earthquake and tsunami

Today we discuss earthquake and tsunami of Japan. The magnitude of this quake is measured 9.0 on the Richter scale.
The earthquake triggered the tsunami, that is, the quake cause the heavily tsunami.
Tsunami looks like a wall of water. It was so terrible because it destroyed everything in its path.
In addition, it left a trail of destruction in its wake.
On Youtube, I saw a lot terrible scenes about mud-spattered (also called mud-caked, mud-splattered, and mud-encrusted)
In Japan, there are lots of collapsed houses.
Collapsed refers to debris which means broken pieces of something or wreckage.
So, how can we do if terrible things happen.
The media have to tell us how to protect ourselves.
Now, we have to prepare a survival kit which includes water, matches or lighter, flashlight, food, and batteries.
We can't live without water for three days. We also have to prepare some instant noodles, towel, clothes, energy bars, canned food, and can opener.
Of course, tissues are crucial for women.
The radio is so important because we can know where the survivals are and where we can get the survival materials.
By the way, plastic tarp can save our lives.
The most important thing is the whistle because we can use it to tell people where we are.
That is, whistle can be used as a distress signal.
Except for survival kit, we must keep a "first aid kit" which is a box full of medical supplies.

Then, it also caused radiation which is escaping from the damaged nuclear reactors.
In Taiwan, we are afraid of that the radiation will come to Taiwan.
The news on TV told us we can buy iodine to protect us.
People fear that there is danger that the nuclear will meltdown.
The fuel rods will melt.
The earthquake caused the explosion, so the radiation we have to notice.
Jason told us that the radiation will make us sick heavily and even get cancer.
If we have cancer, we must take the cancer treatment which you can also call it "chemotherapy".
The patients who take the chemotherapy will have low energy and tiredness, so they usually feel lethargy.
Moreover, they will lose weight because of the low appetite.
On their skin, you can see lots of black and blue and even blisters. It makes me feel pity.
During the cancer treatment, the patients will get nausea which means the feeling of wanting to vomit.
To vomit means to throw up things. I can understand the feeling because I had nausea when I catch a cold.
However, the painful they have is more serious than me.
After this event and the class, I will be concerned with the people I know, especially my parents.
We won't know what will happen to us next moment.
