       Sophia Wu, 25, is a young Chinese woman who does business with her family in Santiago, Chile
(智利). On February 27, she experienced a night that she will never forget.
       "I was asleep and was woken up by powerful shaking at around 3:30 in the morning. My whole
room was moving and I couldn't stand still. I wanted to run downstairs and go outside, but suddenly
the wall got broken and the lights in the room went out. The room became so shaky that I couldn't
move at all."
       That night an 8.8-magnitude (震級(jí)) earthquake hit Chile.  Buildings and bridges fell down.
Electricity (電) and water services shut down. The Chilean Red Cross reported that about 500,000
homes were destroyed and more than 800 people died.
       The earthquake has been the fifth strongest since 1900. More than 90 aftershocks (余震)
followed the earthquake.  A tsunami (海嘯) was set off in the Pacific Ocean by the earthquake.
       Scientists say that there are about 500,000 earthquakes in the world each year. Of these, only
20% are felt, and 100 of them cause damage.
       So far, scientists haven't found a way to predict earthquakes. But you can learn to protect yourself
during an earthquake.  The most important thing to remember is to drop,  cover and hold on.  So
remember to drop to the floor, get under something for cover and hold onto something strong during
the shaking.

       There is always something that we can never forget. And it can really change our life. 
       Time is important for everyone. It organizes our everyday moments. However, ①before I received
a watch from my father, time never had any importance in my life.
It organized my life and made me more
responsible. 
       I received this gift on a Sunday. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to pick up Uncle Jim and take
him to my father’s house. However, I was late because I hung out with my friends. Later on that day,
around 11:00 am, I remembered my uncle and went to the airport to meet him, but I was too late. He had
left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house. 
       I got to my father’s house at 2:00 pm that day. ② Looking at my father’s face, I felt ashamed
(羞愧的) at that moment. My father asked me to sit next to him and he handed me this watch as a gift.
Then he said, "Bob, did you have fun with your friends today?" "Yes, Father, and I’m sorry about not
picking up Uncle Jim," I replied. He then said, "What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry
for your actions. I think you should learn something from it, and this watch will be a reminder for you in
your future life." ③ The watch is very important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson
that I learned from it.
 
       Today I still remember my father’s words"Respect time and never be late for anything."
