不管发生什么,我永远都会在你的身边!
1994年,一次8.2级的地震几乎铲平美国洛杉矶,在短短不到4分钟的时间里,夺去了30万多人的生命啊!
在彻底的破坏与混乱之中,有位父亲将他的妻子在家里安顿好之后,跑到他儿子就读的学校,而触目所见,却是被夷为平地的校园。
看到这令人伤心的一幕,他想起了曾经对儿子所作的承诺:"不论发生什么事,我都会在你身边。"至此,父亲热泪满眶。目睹曾经的学校成为了一堆瓦砾,真叫人绝望。但父亲的脑中仍然牢记着他对儿子说的诺言。
他开始努力回忆每天早上送儿子上学的必经之路,终于记起儿子的教室应该就在那幢建筑物后面,位于右边的角落里,他跑到那儿,开始在碎石砾中挖掘,搜寻儿子的下落。
当这位父亲正在挖掘时,其他束手无策的学生家长赶到现场,揪心地叫着:"我的儿子呀!" "我的女儿呀!"一些好意的家长试图把这位父亲劝离现场,告诉他"一切都太迟了!"他们全死了!"这样做没用的","回去吧,这样做只会使事情更糟"。面对种种劝告,这位父亲的回答只有一句话:"你们愿意帮我吗?"然后继续进行挖掘工作,在废墟中寻找他的儿子。
消防队长出现了,他也试图把这位父亲劝走,对他说:"火灾频频出现,四处都在发生爆炸,你在这里太危险了,这边的事我们会处理,你回家吧!"对此,这位慈爱、关切儿子的父亲仍然回答:"你们要帮我吗?"
警察赶到现场,对他说:"我知道,你现在很着急,但是你这样未必能找到你的孩子。回家吧!我们会处理一切的。"这位父亲依旧回答:"你们愿意帮我吗?" 然而,人们无动于衷。
为了弄清楚儿子是死是活,这位父亲独自一人鼓起勇气,继续进行他的工作。
他挖掘了8小时,--12小时,24小时,36小时--38小时后,父亲推开了一块巨大的石头,听到了儿子的声音。父亲尖叫着:"阿曼达!"儿子的回音听到了:"爸爸吗?是我,爸,我告诉其他的小朋友不要着急。我告诉他们如果你活着,你会来救我的。如果我获救了,他们也就获救了。你答应过我, 不论发生什么,我永远都会在你的身边, 你做到了,爸!"
"你那里的情况怎样?有几个人活着?"父亲问。
"我们有14个活着。爸,我们好害怕,又渴又饿,谢天谢地,你在这儿。教室倒塌时,刚好形成一个三角形的洞,救了我们。"
"快出来吧!儿子!"
"不,爸,让我的同学先出来吧!因为我知道你会在和我在一起的!不管发生什么事,我知道你永远都会来到我的身边!"
英文
No matter what happens, I ll always be there for you!--
In 1994 an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes. In the midst of utter devastation and chaos, a father left his wife safely at home and rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover that the building was as flat as a pancake.
After the unforgettably initial shock, he remembered the promise he had made to his son: "No matter what, I ll always be there for you!" And tears began to fill his eyes. As he looked at the pile of ruins that once was the school, it looked hopeless, but he kept remembering his commitment to his son.
He began to direct his attention towards where he walked his son to class at school each morning. Remembering his son s classroom would be in the back right corner of the building, he rushed there and started digging through the ruins.
As he was digging, other helpless parents arrived, clutching their hearts, saying: "My son!" "My daughter!" Other well meaning parents tried to pull him off what was left of the school, saying: "It s too late! They re all dead! You can t help!
Go home! Come on, face reality, there s nothing you can do!"
To each parent he responded with one line: "Are you going to help me now?" And then he continued to dig for his son, stone by stone. The fire chief showed up and tried to pull him off the school s ruins saying, "Fires are breaking out, explosions are happening everywhere. You re in danger. We ll take care of it. Go home." To which this loving, caring American father asked, "Are you going to help me now?"
The police came and said, "You re angry, anxious and it s over. You re endangering others. Go home. We ll handle it!" To which he replied, "Are you going to help me now?" No one helped.
Courageously he went on alone because he needed to know for himself: "Is my boy alive or is he dead?" He dug for eight hours...12 hours...24 hours...36 hours...then, in the 38th hour, he pulled back a large stone and heard his son s voice. He screamed his son s name, "ARMAND!" He heard back, "Dad!?! It s me, Dad! I told the other kids not to worry. I told em that if you were alive, you d save me and when you saved me, they d be saved. You promised, No matter what happens, I ll always be there for you! You did it, Dad!" "What s going on in there? How is it?" the father asked.
"There are 14 of us left out of 33, Dad. We re scared, hungry, thirsty and thankful you re here. When the building collapsed, it made a triangle, and it saved us."
"Come out, boy!"
"No, Dad! Let the other kids out first, cause I know you ll get me! No matter what happens, I know you ll always be there for me!"
主要内容地震中的父与子;这篇课文,它讲的是1994年美国洛杉矶发生地震后,一位年轻的父亲与他儿子的故事。父亲跑到儿子上学的学校,看到一片废墟的学校时,仍要救自己的孩子。而别的孩子的父母来到这都悲观失望的走了,路过的人见到他在废墟中不停的挖,都以为他疯了,所以没有帮助他,最后经过他坚持不懈的挖,38小时后,终于救出了儿子。这使我懂了一个道理:“父亲对儿子的爱也是一种伟大而无私的爱,可以战胜一切。”
中心思想爱,会使人坚定和勇敢;爱,会使人产生信赖和力量
思路结构第1段(1-11节):在地震后,父亲努力地寻找儿子。
第2段(12-18节):父亲终于发现了儿子。
第3段(19-24节):父子终于相聚。
片段飘沉香(1)“在混乱中,一位年轻的父亲安顿好受伤的妻子,冲向他7岁的儿子的学校。
(父亲关爱孩子,担心孩子会有危险了。冲”字,这个动作体现了这位父亲急切的心情,他迫切地希望孩子能够平安。)
(2)当看到教学楼已成为一片废墟时“他顿时感到眼前一片漆黑,大喊:“阿曼达,我的儿子。”
(父亲见到废墟以为儿子已经死了,他感到极度痛心,体现了他失去儿子的悲痛心情)
(3)“跪在地上大哭了一阵后,他猛地想起自己常对儿子说的一句话:“不论发生什么,我总会跟你在一起!他坚定地站起身,向那片废墟走去。”
(父亲看到了希望,他相信儿子会记住他的话,有一个坚定的信念支持着他,所以他──坚定地站起身)
(4)“他挖了8小时,12小时,24小时,36小时,没人再来阻挡他。他满脸灰尘,双眼布满血丝,衣服破烂不堪,到处都是血迹。”
(父亲坚信儿子没有死,奋力拯救儿子,顾不得休息,可见这父亲对儿子爱的伟大,有些父母看到废墟痛苦后绝望地走了,这形成了鲜明的对比。而这位父亲不理他人的劝阻,只有一个信念──儿子在等他,而且这位父亲见人就问你是不是来帮我的?可见父亲对儿子深深的爱。他一直坚信儿子仍然活着)
(5)儿子看到爸爸来救他,自信地告诉爸爸,他曾经对同学说的话:“只要我爸爸活着……,他总会和我们在一起。”
(儿子对父亲的信任,他坚信父亲会来救他。即使在最危险,最艰险的时刻,儿子对爸爸的的信念都没有动摇。)
(6)"不,爸,让我的同学先出来吧!因为我知道你会在和我在一起的!不管发生什么事,我知道你永远都会来到我的身边!"
(儿子还是个舍己为人的人,在父亲救他的时候,他让同学们先出去,要父亲先救他人,而这又是那朴实但又强有力的话语。)
