【正文】 hing we coul d fi nd to m ake candl es to see the words. I becam e a good student. I wanted to study for degree but I was not al owed to do that. Later, Mr Mandel a al owed the pri son guards to joi n us. H e sai d they shoul d not be stopped from studyi ng for thei r degrees. They were not cl everer than m e, but they di d pas thei r exam s. So I knew I coul d get a degree too. That made m e feel good about m ysel f. When I fi ni shed the four years in pri son, I went to fi nd a job. Si nce I was better educated, I got a job worki ng i n an offi ce. H owever, the poli ce found out and tol d m y boss that I had ben i n pri son for bl owi ng up governm ent bui l di ngs. So I l ost m y job. I di d not work again for twenty years until Mr Mandela and the AN C cam e to power i n 1994. Al l that ti m e m y wi fe and chil dren had to beg for food and hel p from rel ati ves or fri ends. Luckil y Mr Mandel a rem em bered m e and gave m e a job taki ng touri sts around m y ol d pri son on Robben Isl and. I felt bad the fi rst tim e I tal ked to a group. Al the terror and fear of that tim e came back to m e. I rem em bered the beati ngs and the cruel ty of the guards and m y fri ends who had di ed. I fel t I woul d not be abl e to do i t, but m y famil y encouraged m e. They sai d that the job and the pay from the new South Afri ca governm ent were m y reward after worki ng al l m y l i fe for equal ri ghts for the Bl acks. So now at 51 I am proud to show vi si tors over the pri son, for I hel ped to m ake our peopl e free i n their own l and. A fol ower of Bi l Gates I have been a fri end of Bil l Gates for a l ong tim e. I knew him when he was a student at H arvard Uni versi ty. We were surpri sed when he l eft Uni versity to set up his own pany” Microsoft” and make his own software. But he was the cl ever one! He is very good at writing puter languages and al most al puters now use Microsoft software. The program “Word” is used from Britain to China! Of course he has m ade a l ot of money and that makes peopl e very jealous. They want to stop his success. Even the government i s against hi m and has tri ed to break woul d never gi ve m il k agai n. H al f a m il i on pigs and m il li ons of chickens were dead. Sand now fi l ed the wel ls i nstead of water. Peopl e were shocked. Then l ater that afternoon, another bi g quake whi ch was alm ost as strong as the fi rst one shook Tangshan. Som e of the rescue workers and doctors were trapped under the rui ns. More buil di ngs fel down. Water, food, and el etri city were hard to get. Peopl e began to wongder how l ong the di sater woul d last. Al hope was not l ost. Soon after the quakes, the arm y sent 150, 000 sol i ders to Tangshan to hel p the rescue workers. H undreds of thousands of peopl e were hel ped. The arm y ani zed team s to di g out those were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the ci ty, m ost of the 10, 000 m i ners were rescued from the coal mi nes there. Workers bui l t shel ters for survivors whose hom es had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the ci ty by trai n,truck and pl ane. Sl owl y, the ci ty began to breathe agai n. A SAFE HOME It i s sad but that peopl e di e i n earthquakes from fal i ng furni ture and bri cks. Earthquake safety i s very im portant and there i s m ore to i t than just keepi ng buil di ngs from fal i ng down. So i f your hom e i s i n an earthquake area, you shoul d prepare careful y before the earthquake es. Fi rst, make sure you buy a house which i s earthquake safe. Al pi pes shoul d be fi xed to the wal l and al wal l s shoul d be especi al y thi ck and strong. You al so have to make sure that there are bolts underneath your house. They are one of the m ost im portant ways of protecti ng a house. Make sure the buil di ng has no breaken wi ndows and i s wel l repai red. Second ,l ook at the objects i n your house. Those i n the li ving room, whi ch are the m ost li kely to hurt us, are puters, tel evi si ons and l am ps. They can be tied to tabl es or them so they won’t easil y m ove around. The kitchen, which is al so very dangerous, m ust have strong doors on al the cupboards. Thi s i s the pl ace where m any sm al l thi ngs are stored that m i ght fal down. The water heater shoul d have a case round i t too. Wi ndows are speci al probl em . When they break, gl ass can cause m any acci dents,. It i s better to use safety gl ass i f you can, especi al ly for pi ctures. Al ways rem em ber:” It is better to be safe than sorry. ” TH E STORY OF AN EYEWITNESS By Jack London N ever before i n hi story has a ci ty been so pl etel y destroyed. San Franci sco i s gone.
