Railways are broken, which causes trains to run off. Sometimes thousands of people are killed in different ways. About 60,000 were killed in l783 in the south of Italy. Some people say that earthquakes often happen near volcanoes(火山)，but this is not true. The centers of some earthquakes are under the sea. The bottoms of the sea suddenly move.

These waves travel long distances and rush over the land when they reach it, breaking down houses and other buildings, even more than the earthquake itself.

They like to go walking in the hills on the outskirts of their town. One sunny day in August, they decided to walk over the hills to the next town. After about an hour, they came to a small village. They stopped for a drink of water. Then they continued walking. About five minutes later, they came to the edge of a large field. They were walking across the field when Martin suddenly shouted to Peter, “Peter! A snake just bit me!” Peter saw a brown snake moving across the field. Peter ran back to his friend.He told Martin not to move. Martin felt a sharp pain in his right foot. Peter remembered the first aid(急救)he learned at school. He took two towels out of his bag. He wrapped one towel below the snake bite. He wrapped the other towel above the bite. “We need a doctor,” Peter said. “Maybe there’s one in the village we just passed. Stay here. I’ll go and check.” Martin sat down. He didn’t look very well. Peter ran back to the small village. He saw two men inside a restaurant. Peter ran inside. “Please help me,” he said to the men. “A snake has bitten my friend.” “Calm down,” said one Of the men. “Where is the snake bite?” “On his right foot,” said Peter.” “Can you help him?” “Yes, I can,” the man answered.. “But first, can you describe the snake?” “Yes. it was about two feet long. It was brown with a white mark on its head.” “That’s good,” said the man. “It was a field snake. They’re not poisonous. Your friend is probably OK. Now, take me to him.” Peter took the man to see Martin. The man picked up Martin and carried him to his car in the village. He drove both boys to the town hospital and a doctor treated Martin. He was all right. (责任编辑：admin) |
