It was time for a school holiday and I was at home. My family’s house was located in (位于) an area by the sea.

I just sat down in front of the television. Suddenly I heard a loud noise and then the first shock started to hit. My mom and I ran to the front door. We got out and we were standing in the street holding on to each other to stand up. The ground was covered with snow. I could remember watching black cracks in the earth snaking their way along the ground. A tree in our back yard was actually cut in half.

As suddenly as the earthquake started, it was over. Dead silence. Then a light snow began to fall. All the power was off—no radio, no TV and no communication with the outside world. We found out later that the ground area was lowered an average of 35 feet.

My dad succeeded in getting home from where he worked in the city centre. Later that evening we were told to leave the area because a terrible ocean wave was expected. We spent the night and the next day and night away from home at the shelter.

Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together.Others say that the opposite is true；that international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred.There is probably some truth in both arguments，but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sports encourage international brotherhood. Not only was there the incident of tragedy involving murder of athletes，but the Games were also ruined by less incidents caused principally by minor national contests.

One country received its second?place medals with visible anger after the hockey final.There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey(曲棍球) match，the losers objecting to the final decisions.They were convinced that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’（对手） victory was unfair. Their manager was in a rage when he said，“This isn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（中止） of the team for at least three years.

The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place to Russia，after a disputable end to their contest.The game had ended in disorder.It was thought at first that the United States had won by a single point，but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play.A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other，and another player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the US had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. An appeal jury(评审委员会)debated the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand. The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals.

Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals or in non?national teams，might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism(爱国主义)．
