earthquake
EarthquakeA 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit the Pacific coastal areas of northeastern and eastern Japan on March 11, triggering enormous tsunami. Heavy casualties and extensive damage have been caused by the twin disasters. The National Police Agency said, on 31st Mar, that the catastrophic earthquake and ensuing tsunami have left 11,063 people dead and 17,258 others unaccounted for in Japan by 10:00 am local time.I felt sorrowful when I heard about the bad news. Why there were so many disasters in the world? I looked up some files about the top worst earthquakes in the past ten years from internet. And some earthquakes even came with tsunamis. It was said that 300, 00 of people died in 2004 as a result of the earthquake and tsunami happened in Indonesia. Also in 2008, another big earthquake happened in China, and more than 7,000 passed away.What is an earthquake? An earthquake is a tremor of the earth's surface usually triggered by the release of underground stress along fault lines. This release causes movement in masses of rock and resulting shock waves. In spite of extensive research and sophisticated equipment, it is impossible to predict an earthquake, although experts can estimate the likelihood of an earthquake occurring in a particular region.There are several earthquake magnitudes. Some earthquakes are too small to be felt but can cause movement of the earth, opening up holes and displacing rocks. Shock waves from a very powerful earthquake can triggersmaller quakes hundreds of miles away from the epicenter. Approximately 1,000 earthquakes measuring 5.0 and above occur yearly. Earthquakes of the greatest intensity happen about once a year and major earthquakes (7.0-7.9) occur about 18 times a year. Strong earthquakes (6.0-6.9) occur about 10 times a month and moderate earthquakes (5.0-5.9) happen more than twice daily. Most earthquakes are not even noticed by the general public, since they happen either under the ocean or in unpopulated areas. Sometimes an earthquake under the ocean can be so severe; it will cause a tsunami, responsible for far greater damage.The greatest danger of an earthquake comes from falling buildings and structures and flying glass, stones and other objects. What can you do if you live in an earthquake-prone area? What can we do to protect ourselves from being hurt? Here are some steps that can be taken to minimize risks which searched from internet.Before an earthquake: Affix bookcases, cabinets, refrigerators and furniture to the walls; Fit cabinets with "childproof locks," so doors will remain closed and items won't fly out.Have a family evacuation plan including phone numbers and a safe place to which to evacuate. Establish escape routes from each room in the house. Have a backpack prepared and attached to the bed, containing shoes, a flashlight and batteries, keys, money, first-aid supplies and medicines, a knife, food, water, ID and insurance information. Keep shoes next to your bed, soyou can put them on as soon as a quake begins.During an earthquake: If you are indoors, find a secure location to wait out the quake, such as under a heavy table or desk or in an interior hallway where you can brace yourself between two walls. Doorways are among the safest places to stand, thanks to the strong beams overhead. However, watch out for swinging doors. Stay away from windows.If you are outdoors, try to get into an open area, away from falling buildings, power lines, trees, etc. Do NOT use your automobile unless there is an emergency. If you are in your car, pull over to the side, away from power lines and overpasses, and stay inside the car until the shaking has subsided.In beach place: So long as under the cliff cannot the suitable security, but because the tsunami follows the earthquake but to come frequently, therefore after vibrates stops leaving the beach as soon as possible to the higher open field shift. The aftershock risk did not like the tsunami to be so fearful.Keep these drills in mind to enhance our ability to stay safe and protected and learn how to avoid accidental injuries.What should we do after disaster?To live with a smileThat is the message Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao left with a Japanese family that lost almost all of its possessions in the devastating March earthquake and tsunami. It is also the message from which we should get.As a parting gift, the premier left paper cranes with some children shelteringin a primary school. The cranes were folded by Chinese children from Wenchuan, Sichuan, a city that was devastated by a huge earthquake three years ago."Disasters can destroy homes, but they cannot destroy the spirit of the people."5.12 is a special day for our Chinese as mourn for fatal victims of Wenchuan quake. The quake has probably cast a darker shadow over the lives of person, especially those who became disabled in the quake. The government promised that living conditions and the level of economic and social development in quake-hit areas would reach or surpass that prior to the disaster. However, they still have a long way to go before achieving a full recovery.That’s all that I want to say. Cheer up and keep on going. You have our whole-hearted benediction.进入20世纪以来，地球上灾难频发，每一次灾难都给人们带来了巨大的伤痛。
地震大自然最具破坏力的灾难

它的发生比你想象的要更频繁。
In the 24 hours after you read this, 400 to 500 earthquakes will shake the earth. You won't notice most of them because you live in a relatively stable area or the quake is too far away or because the quake will be too small to notice.就在你读到本文之后的24小时之内，地球上就会发生400到500次地震。
大多数地震你不会注意到，原因在于，你居住的地区相对来说比较平稳，或者你距地震很远，或者地震太小而注意不到。
Earthquakes are caused by sudden breaks in rock masses deep in the earth. Rock masses are always under very high pressure. If the pressure in a certain area become too much and the rock masses break, an earthquake happens. But exactly when the rock masses reach the breaking point is a mystery.地震是由于地球深层的岩层突然断裂而引发的。

第二部分阅读判断第一篇Inventor of LEDLED的发明者当Nick Holonyak着手用半导体含金创造一种新的可视照明设备的时候，同事们都认为他不现实。
今天，他发现的发光二极管，或叫LED，使用范围覆盖从DVD到机场警钟的一切东西。
他的许多学生继续着他的工作，发明了交通灯中使用的照明设备和其他的日用技术。
2004年4月23号，Holoyak在华盛顿的一次典礼上被授予Lemelson-MIT项目的50万美元的奖金。
这是麻省理工的Lemelson-MIT项目第十年颁奖给杰出的发明人。
“任何时候你得了奖，不论是大是小，总是一分惊喜。
”Holonyad说。
Holonyak，75岁，是20世纪50年代初期晶体管的发明者John Bardeen的学生。
从研究生院毕业之后，Holonyak在Bell实验室工作。
之后去了通用电器公司，在那里他发明了一种开关，现在家用减光开关中普遍使用。
后来，Holonyak开始研究如何应用半导体发电。
当他的同事们正在研究如何发出看不见的光时，他却想要看得见的光。
1962年他发明的LED，现在的使用寿命可以比白炽灯泡长十倍，而且更环保、更经济。
Holonyak现在是伊利诺斯大学电子、计算机工程和物理专业的教授，他说他预料到LED的使用有可能像今天这样普遍，但没有意识到它会有多少用途。
“开始的时候你并不知道，你认为你在做一件很重要的事情，你认为它值得做，但是你不能说出要付出多大的代价，什么时候付出，怎样付出。
你并不知道。
”他说。
Lemelson-MIT项目同样授予75岁的Edith Flanigen 10万美元的终身成就奖，她的成就是创造新一代的“分子筛”，也就是可以通过大小来分离分子。

抗震救灾英语发言稿范文
Today, I stand before you to address the issue of earthquake disaster relief. Earthquakes are natural disasters that have caused immense suffering and loss of life across the world. As we witness the aftermath of such devastating events, it is our responsibility to come togetherand provide support to those in need. In this speech, I will highlight the importance of earthquake disaster relief efforts, discuss the challenges we face, and emphasize the role of the international community in alleviating the suffering of affected individuals.First and foremost, earthquake disaster relief is crucial in ensuringthe survival and well-being of those affected. Earthquakes can cause widespread destruction, leaving countless people without shelter, food, water, and medical care. By mobilizing resources and providing immediate assistance, we can save lives and minimize the impact of the disaster. This includes deploying search and rescue teams, providing medical aid, and distributing food and water to those in need.One of the greatest challenges in earthquake disaster relief is the logistical aspect. Earthquakes often strike in remote or inaccessible areas, making it difficult to reach affected populations. This necessitates the coordination of various agencies, such as the Red Cross, United Nations agencies, and local authorities, to ensure a coordinated and efficient response. Additionally, the transportation of relief supplies and personnel to these areas can be hindered by damaged infrastructure, such as roads and bridges. Overcoming these challenges requires a well-planned and executed strategy.Furthermore, long-term recovery and reconstruction efforts are essential to restore the lives of earthquake survivors. This involves not only rebuilding homes and infrastructure but also addressing the social and psychological impact of the disaster. Providing counseling services, establishing temporary housing, and supporting education and employment opportunities are crucial in helping individuals and communities recover from the trauma of the earthquake.The role of the international community in earthquake disaster relief cannot be overstated. Countries around the world have shown solidarityby offering financial assistance, deploying search and rescue teams, andproviding technical expertise. This collective effort is what enables us to respond effectively to such emergencies. Moreover, international cooperation in terms of sharing best practices and lessons learned from past earthquakes can help improve our response to future disasters.In conclusion, earthquake disaster relief is a critical endeavor that requires the collective efforts of governments, organizations, and individuals. By coming together and providing immediate assistance, we can save lives and alleviate the suffering of those affected. Additionally, long-term recovery and reconstruction efforts areessential to rebuild communities and restore lives. The international community must continue to collaborate and support each other in order to effectively address the challenges posed by earthquakes.Let us remember that in times of crisis, it is our shared humanity that binds us together. By working hand in hand, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by earthquakes and other natural disasters. Thank you.。
earthquake的英语作文
earthquake的英语作文I was sitting in my living room, watching TV, when suddenly the whole room started shaking. At first, I thought it was just a big truck passing by, but then I realized it was an earthquake. The ground was shaking so violently that I could barely stand up. It was a terrifying experience, and I felt completely helpless.After the shaking finally stopped, I quickly ran outside to see if everyone else was okay. The streets were chaotic, with people running in all directions and sirens blaring in the distance. It was a scene of utter confusion and panic. I felt a sense of relief that I had made it through the earthquake unharmed, but I also felt a deep sense of sadness for those who may have been injured or worse.The aftermath of the earthquake was devastating. Buildings had collapsed, roads were cracked, and there was debris everywhere. It was a heartbreaking sight to see thedestruction that had been caused by the earthquake. I knew that it would take a long time for the community to recover from this disaster.In the days following the earthquake, there was a strong sense of solidarity among the community. People came together to help those who had been affected by the earthquake, whether it was by donating food and supplies or offering a helping hand in the cleanup efforts. It was inspiring to see how everyone rallied together in the face of such a tragedy.As time passed, the community slowly began to rebuild and recover. It was a long and difficult process, but eventually, things started to return to normal. The earthquake had left a lasting impact on the community, but it also brought people closer together and reminded us of the importance of supporting one another in times of need.Overall, the earthquake was a terrifying and devastating experience, but it also brought out the resilience and compassion of the community. It was areminder of the unpredictable and uncontrollable forces of nature, but also of the strength and unity of humanity.。

An earthquake is a shaking of the ground caused by the sudden breaking and shifting of large sections of Earth's rocky outer shell The force of an earthquake depends on how much rock breaks and how far it shifts A severe earthquake may release energy 10,000 times as great as that of the first atomic bomb
Earthquakes almost never kill people directd injuries in earthquakes result from falling objects and the collapse of buildings, bridges, and other structures. Fire resulting from broken gas or power lines is another major danger during a quake Spills of hazardous chemicals are also a concern during an earthquake
