这里好黑，寂静的只剩下希望的声音。

我在哪里？家人在哪里？

路途好难，崎岖的只剩下跋涉的声音。

你在哪里？你们在哪里？

我知道你会来，我知道你在寻找我，

你什么时候来，我会坚持到你看到我。

今天，老爸突然冒出一个念头，收养一名地震孤儿。我回答他，这是你这些年来，做的最正确的一件事。

 

晚上，看着电视上，救援部队营救出一名名幸存的人、抬出来一具具尸体时，我的泪腺好像失控了，父母的爱，为了孩子宁愿牺牲自己；老师的爱，为了学生宁愿放弃自己的生存机会；夫妻的爱，宁死也要和老伴一起；......都没在现场，我就被传染成这样，要真去了那里，我的心会哭死的。

 

老爸嘲笑我，“过去打仗，不知道要死多少人，这个时候哭啥个子，现在激动不顶用。”

 

哎，可现在除了看看电视，捐捐钱，还能做啥个子呢？

 

昨天夜里，一直做梦地震了，地震了，可梦里的我一直没慌，反而很开心。醒过来，心有余悸，“我变态啊！”想想，这几天还一直和老妈说，如果5月10日我去四川旅游就好了，正好可以赶上。老妈回了一句，“那我们怎么办？还不得急死哭死......”

昨天，看到纽约时报的头版头条报道了咱们祖国四川地震的一篇深度报道《‘No Hope’ for Children Buried in Earthquake》，不知道是不是自己的英语能力下降了很多，我总觉得他们写的不是客观公正，总是带着有色眼镜，哪怕这次自然灾害，他们也要说的是中国政府不作为的行为。真是无语。

现我这个稿子贴出来，大家看看吧。真可谓报道角度不寻常，不愧是NYTIMES。

 

‘No Hope’ for Children Buried in Earthquake

DUJIANGYAN, China — The children who were considered fortunate escaped with a broken bone or a severed limb. The others, hundreds of them, were carried out to be buried, and their remaining classmates lay crushed beneath the rubble of the schoolhouse.

“There’s no hope for them,” said Lu Zhiqing, 58, as she watched uniformed rescue workers trudge through mud and rain toward the mound of bricks and concrete that had once been a school. “There’s no way anyone’s still alive in there.”

Little remained of the original structure of the school. No standing beams, no fragments of walls. The rubble lay low against the wet earth. Dozens of people gathered around in the schoolyard, clawing at the debris, kicking it, screaming at it. Soldiers kept others from entering.

A man and woman walked away from the rubble together. He sheltered her under an umbrella as she wailed, “My child is dead! Dead!”

As dawn crept across this shattered town on Tuesday, it illuminated rows and rows of apartment blocks collapsed into piles, bodies wedged among the debris, homeless families and their neighbors clustered on the roadside, shielding themselves from the downpour with plastic tarps.

The earthquake originated here in the lush farm fields and river valleys of Sichuan Province, killing almost 10,000 people and trapping thousands more.

One of the most jarring tragedies of the disaster was the school collapse in a suburb of Dujiangyan. At least several hundred children were killed, perhaps as many as 900. Prime Minister Wen Jiabao flew here on Monday to survey the destruction, but he was powerless to ease the suffering of the survivors.

In the center of town, a woman said she had called local government officials 10 times to plead for help in rescuing her son and mother, but no one had come.

So on Tuesday morning, she stood crying before the remains of her apartment building. Her 5-month-old son was still buried in there, as was her 56-year-old mother.

“I was outside when the earthquake hit,” said the woman, Wang Xiaoni, 26. “I ran back even while the ground was still shaking.”

She shook her head. “Who’s going to help them now?”

People wandered up and down the street taking photos with cell phones and digital cameras. “This isn’t even the worst-off area,” one man said.

One block over, the façade of a white six-story residential building had sheared off, leaving one side of the apartments open to the air. Each living room had a television set untouched by the earthquake. But in the cascade of rubble at the foot of the building, a lifeless head and arm stuck out of the debris, and another body could be seen on the other side of the mound of rubble.

Across the street, a young man and his older sister walked out of an apartment building with a red duffel bag and armloads of bedding they stacked on the sidewalk.

“Everything in the apartment was destroyed,” said the man, Ji Yongtao, 27, waving a hand up at the second floor. “We need to find a place to live. We’ll spend the night in a building that was recently built, or on the first floor somewhere. We’re not going back up there.”

Dozens of people had gathered on the sidewalk by a major intersection down the street. They were constructing a huge tent, pulling a tarp over upright wooden poles they had lashed together. This would be their home for the day, and maybe the night, and maybe the next few days and nights.

Busloads of soldiers rode past in the street. But there was no immediate help for the people.

“We left with nothing but the clothes we’re wearing,” said Hu Huojin, 38, cradling her 6-year-old son in her arms. “We don’t dare stay in our homes. We’ll return when we’re told it’s safe to go back. Otherwise, we don’t dare live there.”

She gazed out at the wet street.

“I can’t even remember how long the ground shook,” she said. “It was enormous.”

An elderly couple stood under a store awning on the edge of the tent village. The man held the family dog, Chou Mer, but they had not seen their son, a cab driver, since he left home hours before the earthquake.

“We still haven’t heard from him,” said the mother, Yang Limei, 58. “Last night, we kept calling him, but we couldn’t get through. I don’t know what to do. We can’t even wait for him at home.”

Her husband, Chui Xianchao, 63, said, “The walls are still standing, but everything else fell to the ground.”

Ambulances roared by on the way to the hospitals in Chengdu, the provincial capital. Another bus rolled past carrying soldiers.

The army had appropriated public buses throughout the region, and men wearing green fatigues peered out the windows at the homeless in the street.

“No one’s come to help us yet,” Mr. Chui said. “Those soldiers are going somewhere else.”

A few miles to the south, in front of the collapsed school, a half-dozen soldiers linked hands to form a human blockade in front of the rubble. Two women tried to push their way through. The soldiers did not budge.

“There are still children in there, and we can’t help them if you keep trying to get in,” one soldier said.

The only people allowed in were teams of rescue workers and doctors. A group of doctors in white lab coats sat in a bus, waiting their turn to help. Some slept. They said no one had been brought out alive in hours.

 

今天，在招商银行等待亲爱的面试官那漫长的时间里，我几乎翻阅了会议室里所有的报纸。这几天，大家所有的焦点都是四川地震。每一幅照片都是那么的震撼。看到其中一篇稿件说，汶川的一所小学里，鞭炮声不断，可那不是喜事，当地的习俗，每放一声鞭炮，就代表送走一名孩子。据那名在现场的记者说，鞭炮声揪着父母的心，每放一声，家长们都要撕心裂肺的痛哭。而每从里面救出一名孩子，他们总是拼命地冲上前，由于很多孩子面部无法辨认，父母们只好忍痛由鞋子、衣服等物认领孩子......

 

真的看不下去了，起身离开了银行，直径回家。一路上，一直有个疯狂的念头，去灾区帮助他们。。

 

开机上网，终于看到市团委招募四川抗震救灾青年志愿者，我赶紧网上报了名。。。

 

此时此刻，自己也做不了什么，只能双手合拢，保佑他们，度过这些个梦魇般的日子。。。。

 

晚上，爸爸一直在说，不知道四川的老友怎样了，他家住六楼，电话也不通，真让人揪心......

 

wish God bless you\andyou\andyou......
