en shouted loudly “there is someone，a baby，still living”.
Through some efforts，rescuers cleaned up
the ruins carefully which blocked her.Under her body lay her
baby，who was wrapped in a small red quilt with yellow flowers
scattered in red.He was about 3 or 4 months’ old.Since well
protected by mother’s body，he was totally safe.He was sleeping on
both ears when the rescuer carried him out，and his lovely and
peaceful face warmed everyone around him.The doctor along with the
rescuing team unfastened the quilt to check if the baby was all
right，and he found there was a mobile phone filled in the quilt.The
doctor looked at the screen subliminally，a written message was
already there: “My dear baby，if you could live，don’t forget how
much I love you”.As a doctor，he experienced too much of parting
forever；but at this moment，he wept.The mobile was passed，every
person who saw this message shaded tears.

地球的一个不眠之夜
河北省东北部的农村不断有些怪事发生。三天来，村子里的井水升升降降，起起伏伏。农夫注意到，水井的井壁上有深深的裂缝，裂缝里冒出臭气。农家大院里的鸡，甚至猪都紧张得不想吃食。老鼠从田地里跑出来找地方藏身。鱼缸和池塘里的鱼会往外跳。在1976年7月28日凌晨3点左右，有些人看到天上一道道明亮的光。即使天空没有飞机，在唐山城外也可以听到飞机声。在市内，有些建筑物里的水管爆裂开来。但是，唐山市的一百万居民几乎都没有把这些情况当一回事，当天晚上照常睡着了。
在凌晨3点42分，一切都开始摇晃起来。世界似乎到了末日！二十世纪最大地震中的一次就在唐山市正下方11公里处发生了。100公里以外的北京市都感到了地震，全国1/3的地方都有震感。一条8公里长30米宽的巨大裂缝横穿房舍、马路和渠道。地上一些洞穴冒出了蒸气。石头山变成了泥沙河。在可怕的15秒钟内，一座大城市就沉沦在一片废墟之中。人们遭受的灾难极为深重。2/3的人在地震中死去或受伤。成千上万个家庭遇难，许多孩子变成了孤儿。死伤的人数达到40多万。
幸存的人们又怎么能相信这是自然现象呢？人们无论朝哪里看，哪里的一切都几乎被毁了。所有的市内医院、75%的工厂和建筑物、90%的家园都消失了。残砖就像秋天的红叶覆盖着大地，然而它们是不可能被风刮走的。两座大坝垮了，多数桥梁不是塌了就是无法安全通行了。铁轨如今成了一条条废钢。好几万头牛再也挤不出奶来。50万头猪和几百万只鸡全都死了。井里满是沙子，而不是水。人们惊呆了。接着，在下午晚些时候，又一次和第一次一样强烈的地震震撼着唐山。有些医生和救援人员被困在废墟下面。更多的房屋倒塌了。水、电和食物都很难弄到。人们开始纳闷，这场灾难还会持续多久。
并不是所有的希望都破灭了。地震后不久，部队派了15万名战士到唐山来协助救援人员。数十万的人得到了救助。部队人员组成小分队，将受困的人们挖出来，将死者掩埋。在唐山市的北边，有一个万名矿工煤矿，其中多数人得救了。援救人员为那些家园被毁的幸存者盖起了避难所。用火车、卡车和飞机向市内运来了水。慢慢地，这座城市又开始出现了生机。

恭喜你！
我们很高兴地告诉你，你在以新唐山为主题的中学演讲比赛中获得第一名。评委会的五位评委听了你的演讲，都认为你的演讲是今年最好的。你的父母和你的学校会为你而骄傲！
下个月我们市将开放一个新公园，以纪念在那次可怕的灾难中死去的人们。并向那些曾经为幸存者提供过帮助的人们致敬。我们办公室想请你在7月28日上午11点给来公园的参观者进行演讲。你知道，三十

在这个特殊的日子里，我们邀请你把家人和朋友一起带来。
诚挚的，

新闻报道的结构一般分为四个部分：(一)标题、(二)导语、(三)主体、(四)结语。标题是新闻的题目，是编辑对最有新闻价值内容的浓缩、概括、提炼和再创造。撰写标题是为了撷取新闻要点、诠释新闻意义、吸引读者阅读。在今天繁忙的现代社会中，报纸的读者大多是标题浏览者。导语是消息开头的第一段或第一句话，它扼要地揭示出消息的核心内容。主体是消息的主要部分，它用充足的事实表现主题，是对导语内容的进一步开展和阐释。新闻报道的结语一般是最后一句话或者一段话，通常对全文内容作概括性的总结，或对新闻事件的发展趋势作出预测。有时，作者根据报道的事实在结语中提出令人深思的问题。
一般来说，标题、导语和主体是构成新闻报道的必不可少的三部分。可根据新闻报道的内容来确定是否要结语或其他内容(如事件和历史背景等).有时,还可将它们暗含在主体中。
在写新闻报道时，首先要注意新闻的标题具有语言幽默风趣的特点，有较强的吸引力。同时，写作依据的材料要充分，要用事实来说话，语言力求简洁。最后，报道中要有亮点，能引人深思或能让人产生强烈的兴趣。
