What is the mood of this p

29、assage? How is it created? 3. Why do you think the writer chooses to express his feelings about the quake rather than simply report what had happened? 4.

30、 Suggested answers: 1. A writer’s who didn’t see the earthquake. He uses the third-person to describe the quake. His description is very objective.

31、f “we”. 2. The mood is serious and a bit sad. It is created by giving details of how many people and animals were killed or injured and how many buildings were destroyed. 3.

32、make the reading more interesting. 4. I think the reason is that, as usual, night is the time to sleep, and night should be safe and quiet. But that night everything changed. The writer uses A NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN’T SLEEP as a title to show how terrible and how unusual that night was. 5. Here we c

33、an see that the writer compared the city to a person who suffered a lot in the disaster. He felt her pain, and he worried about her.

35、nervous. Fish jumped out of bowls and ponds. At 3:00 am on July, 1976, people saw bright lights in the sky and heard the sound of planes even when no planes were in the sky. The water pipes in some buildings cracked and burst. At 3:42 am everything began to shake. It seemed that the world was at th

36、e end! One-third of the nation felt it. A huge crack cut across the city. In fifteen terrible seconds a large city lay in ruins. Two-thirds of the people died or were injured. Nearly everything was destroyed in the city. 75% of its factories and 90% of its homes were gone. Then later that afternoon,

37、 another big earthquake shook Tangshan. People began to wonder how long the disaster would last. All hope was not lost. The army sent 150 000 soldiers to help them.
