The Heart of China is Still Beating
The earthquake struck like a heart attack:it was sudden,unexpected and fatal.That Monday had been just a normal day for the people of Sichuan until,in the middle of a quiet spring afternoon,the earth began to shake violently.It lasted only a minute,perhaps even less,but in that short time their lives had been changed forever.
Sichuan is located in the centre of China,its heart really.When people in the rest of China first heard about the earthquake they weren’t too concerned.They were more surprised that buildings in Beijing and Shanghai had been shaken by it.It wasn’t until the next day that people began to realize just how big the disaster was:the thousands of lives lost,the hundreds of thousands of people injured,the millions of people left homeless.
There was shock,of course,but the shock didn’t last long.China is not a stranger to hardship and disaster,after all,and the Spring Festival snowstorms were still fresh in everyone’s minds.The government began an immediate rescue and recovery operation by sending thousands of army troops to the area.Local officials gathered men and machines to clear away fallen buildings and look for survivors.Doctors and nurses began working night and day to save lives.
The rest of the country responded quickly and generously.People began donating much needed food,water and blankets to be sent to the area.And every office,factory and school in the country began collecting money to help the earthquake victims.It was proof,once again,that in times of trouble the people of China open their hearts to each other.
Today,the heart of China is still beating but it is beating sadly.The people of Sichuan have suffered a great loss.Parents have lost children; children have lost parents.It will take years for them to recover.要准确~快翻呐!我马上就要了~

中国心脏仍然在跳动
地震就像一场心脏病一样袭来,如此突然,如此始料未及,如此致命,那个星期一对于四川人民来说是非常正常的一天,直到那个春日下午的中间,地面开始激烈地摇动,它持续了仅仅一分钟,可能甚至更短,但是,就在那短短的时间里,他们的生活被永远地改变了.
四川位于中国的中心位置,事实上就是中国的心脏,当中国其他地方的人刚刚听说地震的时候,他们并不太在意,他们更加惊讶的是北京和上海的大楼竟然也被它晃动了,直到第二天人们才意识到这场灾难是多么巨大：几千条生命没有了,成千上万的人受伤了,几百万人无家可归!
当然,也有震惊,但震惊并没有持续多长时间.中国对困境和灾难并不是一个陌生人,毕竟,春节的那场暴雪人们还记忆犹新.政府通过派遣几千支部队到灾区而开始了紧急救援与恢复行动.当地官员集中了人力和机械清理倒塌的楼房并寻找幸存者,医生和护士开始日夜工作拯救生命.
全国其他地方的人也快速而慷慨地做出了反应,人们开始捐献急需被送往灾区的食物、水、和毯子.全国的每一个办公室、工厂、和学校开始筹措资金去帮助地震受害者,这再一次证明了在危难时分中国人民对彼此敞开了胸怀.
今天,中国的心脏仍然在跳动,但是它跳动得非常悲伤,四川人民遭受了巨大的损失,父母失去了孩子,孩子失去了父母,他们的恢复需要几年的时间.
