In 1989, an earthquake almost flattened (铲平) America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes. In the earthquake, a father left his wife safely at home and rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover (发现) that the building was as flat as a pancake. He was surprised at what he saw, but he suddenly remembered the promise (承诺) he had made to his son: "No matter what happens, I"ll always be there for you!" And tears began to fill his eyes. He began to think of the place where his son"s classroom might be. He rushed there and started digging through the ruins (废墟). As he was digging, other parents tried to pull him off, saying, "It"s too late! They are all dead! You can"t help! Go home! There is nothing you can do!" But he only replied, "Are you going to help me now?" And then he continued to dig for his son, stone by stone. The policemen also tried to pull him off and asked him to go home. But he only replied, "Are you going to help me now?" But everyone was sure it was over. No one helped. He went on alone to see if his son was still alive, 8 hours… 12 hours… 36 hours… then, in 38th hour, he pulled back a big stone and heard his son"s voice. He screamed, "Armand!"
