Землетрясение в Юнгай
«Я был в школе», — сказал Хуан. «На доске большими белыми буквами была написана дата 31 мая 1970 года. Буквы начали танцевать у меня перед глазами. Но снаружи было только несколько пустых машин».
«Ты засыпал?»
«Нет, я выглянул из окна. Там было шумно, как будто по улице ехал большой грузовик. Но снаружи было лишь несколько пустых машин».
«Что создавало шум?»
«Он шел из земли. Машины начали прыгать вверх и вниз. Потом часы в классе упали со стены, а окно разбилось. Я испугался. Я выбежал из школы на улицу. Когда я бежал, дома начали падать. Земля двигалась у меня под ногами. Я знал, что...»
«Что ты знал?»
«Я знал, что это было землетрясение. Я побежал к полям. Я слышал грохот и крики за спиной. Я обернулся, только когда добежал до второго поля. Я не мог поверить своим глазам. Почти все здания были на земле. Впереди меня земля двигалась вверх и вниз, как море».
«Что ты сделал?»
«Сначала ничего. Потом я услышал другой звук, как будто гремели орудия. Он шёл с гор. Я посмотрел вверх, когда ближайшая гора начала лететь на меня! Я побежал и переплыл через реку. На противоположном берегу я снова начал бежать. Сильный ветер нёс меня вперед. Потом земля и снег свалились на меня...»
«Снег?»
«Да, снег с гор. Землетрясение откололо большой кусок горы...»
«Сколько людей погибло?», — спросил Марк.
«50 000 человек погибли и еще 100 000 были ранены. Около миллиона человек потеряли свои дома, т.е. каждый тринадцатый житель Перу. Я думаю, это было самое страшное из когда-либо произошедших землетрясений.»
Марк снова посмотрел в свою записную книжку.
«В 1556 году было землетрясение в Китае. Тогда погибло 830 000 человек. В 1923 году в Японии 142 000 человек погибло в результате землетрясения».

The Yungay Earthquake
"I was in school," said Juan. "On the blackboard, in big white letters was the date — May 31st 1970. The letters started to dance in front of my eyes." "Were you asleep?"
"No, I looked out of the window. There was a noise, like a big lorry in the street. But outside there were only a few empty cars." "What made the noise?" "It was coming from the ground. The cars started to jump up and down. Then the classroom clock fell off the wall and the window broke.
I was afraid. I ran out of school and into the street. As I was running, the houses started to fall down. The ground was moving under my feet. I knew then..." "Knew what?"
"I knew that it wassail earthquake. I ran to the fields. I could hear bangs and screams behind me. 1 only turned round when I got to the second field.
I couldn't believe my eyes. Nearly all buildings were on the ground. In front of me, the earth was moving up and down like a sea."
"What did you do?"
"Nothing for a while. Then I heard another sound, like great guns. It came from the mountains. 1 looked up and the nearest mountain began to fly at me!
I ran away and swam across the river. On the other side, I started to run again. A great wind carried me along. Then earth and snow tell on top of me ..."
"Snow?"
"Yes, mountain snow. The earthquake broke oft'a large piece of the mountain."...
"How many died?" asked Mark.
"50,000 died and another 100,000 people were hurt. Nearly a million lost their homes — that is one out of 13 people in Peru. 1 think it was the worst earthquake ever."
Mark looked in his notebook again.
"There was ao earthquake in China in 1556. It killed 830,000 people. In 1923, in Japan. 142,000 people died."
