原本這篇是要延續法蘭克福記事之「美食篇」的，但因為前兩天日本的史上大地震讓我相當震驚和有所感觸，所以在FRA「美食篇」前先來個關於這回日本311大地震的相關英文報導與英語教學。

為了讓格友們可以從此篇概略了解日本311大地震，同時學習到相關的重點字和寫作要領，俺用心看了不少的網上和報上的英文新聞，從中截取不同的摘要同時再將之翻成中文來向大家報告，並重點性地做單字和文法的分析（若還有不懂的請您們留言詢問喔），希望你們也可以和小夫俺一樣有所心得，並為此事件一同虔誠祈禱這傷亡可以減少，未來全球不要再有任何的災難。
小夫感恩
1.Foreign search teams rush to Japan after earthquake
International search and rescue teams rushed to Japan yesterday in the wake of a massive magnitude 8.9 earthquake and crushing tsunami. South Korea sent five rescue workers and two sniffer dogs, while its foreign ministry said 120 relief workers, medical personnel and three military transport planes were on standby if needed. Several Taiwan International Emergency Rescue Team groups were also ready to leave for Japan as officials in Taipei continued to contact their Japanese counterparts to offer assistance for rescue efforts.Taipei Times (on-line)：March 13, 2011
1.國外搜救團隊震後緊急赴日
國際搜救團隊在規模8.9強震和毀滅性的海嘯發生後緊急前往日本。南韓派遣了五位搜救人員和兩隻偵測犬，同時其外交部也表示有120位救難人士、醫療人員、和三架軍用運輸機隨時待命以因應救援工作。正當台北的官員們持續與其它日本救難工作隊進行救援行動溝通的同時，不少『台灣國際緊急救難隊』也隨時準備好赴日參與。台北時報(網上新聞)：2011-03-13
2.Fears of Japan nuclear meltdown rise
The tsunami that followed the 8.9-magnitude earthquake wreaked havoc along a huge stretch of Japan's north-east coast, sweeping far inland and devastating a number of towns and villages. Powerful aftershocks are continuing to hit the region.
Japanese officials have ordered anyone living within 20km (12 miles) of the Fukushima nuclear power plant to evacuate the area. A large explosion and feared meltdown has occurred in one of its buildings and some radiation leakage has been detected. If the Japanese authorities act swiftly, they should be able to minimize the cost to human health. BBC Nwes (on-line)：March 12~13, 2011
2.對日本核外洩之恐懼提升
規模8.9的地震所帶來的海嘯重創日本的東北沿岸地區，大片內陸土地慘遭海嘯吞噬，許多房舍和村莊遭受嚴重的破壞。強大的餘震依然持續侵襲當地。日本官員下令居住在福島核電場外圍 二十公里 （12哩）範圍內的居民必須撤離。其中一座核電廠的廠房發生大爆炸以及恐怖的核子反應爐爐心熔毀，並偵測出一些輻射外洩的情形。如果日本有關當局可盡速處理，便得以將對人類健康造成的影嚮降到最小。BBC新聞 (網上新聞)：2011-03-12~13
