Earthquakes are terrible natural disasters. Although we cannot avoid it, we can survive by making preparations. Here are the essential things you should always take during an earthquake.
You should take a bottle of water, it can keep you alive for a long time, if you are trapped under the ruins. Take some fruit, in case you are hungry. A torchlight and mobile can help you keep in touch with the outside world, and it is easy for rescue workers to find you quickly. Don’t put fresh fruit in the bag as they will go bad quickly and cause problems. Don’t take money, especially don’t go back to take money when the house is shaking. You may be caught in the ruins.

Good morning, everyone. My name is Wang Wei. First of all I would like to express my thanks to Mr. Zhang Sha and the city of Tangshan who are letting me talk to you. I would also like to thank you all for coming on this special occasion. Here, I wish to express my thanks to the workers who helped during that terrible disaster. Many thousands worked hard to save others and to make them feel more comfortable. I’d also like to thank the soldiers who worked day after day without rest to help those who needed it.

Thank you.3 Look at the stamps of new Tangshan and discuss what had to be done to rebuild a city after an earthquake.Sample discussion:
S1: Let’s look at the stamps. They seem to show new houses, a new city center, new factories, schools, hospitals and a new port.
S2: That shows how strong the earthquake must have been and how much damage there was if so much of Tangshan had to be replaced. S1: Yes, indeed. The people of Tangshan must have had a terrible time while the earthquake was happening.
S2: Yes. I wonder how long they had to live in temporary accommodation?
S1: Well, the United Nations praised the people of Tangshan for rebuilding their city so quickly. It only took seven years.S2: There must have been so much to do: clear the site of ruined buildings; design new ones that would withstand another earthquake; bring in new building materials, bring in the workers to build the factories, homes etc. Such a lot of work!S1: Yes, and meanwhile the people had to live in tents. They must have worried a lot about how they would pay for food and clothes. Poor things!
S2: Indeed, we owe them a lot. And they made everyone aware of the dangers of earthquakes and how to prepare for another one. They themselves were survivors in more ways than one!1 How would you feel if your home was suddenly destroyed without warning?

Thank Mr Zhang and the city government for inviting me to speak. And thank all of you to attend this activity. Everybody knows that this park will be opened to honor those who died in the terrible disaster on this day 33 years ago. We should say that all of you are very lucky to have survived.

They built new homes and offices in
only seven years. For this work, many
workers and soldiers lost their lives. We
should show our greatest honor to them.
