Today, I'm going to tell about a big thing happen in the same month last year. May 12th, nobody will forget what happen in the day. The 14:28pm, nobody will forget what happen in that monment. A big shake happened in the part of the world in that day that monment -a big earthquake in Sichuan, part of China. That is a scar in heart of every chinese. I saw many things surpass of life, many supermen, many volunteers...We didn't have any entertainment in that followed days, just focusd and cared about one thing - survier. What was our first thing, who were our first cosideration, survier. Many people who came from different part of China only had one goal, one destination, went to Sichuan to do a little things they could do. Right now, I want to show you a song, it's about the earthquake, and you can through a little introduction on the background to know the touching stories.( In English)

From the song, do you know what is love? do you know how the magic it can make? Love create life, create hope, create future. I don't know whether you know the early a big earthquake happened in China too - Tang shan big earthquake ( near to the Beijing). The worst situation too. Disaster, we can't to avoid it, just can reduce our harmness from it, and we need to do what we can do for it when it happen. I believe that, the topics about the earthquake: brave, strong, and love. Now, redeveolpment of Sichuan is well. Just because of love, and in love we believe. Love let us hold together.
