A 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit the east coast of Japan on March 11th. The quake was the fifth largest in the world since 1900 and nearly 8,000 times    51    than the one which hit Christchurch (克赖斯特彻奇，新西兰东部城市), New Zealand, last month.

The epicenter(震中) of the earthquake was in the Pacific Ocean, 130 kilometers east of Sendai (仙台，日本东北地区中心城市). The quake was so powerful and    52    the coast that it caused strong tsunamis in northern Japan. Cars, ships and buildings were swept away by    53  

of water. About 2,414 people have been reported    54    and about 20,000 missing. The Japanese government said that the final number of deaths will be    55    higher.

　　Though most parts of the country have not been damaged by the quake, people in many cities are suffering from power cuts    56    four nuclear power plants (核电站) near the earthquake area have been shut down. In the centre of Tokyo, a number of office workers are spending the night in their offices because the lifts have stopped    57   . Millions of people have to stay in the Japanese capital because train services were stopped.

Although there is terrible quake damage and a possible massive nuclear leak (核泄漏), most of the Japanese people in the quake-hit areas remain    58    and cool --- they queue up(排队) for food and water in order and expect their lives to get back on track soon.

　　The following rales will be used for the Reading Club:

　　1.All books must be read from page one to the last page.

　　2.The parent or the teacher will initial (write the first letter of one's name) the booklist after a student has finished reading a book. Teachers will initial the booklist only for the books read at school, and books read outside school must be initialed by the parent. And it is the duty of the parent to write the number of pages of each of the books that have been read by the child on the booklist.

　　3.All books read must be of the student's reading level or above. For example, a third grade student should not read first grade books if he or she is able to read at a third grade or higher reading level.

　　4. All the books the student finishes during the school year (including the textbooks read at school) will be counted towards the 100 books. Comic books and the like will not be counted. Books of good quality(质量）read from the school library, public library, classroom, home, etc. will be counted—including story books.

　　5.When a student has finished a club booklist—one sheet(一份）of 25 books or 1,500 pages，he or she should bring the sheet to the office. The child will get a small reward(奖励） and may get another piece of booklist to go on reading. It takes four booklist sheets for 100 books or for 1,500 pages to reach 6,000 pages. Either way — You are a winner!
