ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTERS in real life: Oklahoma tornado.

Terrified cildren, hero teachers:

(CNN) -- It was the end of the school day. The kids at Plaza Towers Elementary School were stuffing their backpacks, looking forward to going home, playing with friends, eating snacks. But the tornado warnings changed that. When the twister came barreling in Monday afternoon, terrified young students huddled together in the hallways, screaming as walls and roofs caved in. Chairs and backpacks swirled above them. The winds and blaring sounds enveloped them. Cars from the parking lot landed just inches away. Teachers dove onto groups of kids to protect them from falling debris.(...)

 By the time it was gone, so was the school in Moore, Oklahoma. In its place was a huge pile of rubble, trapping teachers and children. And seven students were dead.(...)

RUBBLE = escombros     

 First responders and volunteers rushed to the scene to begin the treacherous work of searching for survivors. "We had to pull a car off a teacher and she had three little kids underneath her," one first responder, in tears, told KFOR. "Good job, teach." "I was on top of six kids," one sixth grade teacher said, working her way across the rubble. "I was lying on top. All of mine are OK." Teachers helped tear through several feet of rubble to rescue sobbing students, some of them injured. Rescue teams successfully pulled several kids from the leveled school. But with each passing hour, the hope began to fade.(...) The devastation is palpable throughout Moore.

RUSH = darse prisa ...............................................INJURED = herido
TREACHEROUS = traicionero, movedizo..............SOBBING = sollozante
SEARCH = buscar.................................................SUCCESFULLY = con éxito
