“Come on, comrades. Get on board!” the commander ordered. “The situation is very urgent. We are flying to Sichuan Province. An earthquake happened this afternoon.” Hearing the terrible news, my heart sank. When the plane finally landed, we rushed out to find survivors. The whole town was destroyed.

“Help!” cried someone. I rushed there and found a girl buried in ruins. Concerned about her safety and health, I comforted her. “Hold on! You will be saved.” I spared no effort to rescue her. Half an hour later, the girl was saved. Weak as she was, she smiled to me in return for my help.

The disaster is sure to influence the lives of local people greatly, but I am confident that the survivors will recover soon and join together to rebuild a better hometown.
