I was sleeping in my room when my bed started shaking and a loud noise was heard. I woke up and my mom was screaming my name. Next moment I was running along with my younger sister, mom and dad. Before I ran out of the door, I realized my elder sister hadn’t come out yet. So I screamed her name at the top of my voice. My mom said she had gone to her class. Then the four of us, along with many others, were running on the staircase. We lived on the seventh floor, so I thought we would not be able to make it and the building would fall before we managed to reach even the fourth floor. My dad’s head was injured by something falling down. I did try to put my hand over his head. When we reached the sixth floor, the building split into two. We had no way to get down.
The next thing I remember is silence. There were around 30 people on the staircase and none could react. Five minutes later, someone opened the door of the sixth-floor flat. We all went in. We were wondering how would get down. From the balcony of the sixth-floor flat, I saw people standing on the ground floor. All eyes were stuck on us. I could see my elder sister crying.
Our first hope of surviving came when a worker climbed a rope to where we were. That was the first time we thought maybe we could get down. Half an hour passed and we were still trapped. Finally RSS people arrived with ropes. They got people down one by one. My biggest worry was how my dad would get down. Finally after two and a half hours, we all got down.
That day we saw the power of nature. It has taken more than two years to build the flats and it took just one and a half minutes to destroy the structure.

【解析】略
I heard a shotgun blast.I must have been hit because I was down and felt it in my stomach.I was lying on the ground of a parking a lot in the dark,scared,hurt and alone,not knowing if I would live or die.It seemed so real,ever thought it was a dream.
This dream,after my father’s death,help me understand the shock and physical hurt I was going through.I bad never experienced the loss of someone I loved.It was as if a part of me had died.
I soon began to receive and experience the incredible healing(康复)power of love.It was an honest outpouring from the people who surrounded me,wrote letters and called.One expression of sympathy I will always remember came from my friend Diana who lost her mother to cancer when she was a teenager.Soon after we returned home from Dad’s funeral there was a knock at the door.There Diana stood holding the most beautiful bouquet of flower.She put her hand over her heart and said two words,“My mother.”We didn’t need to talk.I knew she was telling me about the love she lives on. She knew how I was feeling and wanted to share this time with me.
During this time,my tears would come as easily as the memories of Dad.I believe tears are like holy water.They flow from the well of our hearts, where we hold our feelings.I stayed with my sadness.I shared it with others and received great comfort because they too had sadness.
My mother said she gardened with her grief.Her yard was never more beautiful than the year my father died.I have learned that our sadness ennobles us as humans.It means we have loved deeply.It is this love that will never die.I wrote about this in a poem the summer after my Dad died.
MY FATHER | |
I think I am letting him go. It is not that my love is diminished or that I miss him less. It is only that the sun is up and there is no milk in the refrigerator and the bunny got out of the cage And is eating my red geraniums. | I think I can letting him go. But sometimes at night Before I go to sleep I fill the tears fill up my eyes and run down my cheeks. I do not think I will ever let him go. but he gone. |
