For several days, the water in the village wells rose and fell, rose and fell. There were deep cracks that appeared in the well walls.At least one well had some smelly gas coming out of it. Chickens and even pigs were too nervous to eat, and dogs refused to go inside buildings. Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide, and fish jumped out of the water.
1).What were some of the strange things happening before the earthquake? Do you think they were warning signs ? Why or why not?
I think they were warning signs.Senses of some of the animals are very sharp,which can feel the coming of the natural disaster.What’s more, the movement inside the earth may cause some changes of the objects on its surface.
2).What does the writer mean by “Slowly , the city began to breathe again”?
By using the sentence “Slowly, the city began to breathe again,”the author intends to tell us that the city begins to come to life gradually.
3).What kind of help do you think people who have suffered an earthquake need?
People who have suffered an earthquake need much help.First of all, they need people to help dig out those who are trapped under the ruins and bury the dead. What’s more, medical workers are needed to treat the victims in the earthquake.Water, food and shelter are what they really need after the earthquake.
