It was time for a school holiday and I was at home. My family’s house was located in (位于) an area by the sea.

I just sat down in front of the television. Suddenly I heard a loud noise and then the first shock started to hit. My mom and I ran to the front door. We got out and we were standing in the street holding on to each other to stand up. The ground was covered with snow. I could remember watching black cracks in the earth snaking their way along the ground. A tree in our back yard was actually cut in half.

As suddenly as the earthquake started, it was over. Dead silence. Then a light snow began to fall. All the power was off—no radio, no TV and no communication with the outside world. We found out later that the ground area was lowered an average of 35 feet.

My dad succeeded in getting home from where he worked in the city centre. Later that evening we were told to leave the area because a terrible ocean wave was expected. We spent the night and the next day and night away from home at the shelter.

I often think about the courage my dad showed during that time. Before Dad retired, he was a senior manager of a famous local company. This company was damaged because of the quake. Dad stayed in the company to rebuild the business and rebuild our family home.

1.In which season did the earthquake take place?

A. Spring.　　　　 B. Summer.

C. Autumn.　　　　 D. Winter.

2.After the earthquake, the writer’s father ______.

A. opened up his own company

B. lived with his family and did a better job

C. helped neighbors build their houses

D. became a famous person in their town

3.What would be the best title of the passage?

A. My father　　　　　　 　　　 B. My mother and I

C. A quake in my town　　　 D. Earthquake tips
