Surviving Hurricane Sandy(飓风桑迪)
Natalie Doan 14 has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway New
York Living just a few blocks from the beach Natalie can see the ocean
and hear the waves from her house It’s the ocean that makes
Rockaway so special she says
On October 29 2012 that ocean turned fierce That night
Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast and Rockaway was hit
especially hard Fortunately Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly
before the city’s bridges closed
When they returned to Rockaway the next day they found their
neighborhood in ruins Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes
and were living far away All around her people were suffering
especially the elderly Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to
temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn 2
In the following few days the men and women helping Rockaway
recover inspired Natalie Volunteers came with carloads of donated
clothing and toys Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others
rebuild Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water
and food to elderly people trapped in powerless highrise buildings
My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me Natalie
says but I can always choose how I deal with it
Natalie’s choice was to help
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors
who wanted to help Natalie posted information about a boy named
Patrick who lost his baseball card collection when his house burned
down Within days Patrick’s collection was replaced
In the coming months her website page helped lots of kids
Christopher who received a new basketball Charlie who got a new
keyboard Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring
muchneeded supplies to Rockaway Her efforts made her a famous
person Last April she was invited to the White House and honored as a
Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change
Today the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway but
hope is in the air The streets are clear and many homes have been
rebuilt I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway Natalie declares
My neighborhood will be back even stronger than before 3

　 　 The year is 2094 It has been announced that a 5
comet( 彗星)is heading towards the Earth Most of it will miss our
planet but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth
　　On 17 July a piece of four kilometers wide comet enters the Earth’s
atmosphere with a massive explosion About half of the piece is
destroyed but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times
the speed of sound The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the seabed
Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole The wall of
water a kilometer high rushes towards southern Africa at 800
kilometers an hour Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and
millions of people are drowned
　 　 Before the waves reach South America the second piece of the
comet lands in Argentina Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the
Andes Mountains The shock waves move north into California and all
around the Pacific Ocean The cities of Los Angeles San Francisco and
Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes Millions of people in
the southern half of the Earth are already dead and the north won’t
escape for long Because of the explosions the sun is hidden by clouds
of dust temperatures around the world fall to almost zero Crops are
ruined The sun won’t be seen again for many years Wars break out as
countries fight for food A year later no more than 10 million people
remain alive
　　Could it really happen In fact it has already happened more than 6
once in the history of the Earth The dinosaurs were on the Earth for
over 160 million years Then 65 million years ago they suddenly
disappeared Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of
object in space The dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that
followed and they died out Will we meet the same end

An Announcement
It was a small town which lay by the coast Most people
there lived by catching fish The hurricanes often struck the
area from July to October Some of the people died on the
sea when their boats were blown over by the heavy winds
So they paid much attention to the weather forecast( 天气

We often hear the saying You’ve a greater chance of
being struck by lightning than It is used to describe
something that hasn’t got much chance of happening
However this common saying undermines( 削弱)the very
real danger of lightning
Last Friday at least five people were killed by lightning in Nepal
Lightning strikes are the second most common cause of deaths among
natural disasters in the US The first is floods Around 400 people
nationwide are struck by lightning each year and of those about 73
people die More people are killed by lightning than by tornadoes and
hurricanes 13
Because lightning kills only one or two people at a time its danger
does not receive as much attention as other disasters
To raise awareness( 意 识 )of the damage of lightning the US has
made June 22～28 National Lightning Safety Week it aims to warn the
public of the danger of lightning and provide safety tips about what to
do during thunderstorms
If you can hear thunder(雷) you are in danger of being struck by
lightning said Rocky Lopes a disaster educator at the American Red
Cross
Thunder means that lightning is close enough to hit you at any
minute so you should move indoors immediately and stay there until
the storm has ended The single most important thing to remember is to
find a hiding place Lopes said
Summer is the time for most lightning storms so when lightning
strikes across the sky remember these safety tips stop working fishing
swimming or playing in an open area
If you count less than ten seconds between the thunder and the
lightning flash take cover inside the nearest building If that is not
possible follow these instructions
Do not stand under a tree
Do not use a mobile phone
Get off bicycles or motorcycles 14
Crouch(蹲)down if there is no hiding place

A there is a greater chance of being killed by lightning than by any other
natural disaster
B it is the most dangerous among all the natural disasters
C the chance that a person to be struck by lightning is very small
