When the ground stops shaking after an earthquake,rescue workers
are quick to arrive.Sirens sound and helicopters hover overhead.
Rescuers search buildings and dig through the rubble.They listen
everywhere for sounds of life.They must work quickly to find
trapped survivors on or buried under the ground.
Earthquakes often destroy roads.Helicopters provide the only
means of carrying injured survivors to hospital.
Rescuers have a difficult and dangerous job.Cut power lines can
cause fires and broken gas pipes can release deadly fumes.The
mixture of gas and fires often causes sudden explosions.
