[00:15.54]A NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN'T SLEEP
[00:19.62]Strange things were happening in the countryside in northeast Hebei.
[00:26.28]For three days the water in the village wells rose and fell,rose and fell.
[00:34.53]Farmer'swives noticed that the well walls had deep cracks 2 in them.
[00:41.51]A smelly 3 gas came out of the cracks.
[00:46.18]In the farmyards,the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat.
[00:53.32]Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide.
[00:58.75]Fish jumped out of bowls and ponds.
[01:04.31]At about 3:00 am on July 28,1976,people saw bright lights in the sky.
[01:13.06]The sound of planes could be heard outside Tangshan
[01:18.63]even when no planes were in the sky.
[01:23.49]In the city,the water pipes in some buildings cracked 4 and burst 5.
[01:30.96]But the one million people of the city,
[01:35.50]who thought little of these events,went to bed as usual that night.
[01:41.98]At 3:42 am everything began to shake.
[01:47.83]It seemed that the world was at an end!
[01:52.80]Eleven kilometres directly 6 below the city
[01:58.05]the greatest earthquake of the 20th century began.
[02:03.40]It was heard in Beijing,which is one hundred kilometres away.
[02:09.78]One-third of the nation felt it.
[02:14.64]A huge crack 1 that was eight kilometres long
[02:20.20]and thirty metres wide cut across houses,roads and canals 8.
[02:28.14]Steam burst from holes in the ground.
[02:33.10]Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt.
[02:38.38]In fifteen terrible seconds a large city lay in ruins.
[02:45.93]Two-thirds of the people died or were injured 9 during the earthquake.
[02:52.59]Thousands of families were killed and many children were left without parents.
[02:59.67]The number of people who were killed or injured reached more than 400,000.
[03:07.32]But how could the survivors 11 believe it was natural?
[03:12.97]Everywhere they looked nearly everything was destroyed.
[03:18.53]All of the city's hospitals,
[03:22.68]75% of its factories and building and 90% of its homes were gone.
[03:31.04]Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves.
[03:36.61]No wind,however,could blow them away.
[03:41.96]Two dams fell and most of the bridges also fell or were not safe for travelling.
[03:50.32]The railway tracks 12 were now useless pieces of steel.
[03:55.65]Tens of thousands of cows would never give milk again.
[04:01.21]Half a million pigs and millions of chickens had died.
[04:06.67]Sand now filled the wells instead of water.People were shocked.
[04:13.81]Then,later that afternoon,another big quake 7 shook Tangshan.
[04:21.25]Some of the rescue workers and doctors were trapped 13 under the ruins.
[04:27.42]More buildings fell down.Water,food,and electricity were hard to get.
[04:35.07]People began to wonder how long the disaster would last.
[04:41.13]All hope was not lost.
[04:45.26]The army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers.
[04:53.20]Hundreds of thousands of people were helped.
[04:57.46]The army organized teams to dig 15 out those who were rapped 14 and to bury the dead.
[05:04.40]To the north of the city,
[05:08.38]most of the 10,000 miners 16 were rescued from the coal mines.
[05:14.31]Workers built shelters 17 for survivors whose homes had been destroyed.
[05:21.36]Fresh water was taken to the city by train,truck and plane.
[05:27.31]Slowly,the city began to breathe again.

[13:05.95]THE STORY OF AN EYEWITNESS 22 by Jack 23 London
[13:11.72]Never before in history has a city been so completely 24 destroyed.
[13:18.67]San Francisco is gone.
[13:22.74]Nothing is left of it but memories and some houses far from the centre of the city
[13:29.80]Its businesses are gone.
[13:33.64]The factories,hotels and palaces are all gone too.
[13:39.80]Within an hour after the earthquake,
[13:43.95]the smoke of San Francisco's fires could be seen a 160 kilometres away.
[13:51.71]The sun was red in the dark sky.There was no stopping the fires.
[13:59.16]There was no way to organize or communicate.
[14:03.83]The steel railway tracks were now useless.
[14:08.69]And the great pipes for carrying water under the streets had burst.
[14:14.75]All of the ways man had made to keep the city safe
[14:20.21]were gone in the thirty seconds the earth moved.
[14:25.25]Out at sea it was calm.No wind came up.
[14:30.82]Yet from every direction -- east,west,north,and south,
[14:37.06]strong winds blew upon the unlucky city.
[14:42.21]Man himself had to make ruins of some of the city's best buildings
[14:48.45]so that they would not be a danger to those in the streets.
[14:53.73]A list of buildings not destroyed was now only a few addresses.
[15:00.49]A list of the brave men and women would fill a library.
[15:05.95]A list of all those killed will never be made.
[15:11.23]Amazing as it may seem,Wednesday night was a quiet night.
[15:17.29]There were no crowds.The policemen said nothing;even their horses were quiet.
[15:25.05]There were no shouts or people doing crazy things.
[15:30.01]In all those terrible hours I saw not one woman who cried,
[15:36.07]not one man who was excited.
[15:40.23]Before the fires,through the night,
[15:44.59]thousands and thousands of people who had lost their homes left for safety.
[15:51.14]Some were covered in blandets.
[15:55.09]Sometimes whole families put everything they owned and could save into wagons 25.
[16:01.85]They helped one another climb the high hills around the city.
[16:07.21]Never in all San Francisco's history were her people so kind as on terrible night.
