Surviving Hurricane Sandy(飓风桑迪)
Natalie Doan 14 has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway New
York Living just a few blocks from the beach Natalie can see the ocean
and hear the waves from her house It’s the ocean that makes
Rockaway so special she says
On October 29 2012 that ocean turned fierce That night
Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast and Rockaway was hit
especially hard Fortunately Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly
before the city’s bridges closed
When they returned to Rockaway the next day they found their
neighborhood in ruins Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes
and were living far away All around her people were suffering
especially the elderly Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to
temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn 2
In the following few days the men and women helping Rockaway
recover inspired Natalie Volunteers came with carloads of donated
clothing and toys Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others
rebuild Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water
and food to elderly people trapped in powerless highrise buildings
My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me Natalie
says but I can always choose how I deal with it
Natalie’s choice was to help
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors
who wanted to help Natalie posted information about a boy named
Patrick who lost his baseball card collection when his house burned
down Within days Patrick’s collection was replaced
In the coming months her website page helped lots of kids
Christopher who received a new basketball Charlie who got a new
keyboard Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring
muchneeded supplies to Rockaway Her efforts made her a famous
person Last April she was invited to the White House and honored as a
Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change
Today the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway but
hope is in the air The streets are clear and many homes have been
rebuilt I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway Natalie declares
My neighborhood will be back even stronger than before 3

planet but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth
　　On 17 July a piece of four kilometers wide comet enters the Earth’s
atmosphere with a massive explosion About half of the piece is
destroyed but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times

Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole The wall of
water a kilometer high rushes towards southern Africa at 800

millions of people are drowned
　 　 Before the waves reach South America the second piece of the
comet lands in Argentina Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the
Andes Mountains The shock waves move north into California and all
around the Pacific Ocean The cities of Los Angeles San Francisco and
Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes Millions of people in
the southern half of the Earth are already dead and the north won’t

ruined The sun won’t be seen again for many years Wars break out as
countries fight for food A year later no more than 10 million people
