Almost a hundred thousand people were killed and half a million homes (1) destroyed as a result of an earthquake in Tokyo in 1923. The earthquake began a minute before noon (2) when many people of Tokyo were cooking their midday meals. Thousands of stoves were overturned as soon as the (3) earth began to shake. As a result, small fires broke out everywhere and (4) quickly spread. The fire engines were prevented for going to help as many of the roads had cracked open. It was impossible to use fire fighting equipment (5) because most of the water pipes had burst. Consequently, over ninety percent of the damage was caused by the (6) fire rather than by the collapse of the buildings. Most of those (7) who died were not killed in the earthquake itself but in the fires, which followed. If the earthquake had occurred (8) at night while people were sleeping, far fewer would have died

China said that there was a heavy loss of life in the earthquake which struck Tangshan city yesterday. Survivors said that Tangshan, an industrial city of one million people 160 kilometers east of Peking, was completely destroyed. Observers living in Beijing said it appeared that only a small part of the one million inhabitants escaped death or injury.
Many of the men of Tangshan were working in the mines deep under the earth's surface when the earthquake occurred. Unfortunately, few of these miners have survived. A lot of people were also working in the city's offices. Regrettably, most were killed under falling concrete when the building collapsed. The Chinese authorities have not yet given any information about the actual number of casualties, but it is thought that tens of thousands of people have been killed. Hardly a building has been left standing.
