Tangshan: The Deadliest Earthquake
From Jennifer Rosenberg
At 3:42 a.m. on July 28, 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake hit the sleeping city of Tangshan, in northeastern China. The very large earthquake, striking an area where it was totally unexpected, obliterated the city of Tangshan and killed over 240,000 people - making it the deadliest earthquake of the twentieth century.
Fireballs and Animals Give Warning
Though scientific earthquake prediction is in its nascent stages, nature often gives some advance warning of an impending earthquake.
In a village outside of Tangshan, well water reportedly rose and fell three times the day before the earthquake. In another village, gas began to spout out the water well on July 12 and then increased on July 25th and 26th. Other wells throughout the area showed signs of cracking.
Animals also gave a warning that something was about to happen. One thousand chickens in Baiguantuan refused to eat and ran around excitedly chirping. Mice and yellow weasels were seen running around looking for a place to hide. In one household in the city of Tangshan, a goldfish began jumping wildly in its bowl. At 2 a.m. on July 28, shortly before the earthquake struck, the goldfish jumped out of its bowl. Once its owner had returned him to his bowl, the goldfish continued to jump out of its bowl until the earthquake hit.
Strange? Indeed. These were isolated incidents, spread across a city of a million people and a countryside scattered with villages. But nature gave additional warnings.
The night preceding the earthquake, July 27-28, many people reported seeing strange lights as well as loud sounds. The lights were seen in a multitude of hues. Some people saw flashes of light; others witnessed fireballs flying across the sky. Loud, roaring noises followed the lights and fireballs. Workers at the Tangshan airport described the noises as louder than that of an airplane.
The Earthquake Strikes
When the 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Tangshan at 3:42 a.m. on July 28, over a million people lay sleeping, unaware of the disaster that was to befall them. As the earth began to shake, a few people who were awake had the forethought to dive under a table or other heavy piece of furniture, but most were asleep and did not have time. The entire earthquake lasted approximately 14 to 16 seconds.
Once the quake was over, the people who could, scrambled out into the open, only to see the entire city levelled. After an initial period of shock, the survivors began to dig through debris to answer the muffled calls for help as well as find loved ones still under rubble. As injured people were saved from under the rubble, they were lain on the side of the road. Many of the medical personnel were also trapped under debris or killed by the earthquake. The medical centers were destroyed as well as the roads to get there.
Survivors were faced with no water, no food, and no electricity.
All but one of the roads into Tangshan was undrivable. Unfortunately, relief workers accidentally clogged the one remaining road, leaving them and their supplies stuck for hours in the traffic jam.
People needed help immediately; survivors could not wait for help to arrive. Survivors formed groups to dig for others. They set up medical areas where emergency proceres were concted with the minimum of supplies. They searched for food and set up temporary shelters.
Though 80 percent of the people trapped under rubble were saved, a 7.1 magnitude aftershock that hit in the afternoon of July 28 sealed the fate for many who had been waiting under the rubble for help.
After the earthquake hit, 242,419 people lay dead or dying, along with another 164,581 people who were severely injured. In 7,218 households, all members of the family were killed by the earthquake.
Corpses were buried quickly, usually close to the residences in which they perished. This later caused health problems, especially after it rained and the bodies were again exposed. Workers had to find these impromptu graves, dig up the bodies, and then move and rebury the corpses outside of the city.
Damage and Recovery
Before the 1976 earthquake, scientists didn't think Tangshan was susceptible to a large earthquake; thus, the area was zoned an intensity level of VI on the Chinese intensity scale (similar to the Mercalli scale). The 7.8 earthquake that hit Tangshan was given an intensity level of XI (out of XII). The buildings in Tangshan were not built to withstand such a large earthquake.
Ninety-three percent of residential buildings and 78 percent of instrial buildings were completely destroyed. Eighty percent of the water pumping stations were seriously damaged and the water pipes were damaged throughout the city. Fourteen percent of the sewage pipes were severely damaged.
The foundations of bridges gave way, causing the bridges to collapse.
Railroad lines bent. Roads were covered with debris as well as riddled with fissures.
With so much damage, recovery was not easy. Food was a high priority. Some food was parachuted in, but the distribution was uneven. Water, even just for drinking, was extremely scarce. Many people drank out of pools or other locations that had become contaminated ring the earthquake. Relief workers eventually got water trucks and others to transport clean drinking water into the affected areas.
After the emergency care was given, the rebuilding of Tangshan began almost immediately. Though it took time, the entire city was rebuilt and is again home to over a million people, earning Tangshan the name "Brave City of China."

供参考。
To call “Aftershock” a melodrama doesn’t really do it justice. Shortly after Feng Xiaogang’s film begins, a woman whose husband has just died in the devastating 1976 Tangshan earthquake looks up and screams: “God! You bastard!” And things go downhill from there. Before you know it, she has a Sophie’s choice to make involving her two trapped children and a concrete slab.
如果将《唐山大地震》称作剧情片,那么多少有点不公。在这部冯氏电影开场后不久,发生于1976年唐山的毁灭性地震便夺去了一个丈夫的生命,而她的女人只能仰望天空凄厉地嚎叫“老天爷!王八蛋!”自此她便陷入了更大的泥沼:很快她便面临着苏菲般的抉择,不得不从两个被一块混凝土板困住的孩子中选择一个。
These scenes, including a highly effective rendering of the earthquake, which killed an estimated 240,000 people, are dispatched quickly. But the pain is just beginning. Still to come are an adoption, an unexpected pregnancy, terminal illness, two amputations, three emotional reunions, four abandonments and more than 30 years of exquisite suffering, guilt and resentment, until a redemptive finale brought about by — it’s almost too good to be true — the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.
以上这些场景和一个效果震撼的地震过程(这场地震据估计造成24万人死亡)很快便结束了。然而,这仅仅是苦痛和创伤的开始。之后还会发生诸多的事件:一次收养,一次意外怀孕,疾病晚期,两次截肢,三次感人的重逢,四次遗弃,超过三十年的细入发梢的苦痛,愧疚与怨恨,直到一个救赎式的终曲——而这简直是再恰当不过的——2008年的四川大地震。
The surprise is that while you’re aware that “Aftershock” is extracting tears with a sledgehammer, it doesn’t necessarily feel like abuse; it’s easy to let yourself go along with it. A lot of Chinese moviegoers did: “Aftershock” (the original title translates as “The Tangshan Earthquake”) is the highest-grossing domestic film in China’s history, its $100 million take since its release in July ranking it ahead of “The Founding of a Republic,” though still behind “Avatar.”
尽管所有人都会知道《唐山大地震》显然是一部催泪弹,但令人意外的是这部影片并不那么滥情;你可以很轻松地放任自己的情绪跟着片中的人物飘摇。事实上很多中国电影观众也的确这样做了:于是《唐山大地震》(英文译名原为The Tangshan Earthquake,后改为Aftershock)成为了中国历史上最卖座的本土电影,自七月份上映以来其累积票房收入达1亿美元,稳稳领先于《建国大业》,不过仍然落后于《阿凡达》。
Mr. Feng, director of the romantic caper “A World Without Thieves” and the romantic comedy “If You Are the One” (No. 3 in that box office ranking), has been called the Spielberg of China. In “Aftershock” the comparison makes sense in terms beyond commercial success. He somehow manages to mitigate the worst excesses of Su Xiaowei’s script. The film may be a blunt instrument , but it’s rarely maudlin — the exception being the performance of Mr. Feng’s wife, Fan Xu, as the long-suffering mother -and is, on occasion, quite moving. (Western viewers will still find some of the notions about family guilt to be over the top , but then they’re not accustomed to presumptive filial piety and a one-child policy.)
冯小刚曾执导过黑色喜剧《天下无贼》以及爱情喜剧《非诚勿扰》(官方票房排名第三位),被称为中国的斯皮尔伯格。而《唐山大地震》这样一部沉重的影片除了商业成功外,其与冯小刚以往作品的风格对比也十分强烈。冯小刚多少成功把握住了苏小卫过于冗长的剧本。这部电影或许有些过于直白,但绝不仅仅只有泪点——除了剧中那位饱受各种折磨的母亲(由冯小刚的妻子徐帆扮演),有时也颇为令人感动。(西方观影人仍然会感到有些关于家庭的罪恶感被过分夸大了,但这很多时候也是基于文化障碍——他们并不了解传统东方文化中隐含的孝道以及独生子女政策。)

The Tangshan earthquake, also known as the Great Tangshan earthquake or GTE[1], was a natural disaster that occurred on July 28, 1976. It is believed to be the largest earthquake of the 20th century by death toll.[2] The epicentre of the earthquake was near Tangshan in Hebei, People's Republic of China, an instrial city with approximately one million inhabitants. The number of deaths initially reported by the Chinese government was 655,000, but has since stated the number to be around 240,000 to 255,000.[2] A further 164,000 people were recorded as being severely injured.[3] The earthquake came in between a series of political events involving the Communist Party of China. It shook China both literally and figuratively in 1976, which was later labeled a "Year of curse".
The earthquake hit in the early morning, at 03:42:53.8 local time (1976 July 27 19:42:53.8 UTC), and lasted for around 10 seconds.[4] Chinese Government's official sources state 7.8 on the Richter magnitude scale[3], though some sources listed it as high as 8.2.
