Wenchuan Earthquake

At 2:38 on May 12th,

2008, a big earthquake took place in Wenchuan, Sichuan. It was one of the strongest

earthquakes in the history of China.

As nobody knew

there was going to be an earthquake, they were so frightened when it happened.

For a moment almost everything was in ruins. Houses and even buildings fell

down and roads and bridges were destroyed. Over 60,000 people , including

pupils and students were killed and thousands of others became homeless.

Hearing the news,

the government took immediate action. A great many soldiers were sent there to

rescue the people from danger. Lots of volunteers offered to help. Large

quantities of food, water, tents, and medicine were transported from all over

China and other parts of the world to the earthquake-stricken areas.

People in the

disaster areas don’t lose hope. Instead they are determined to rebuild their homes.

·

警醒人们不忘过去；

其他建筑同样反映中华文化(故宫、颐和园等)，重建并非必须；
