Unit 4 Earthquakes

【诵读·积累】 (2011· 福建高考)为纪念汶川大地

震三周年, 某英文报发起关于灾区新貌的征文活动。请根据图片提示, 以“Great Changes”为题, 用英语写一篇短文应征。 内容要点如下： 1. 某中学灾后三年来的变化, 如教学与活动场所, 以及师生精

神面貌等；2. 发生变化的原因； 3. 你的感想。

Great Changes I am deeply impressed by the great changes that have taken place in the school over the past three years. ①On May 12, 2008, a severe earthquake destroyed almost everything in the school. It is now, however, taking on a new look. Tall buildings have been put up, including classrooms

and laboratory buildings, and a library. There is also a newlybuilt standard playground. In the new environment, teachers and students are living happily and working hard. ②It is

really amazing that the once-ruined place has now been turned into a beautiful school, full of life. ③Obviously, without the help of the whole society, there would be no new school today. It is love and concern that have brought about the great changes. We can work wonders if we unite as a family, caring for each other and helping those in

need. Union is strength.
