，反对美国分裂、“托管”台湾。

纵观中国近现代史，如果没有蒋介石，当时中国的台湾、东北被日本占领，中国将被各地军阀分割小国家，当时中国唯一可以控制有全国各地军阀、中央军、黄埔系、准嫡系和嫡系拥有几百万军力的国民政府党、政、军非蒋介石，没有第二人，所以蒋介石的存在促进了中国领土完整的重要作用。

Do you know that our school life could be dangerous if we are not careful enough? For example，one day, two students ran after each other in the hallway.Suddenly, one of them down and hurt his leg because of the wet floor.Therefore, he had to stay in hospital for two week. So I think students should always walk but not run in the hallways.And the teachers had better keep an eye on the students after class and stop them from running.At last, I hope all the students should pay attention to their safety in school.

2004年美国的路易斯安那州立大学举行的首次实地试验。现在菲律宾已经开始测验黄金米。但黄金米仍然没有得到大范围推广使用。

发明人之一，印戈·伯特利库斯说：“添加了两个新基因的稻米将于2013年提供使用。”其中一个基因提取自玉米，另一个提取自一种土壤细菌。

退休前，伯特利库斯是瑞士联邦理工学院的一员。他指责过多的规定限制了转基因农作物的发展。

反对者说转基因农作物和传统植物的杂交可能会破坏环境。反对者还质疑基因食物食用的安全性。

伯特利库斯说还从未出现过黄金米对环境或是人类造成危害的现象。许多农业组织支持这项工程。

也不乏有像包括环境组织“绿色和平”的研究人员在内的批评者的声音。几个月前，他们质疑黄金米是否能解决维他命A的缺乏。他们说，在亚洲投入转基因稻米可能会永久性改变传统的稻米品种和野生的原种稻米。

Everyone in China is looking forward to the 2008 Olympic Games. Athletes from all over the world will come to Beijing for this competition.

An Olympic athlete must be strong not only in body, but also in mind. They have to train for years to achieve the necessary strength and control over their sports to compete in the Olympics. This requires great discipline and self-sacrifice. Similarly, the Olympic athletes have to train their minds in order to compete under extreme mental pressure. In other words, and Olympic athlete must be in top condition both mentally and physically.

Speaking good English also requires great discipline and self-sacrifice. If you want to speak good English, you must be mentally and physically strong just like an Olympic athlete.

Exercises today, a five (4) when classmates next stair accidentally fell down, fortunately in LouDaoKou teacher give her your hand, and on guard at this time the teacher in charge, she hold the injured students into a (4) classes, next to let her sit down and rest. All of a sudden, should have the upstairs to see us exercises chang teacher appears in front of me, he went into a (4) classes, be caring and attentive to the wounded classmates, and looked at her wound, but no matter, just a little chafed skin, I thought, if there is no teacher standing LouDaoKou this classmate may be tamed by the students in above. It makes me think the November 29, 2010, took place in xinjiang aksu stampede, one person was critically ill in the stampede at the Chinese communist party, six people were seriously injured, 34 people slightly injured, the reason is that in the lesson hold time, the students ran down from upstairs all together, in front of the students fall cause trample, stair handrail crooked, squeezed and accident occurred.

The stampede in almost every year, is this why? First, the schools safety awareness is not enough, should be strict on campus safety awareness, there would be no stampede on college campuses. Second, the teachers dereliction of duty, the teacher is originally to students in a profession, teacher has the responsibility to manage the students behavior. Third, students quality is not high, the teacher must be taught the students to pay attention to safety, and not crowded, but they would rather go for a few minutes and injured, also dont want to be a neat team downstairs.

The word "security", we every day to say, but to really do it, is very difficult, but we can to avoid "accidents".

今天做操时，一位五(4)班的同学在下楼梯时不小心摔倒，幸亏在楼道口站岗的老师扶了她一把，这时班主任来了，她扶着受伤的同学走进旁边的一(4)班，让她坐下休息。突然，本该在楼上看我们做操的张震老师出现在我面前，他走进一(4)班，对那位受伤的同学嘘寒问暖，并查看了她的伤口，所幸没什么大碍，只是擦破了点皮而已，我心想：要是楼道口没有老师站着，这位同学可能就会被上面蜂拥而至的学生压倒。这让我联想到了2010年11月29日，发生在新疆阿克苏的踩踏事件，在这起踩踏事件中共造成1人病危，6人重伤，34人轻伤，原因是在课间操时间，学生从楼上全部一起跑下来，前面的学生摔倒引起踩踏，楼梯扶手被挤歪，因而发生事故。

这些踩踏事故几乎每年都会发生，这是为什么呢?第一，学校的安全意识不够，应该严抓校园安全意识，就不会有校园踩踏事件了。第二，老师的失职，老师本来是为了学生而出现的一种职业，老师有责任管理学生的行为。第三，学生的素质不高，老师肯定教导过学生要注意安全，上下楼不要拥挤，可他们却宁愿去争几分钟而受伤，也不愿排着整齐的队伍下楼。

“安全”这个词，我们天天在说，可要真正做到，却很难，但我们可以去避免“安全事故”的发生。

Home to a strong earthquake, the people working outside Xinjirufen. Their first thought is that their loved ones are safe ? How home-like ?

家乡遭受强烈地震，在外打工的人心急如焚。他们的第一个念头就是，亲人可安全?家园怎么样?尽快赶回家，参加抢救，重建家园。但灾害使铁路受阻，火车停运，长途车运力不足，一万多名从各地汇聚到西安中转的四川灾区民工在焦急地等待回家!

2008-05-215.12四川汶川地震一年祭 让我们一同悼念祈福

我是一个阿坝州的孩子，大学考中了成都的西南财经大学。

昨天下午，我和往常一样坐在寝室里，准备去上下午的课，突然，感觉到一阵明显的抖动，然后我立刻反应过来了，大叫一声：“地震!”同寝室一个女生大概还没反应过来，吃惊的看着我，问：“什么!”话音刚落，寝室楼已经剧烈的摇晃了起来，由于我住在女生寝室五楼，并且寝室面积比较大，于是感觉很是强烈，几乎站立不稳，伴随着翁翁声，……桌上柜子上的东西开始往下面掉;我心想……房子快塌了!

我奔出寝室门，寝室楼里传来女生们慌张的叫声……

我第一反应是跑厕所，因为厕所的间架结构比较小，但是突然反应过来。我们的宿舍是集体厕所的，面积比寝室还大正有些慌乱，不知道走道里哪个女生叫了一声：“钻桌子下!”我反应过来，立刻跑回寝室钻到了电脑桌下。下了桌子后，我立刻叫室友也下桌子，但是她已经不知去向，这时候房子里只剩下我一个人，伴随着剧烈的抖动，我在桌子下看着摇晃的床，突然想：“我还不想死啊!”

这时候摇晃似乎要好一点了，我拼命让自己冷静，说，应该不是很严重的，然后跑出寝室门，喊隔壁的好友，没想到她也不知去向……

然后我速度的返回寝室，拿好钥匙，包，关上寝室门，然后随着人群下楼。

这时候震动已经接近尾声。

跑下楼时候，女生寝室的所有人都在下面了，好友和室友都安全，好友正在给我电话，但是不通，看我下来，她很高兴。后来我们到了相对安全的宽敞地，学校的阳光广场开始讨论地震的问题，手机完全不通。

好友还说了一句：“移动不是说在喜马拉雅山上都有信号嘛……”她还说她下楼把学生证拿了汗……还把NDS也带上了我看到所有的人都掏出电话在打，然后公用电话也许多人····

小卖部的电话卡都卖完了··

银行取款的人也排成了长队，虽然有不安，但是和大家在一起，让我安心。后来我们又回了寝室拿东西，她穿的是拖鞋，回去换，没想到刚到寝室，地面又开始抖动·····我们速度拿完东西，撤离，回到阳光广场!我和好友开始讨论关于地震的问题!

我们分析得出，成都肯定不是震中，然后她说震中可能在西昌那边，我突然心中一个激灵，该不会是阿坝那边吧!心已经开始不安起来，好友用手机勉强上网开始帮我查地震的信息……

这时候旁边的人已经查到了··，听他说：“是汶川!”是汶川!!这三个字像尖刀一样扎在我心里，汶川!我从小长大的地方!我的家!我妈妈还在那里!我冲过去追问那人情况，他说：“汶川，7.6级大地震，和唐山差不多”那一刻我都懵了，手中的水杯掉到了地上。然后我开始疯狂的电话，不通……

给妈妈打，不停的，不通，用座机打，手机打……

我当时心想，我要回去，我要回去!!

后来，在座机里拨通了位于马尔康的爸爸的电话，心里顿时安心了许多，他也没消息，但是他没事……

我就在焦急中度过了下午，到了晚上，校方发出命令，禁止学生回寝室，于是大家都在广场露宿，大家心态很好，打扑克的，玩电脑的，帐篷的，席子毛毯，吃的，大家都有准备，广场中放了一个音响，在播放地震的相关情况··

我却无法安下心来，所作的只有不停的打电话，接啊!接啊!每一次忙音我心里就失望一次，那晚我打了不下上百次，偶尔的通都是：“对不起，您所拨打的电话暂时无法接通!”现在新闻消息的每一段都牵动着我的心……

我一直在心里祈祷，上天啊，一定要让我妈妈平安无事，把我换回汶川吧，让我妈妈到这里来!汶川的所有亲人们，朋友们，加油!你们一定会没事的!还有我的母亲!希望大家为他们祈祷!

Wenchuan, is the name of each of us.

To all the deceased rest in peace!

Requests all the health, wiped away tears, to continue!

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。
