The huge earthquake and tsunami were happened in Japan on 3/11. It's extremely horrible!!
Few years ago, the huge earthquake in Taiwan was 7.2-magnitude, and it happened under the land. The earthqake destroyed many houses, roads, farms, mountains and factories etc. It was so horrible in Taiwan, especially it was happened at night. I experienced that such earthquake, so I would understand how scaring it was.
The 9-magnitude in Japan was so awful, and the huge tsunami flooded into the harbors, roads, factories, airports, oil refineries and cities. The earthquake happened at noon, and the tsunami was coming after an hour. The shoking images were broadcast from TV and the internet. The ships were flooded into the roads suddenly and the houses, bridges, trains and roads were detroyed unawares. The ships on the Pacific Ocean were being dragged into a big whirlpool. It really seemed in the hell.
I could not image if it happens in Taiwan, how many people will be survived. The Japanese alarm system was reminding the people before the earthquake, and many people got the messages about the tsunami coming soon. Therefore, the casualties is minimum, but the property. God bless Japanese!!
whirlpool ==> a place in a river or the sea where currents of water spin round very fast
casualties (casualty) ==> a person who is killed or injured in war or in an accident
