通过汶川地震对我国应急救援工作的几点思考
第11卷第1期 防 灾 科 技 学 院 学 报 V ol.11 No.1 2009年3月 J.of Institute of Disaster-Prevention Science and Technology Mar. 2009 收稿日期：2009-01-30 作者简介：何 宁（1978–），男，博士，工程师，主要从事灭火救援组织指挥和执勤训练管理方面的工作。 通过汶川地震对我国应急救援工作的几点思考 何 宁 （公安部消防局，北京 100054） 摘 要：本文基于5?12汶川地震抗震救灾的亲身经历，对该次应急救援工作进行了深入的分析，并从指挥机构、应急预案、联动机制和队伍建设等方面进一步加强我国应急救援工作提出了几点建议。 关键词：汶川地震；薄弱环节；应急救援 中图分类号：X43 文献标识码：B 文章编号：1673-8047(2009) 01-0069-04 前言 汶川大地震是新中国成立以来破坏性最强、波 及范围最广、救灾难度最大的地震灾害。地震发生后，公安消防部队坚决贯彻落实党中央、国务院和公安部党委的部署，迅速从全国调集13 434名消防特勤官兵，全力投身到抗震救灾中。参战消防官兵共从建筑废墟中搜救深埋人员8 100人，其中生还1 701人，解救被困群众51 730人，医疗救助13 109人[1]。公安消防部队坚持生命至上，实施科学救援，以不到救援力量总数8%的比例，搜救出26%的生还者（在人员搜救阶段，军警各方投入救援力量达16万余人，截至2008年5月30日，共搜救生还者6 541人），成为救援生还率最高的专业队伍，受到了各级政府的高度评价，赢得了人民群众的广泛赞誉。这场历史罕见的大地震，是对我国政府履行社会管理和公共服务职能，尤其是应急管理能力的一大考验。我们经受住了这场考验，国家领导人的亲历亲为、广大人民的万众一心和公安干警、消防官兵、解放军、医护人员的忘我牺牲精神，尤为值得赞扬。但是，通过这次地震，也暴露出我国应急救援工作方面存在一些薄弱环节和现实问题。对此，笔者结合自己亲身经历和切实感受，对汶川地震应急救援工作进行分析和总结，并就如何进一步加强我国应急救援工作提出粗浅看法，以期抛砖引玉。 1 抗震救灾中暴露的薄弱环节 1.1 国家层面缺少应急管理的实体指挥机构 在这次特大地震救援中，解放军、武警部队、 消防官兵、公安民警、医护人员以及其他多种救援 力量首次联合作战，规模大、警种多，对统一协调和调度指挥带来一定困难。目前，我国尚未建立应急管理的职能部门对突发公共事件实行统一管理和调度指挥，而是沿用传统的“分条块、分部门、分灾种”的做法，将突发公共事件的调度指挥交由相应的职能部门承担。 我国政府层面负责应急管理的主要常设机构是“协助国务院领导处置特别重大突发公共事件”的国务院应急管理办公室（简称“应急办”），在这次抗震救灾中，接受了前所未有的挑战和考验，但应急办因没有隶属的救援队伍，不具备应急管理的统辖指挥权，不能指挥、调度分散于多个部门的救援力量，难以发挥出有效的组织指挥和行政权威。而国务院临时成立的“国务院抗震救灾指挥部”，虽然能够领导、指挥和协调地震应急救援工作。但属于临设机构，并非常设，仅在地震发生后才被启动，无法有效组织不同部门、不同救援力量之间开展危机前的预防、演练、准备等工作。应急管理日常工作和应急救援实战需求严重脱节。 由于没有建立应急管理的实体指挥机构，应急管理主体不明确，组织指挥机构不健全，难以指挥、调度彼此独立、互不隶属、分散于多个部门的救援力量，难以适应重大灾害事故的统一指挥、高效处置的需要。 1.2 国家应急预案建设尚需完善 地震发生后，国家启动了地震应急预案及其相应的运行机制，在国务院抗震救灾指挥部统一领导下，军、警、地等相关部门和专业力量迅速实施抗
地震简介英文演示教学
An earthquake (also known as a quake) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. The seismicity, seismism or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time. 地震（也称为地震，地震或地震）是一个突然释放的能量在地球的地壳地震波产生的结果。地震活动，地震或地震活动面积是指频率，类型和在一段时间内经历了地震的大小。 There are three main types of fault, all of which may cause an interplate earthquake: normal, reverse (thrust) and strike-slip. Normal and reverse faulting are examples of dip-slip, where the displacement along the fault is in the direction of dip and movement on them involves a vertical component. Normal faults occur mainly in areas where the crust is being extended such as a divergent boundary. Reverse faults occur in areas where the crust is being shortened such as at a convergent boundary. Strike-slip faults are steep structures where the two sides of the fault slip horizontally past each other; transform boundaries are a particular type of strike-slip fault. Many earthquakes are caused by movement on faults that have components of both dip-slip and strike-slip; this is known as oblique slip. 有故障的三种主要类型，所有这些都可能导致板内地震：正常，反（逆）

It was not immediately clear if there were any casualties or damage from the tremor which the the US Geological Survey (UGS) earlier put at 7.8. The epicentre of the quake was 93 kilometres north of Chengdu. Wenchuan, which took full force of the quake, has a population of 111,000 people. It is in an ethnic Tibetan area in Aba county which recently saw violent clashes between Tibetans and Chinese authorities.

英语作文 日本地震
All of those broken bones in northern Japan, all of those broken lives and those broken homes prompt us to remember what in calmer times we are invariably minded to forget: the most stern and chilling of mantras, which holds, quite simply, that mankind inhabits this earth subject to geological consent—which can be withdrawn at any time. For hundreds, maybe for thousands of people, this consent was withdrawn with shocking suddenness—all geological events are sudden, and all are unexpected if not necessarily entirely unanticipated—at 2:46 on this past clear, cool spring Friday afternoon. One moment all were going about their quotidian business—in offices, on trains, in rice fields, in stores, in schools, in warehouses, in shrines—and then the ground began to shake. At first, the shock was merely a much stronger and longer version of the temblors to which most Japanese are well accustomed. There came a stunned silence, as there always does. But then, the difference: a few minutes later a low rumble from the east, and in a horrifying replay of the Indian Ocean tragedy of just some six years before, the imagery of which is still hauntingly in all the world’s mind, the coastal waters off the northern Honshu vanished, sucked mysteriously out to sea. The rumbling continued, people then began to spy a ragged white line on the horizon, and, with unimaginable ferocity, the line became visible as a wall of waves sweeping back inshore at immense speed and at great height. Just seconds later and these Pacific Ocean waters hit the Japanese seawalls, surmounted them with careless ease, and began to claw across the land beyond in what would become a dispassionate and detached orgy of utter destruction. We all now know, and have for 50 years, that geography is the ultimate reason behind the disaster. Japan is at the junction of a web of tectonic-plate boundaries that make it more peculiarly vulnerable to ground-shaking episodes than almost anywhere else—and it is a measure of Japanese engineering ingenuity, of social cohesion, of the ready acceptance of authority and the imposition of necessary discipline that allows so many to survive these all-too-frequent displays of tectonic power. But geography is not the only factor in this particular and acutely dreadful event. Topography played an especially tragic role in the story, too—for it is an axiom known to all those who dwell by high-tsunami-risk coastlines that when the sea sucks back, you run: you run inland and, if at all possible, you run uphill. But in this corner of northeast Japan, with its wide plains of rice meadows and ideal factory sites and conveniently flat airport locations, there may well be a great deal of inland—but there is almost no uphill. Such mountains as exist are far away, blue and distant in the west. All here is coastal plain. And so the reality is this: if a monstrous wave is chasing you inland at the speed of a jetliner, and if the flat topography all around denies you any chance of sprinting to a hilltop to try to escape its wrath, then you can make no mistake—it will catch you, it will drown you, and its forces will pulverize you out of all recognition as a thing of utter insignificance, which of course, to a tsunami, all men and women and their creations necessarily must be. 所有这些骨折在日本北部,所有这些破碎的生活和那些破碎的家庭促使我们希望记住在平静
