Retelling: Breaking News

There is a great deal of different shows, reality-shows, serials, films on TV. But one kind of programs, that tells us all the events first is News. And, I think, people prefer Breaking News more than usual. Let's talk about them.



The first type of Breaking news is nature disasters.
Hurricane Katrina was one of the most severe storms ever to hit the Atlantic coast with a wind speed of more than 270 km per hour. As he strengthened over the Gulf of Mexico, the mayor of New Orleans declared a state of emergency and began evacuating from the city. Residents of the ch of New Orleans had no idea that within days, 80% of their city would be underwater in one of the worst disasters in US history.
The other disaster is earthquake.
In the days before the main earthquake, Japan had еexperienced quite a few foreshocks, some of which exceeded magnitude 7, but nothing could prepare the nation for the main shock, a magnitude 9 quake. It was strong enough to be felt hundreds of kilometer's away in Tokyo  Much worse was yet to come as the authorities issued a tsunami. Опe giant wave reached up to 10 km. Over the next few days, a large number of aftershocks continued to shake Japan, causing plenty of problems for rescue teams as they raced to find survivors. Over 15,000 реоple died that day and thousands moreе were missing.
I'll tell you about one photographer, who makes spectacular shots in volcano.
When a volcano erupts, German engineer Martin Rietze, on the other hand, grabs his camera and tries to get as close as he can and stay alive at the same time! He's so close that he can feel the heat burning his face even through his gas mask. Martin is a freelance photographer whose stunning photographs of volcanic eruptions are in high demand with newspapers and magazines all over the world. The final results though, Martin's shots of volcanic lightning- a phenomenon that still mystifies scientists - are definitely worth it!

The second type of this news is strange weather.
Heavy weather. People who live in in the area where the Catatumbo river meets Lake Maracibo have dark clouds most of the year. Clouds crush into each other and cause a violent lightning that can last up till 10 hours.
Fire from the sky. A fire tornado can happen when the high temperatures mix with the strong winds. They are usually about 300-450 meters height, but they can be bigger.
A watery tale. The rain of fish has been happening every year in Honduras. Locals believe that is is a miracle, but scientist think the fish are from underground rivers.

The other type is historical news.
Yuri Gagarin It was at 10 am on 12th April, 1961 when Radio Moscow interrupted scheduled broadcasting to announce something truly historic and magnificent. "Here is our special news," it stated. The first cosmic spaceship named Vostok 1 with a man on board has orbited around Earth from the Soviet Union. It orbited the Earth once at a speed of 27,000 kilometers per hour for a total duration of 108 minutes. The Soviet Union had beaten the USA in the race to get the first man into space and Yuri Gagarin had become that man.

And the last type of news,I think, is dangerous situations.
Aron had gone climbing alone many times before, only this time, he hadn't told anyone where he was going. Aron carried only a containing a small first aid kit, a knife, a video camera, one litre of water, and a few snacks. Aron had been climbing all day and was about to stop, disaster struck; a 365-kilo boulder moved and trapped his arm against the canyon wall. On the fifth day, Aron reached a decision to do the one thing -the only thing-that could save his life: He administered first aid to cut off his own arm
