她的舍友们都叫她“懒猪”，因为她总是在上课前睡过头。但是宋玉环（音译）赖床的习惯却救了她的命，其它女孩冲出宿舍的时候被倒塌的一堵墙压在下面。这场地震把他们的城镇夷为平地，已经夺取了1484条生命。
星期三清晨发生的地震把宋困在一个狭小的空间里，她的一条腿和一支手臂被压在三楼房间的一堵墙下面。但是她并没有惊慌失措，其它人在身边尖叫时，她异常地冷静。
她喊到：“别叫了，我会先出去，然后回来救你们。”几分钟之后的一次余震让她脱离了困境。
但最终，她的7个同学中有3人已经遇难，还有一人没有找到。官方表示，这所少数民族职业学校的40多名学生已经遇难，在这个中国西部藏族的偏远小镇里，至少有103名学生死亡。
受灾难所感动，流亡的达赖喇嘛在星期六说，他将回到地震现场，尽管他在1959年因反抗中国人的统治失败而离开西藏之后从未回到过中国。
这位西藏的精神领袖说：“为了满足那里人们的愿望，我迫切希望亲自回到那里，安慰受灾的人们。”中国尚未对此做出评论，但是鉴于其长期以来一直在批判达赖喇嘛煽动西藏地区的独立立场，中国显然不愿意批准他的造访。
星期六，喇嘛们戴着口罩把遇难者的尸体堆在一起火葬。出于安全的考虑，他们不得不放弃传统的天葬仪式——让秃鹫啄食死者的尸体。
喇嘛们在为死者超度和祈祷时，数百名村名在山坡上观看这个仪式。
当地的生活稍微显露出一些恢复常态的迹象，居民们蜂拥到路边临时商店购买食品。
18岁的宋两腮通红，她依然站在倒塌宿舍的旁边，看着救援队在成堆扭曲的水泥板上挖掘。她还穿着地震发生时身上的运动裤和印有“Pittsburgh”字样的运动衫，脚上是两只不配对的鞋。
死者中有她最好的朋友，地震时，她在向外跑的时候刚刚把给宋的一杯饮料放在窗台上，随后就被倒塌的门框压倒。宋还认识其他的遇难者。班里的帅哥，一个经常在上课时梳理头发的男孩，在骑摩托车来上学时被一堵墙压倒。
大约还有5名学生依然被埋在废墟里。
宋说：“如果建筑公司的老板在这里，我会问他，你的女儿如果在这里上学，你会使用劣质的建筑材料吗？”她的声音颤抖，眼泪在眼眶里打转。她看着一半倒塌的女生宿舍说：“为什么这边没事，那一边却倒了？”
校园里的大部分建筑物依然矗立，但都受到不同程度的损坏，包括学校的食堂。星期三早晨地震发生时，这所学校1800名学生中的大部分都在那里。
当地教育局的副局长担真才人说：“食堂没有倒塌，如果倒了的话问题就严重了。死亡人数会比现在高很多。”
据青海省政府新闻网站报道，地震摧毁了结古镇三分之一以上的学校建筑物，其它未倒塌的房屋也存在危险。684名学生和教师受伤，73人被埋或者失踪。
校舍的倒塌在中国仍然是个敏感的话题。2008年的地震让数千名正在上课的学生遇害，当时的建筑质量和安全标准被证明全部是低劣的。但是，星期三的地震对校舍和其它建筑物的损坏程度基本相似。
截至到星期六晚上，失踪人数共有312人。官方报道有12088人受伤，其中1394人伤势严重。
政府控制的新华社报道，在星期六，第一个临时学校开始复课，60名小学和中学学生在上课前唱国歌。更多的课程将在星期天恢复。
城镇里，在废墟中露宿多日的居民一直靠清水和速食面度日，他们急于把蔬菜装进塑料袋中。一名妇女在街边出售鸡蛋和罐装饮料，她是第一个从镇外获得商品的小贩。
官方消息称，把救援物资运送到距省会12小时车程的受灾地区依然存在困难。截至到星期六上午，只有22架运送救援物资的飞机降落在玉树的小机场。交通部副部长高宏峰对北京的记者说，未来几天有可能会下雨或下雪，让救援变得更加困难。
救援人员说，救援物资的分配情况比地震刚发生时要好一些。刚开始的时候，绝望的居民互相抢夺有限的物品。
Snowland服务集团的社区开发项目主任Pierre Deve气喘吁吁地说：“我不能再讲了，我们的几辆卡车马上就要到了。”
救援工作的重点正在发生变化。一名部队救援战士陈镇远（音译）说：“过去的两天我们主要是救人，营救被困人员和挖掘尸体。现在，我们在尽量帮助人们找到他们的财物。”
宋，这位因睡懒觉而幸免遇难的学生，依然希望能找到她地震时抱在怀里的玩具熊。
但是她也已经开始想象自己的未来。
她说：“经历了这次地震，我长大了很多，我埋藏了自己的眼泪，转化成前进的动力。学校恢复上课之后，我要努力学习，将来成为一名医生，这样我就真正可以帮助别人了。”
原文：
Her roommates used to call her a "lazy pig" for trying to sleep in before class. But Song Yuhuan's slowness to get out of bed saved her life -- the girls who rushed from their dorm were crushed by the walls collapsing in an earthquake that leveled their town and left 1,484 dead.
Song was trapped briefly by Wednesday morning's quake, a leg and arm pinned under a wall of the third-floor room. Instead of panicking, she felt a steely calm as the others around her screamed.
"Stop screaming," she told them, "and I'll get out first and then I'll help you." An aftershock a few minutes later allowed her to slip free.
But three of her seven roommates died, and a fourth was still missing. Officials say more than 40 of her classmates at the Minorities Vocational School died, and at least 103 students in this remote Tibetan corner of western China were killed.
Moved by the disaster, the exiled Dalai Lama said Saturday he'd like to visit the site, though he has never returned to China since he fled Tibet in 1959 after a failed uprising against Chinese rule.
"To fulfill the wishes of many of the people there, I am eager to go there myself to offer them comfort," the Tibetan spiritual leader said. China hasn't commented but is unlikely to allow a visit after long accusing the Dalai Lama of fomenting separatism in Tibetan areas.
On Saturday, monks in face masks set ablaze piles of blanket-wrapped bodies in a mass cremation, as necessity forced them to break with the tradition of sky burials -- leaving their dead out for vultures.
Hundreds of villagers sat watching on the hillside, while monks chanted and prayed for the dead.
Life also showed the first small signs of returning to normal, with residents crowding to buy food from makeshift sidewalk stores.
The ruddy-cheeked, 18-year-old Song continued to stand and watch as a rescue squad dug at the mangled pile of concrete that used to be her dorm. She was still wearing the tracksuit and purple sweat shirt with the word "Pittsburgh" she had on when the quake hit, and a pair of mismatched shoes.
Among the dead was her best friend, who had just put a drink for Song on their windowsill before running out when the shaking started and being crushed by the door frame. Song knew other victims. The class hunk, known for checking out his hair during class, was crushed by a wall as he rode his motorcycle to school.
Up to five students were thought to still be somewhere under the collapsed buildings.
"If the boss of the construction company were here, I would ask him, if his daughter was here, would he have used shoddy materials?" Song asked, her voice wavering and tears welling in her eyes. She looked at the half-flattened girls' dorm. "Why is this side still standing and this side flat?"
Most of the buildings on the campus were still standing, if damaged, including the cafeteria, where most of the school's 1,800 students were when the quake hit Wednesday morning.
"The cafeteria didn't collapse. If it had, it would have been much worse. The death toll would be much higher," said Danzhen Cairen, deputy chief of the local education bureau.
The quake destroyed more than a third of the school buildings in Jiegu and rendered the rest dangerous, according to a statement on the Qinghai provincial government's news Web site. It said 684 students and teachers were wounded and another 73 were either buried in rubble or missing.
Shattered schools remain a sensitive issue in China, where a devastating 2008 quake killed thousands of students during class, and the buildings and code enforcement were found to be inferior. But Wednesday's quake flattened schools and other buildings alike.
Overall, 312 people were still missing as of Saturday evening. Officials said another 12,088 were injured, including 1,394 seriously.
On Saturday, the first makeshift school started classes again, with 60 elementary and middle school students singing the national anthem, the state-run Xinhua News Agency reported. More classes were expected to resume Sunday.
In town, residents who had camped outdoors amid the debris and lived for days on water and instant noodles eagerly stuffed vegetables into plastic bags as a woman sold eggs and cans of soft drinks on the sidewalk, one of the first vendors to receive goods from out of town.
Officials said getting aid to the region, a 12-hour drive from the provincial capital, remained a problem. Only 22 planes of supplies had landed at Yushu's small airport as of early Saturday morning. Vice Transport Minister Gao Hongfeng told reporters in Beijing that it may rain and snow in the next few days, complicating efforts.
Aid workers said the distribution of aid was better than just after the quake, when desperate residents fought for limited supplies.
"I can't talk now, several of our trucks are arriving," said a breathless Pierre Deve, program director at a community development organization, the Snowland Service Group.
Rescue work was shifting. "The past two days were focused on rescuing people, saving those trapped and digging out bodies. Now, we're trying to help people recover their valuables," said Chen Zhenyun, a member of a military rescue team.
Song, the student who survived by sleeping in, still hopes to find the large teddy bear she was hugging when the earthquake began.
But even she was starting to look toward the future.
"I grew up a lot with this earthquake. I buried my tears and turned them into motivation," she said. "When school starts again, I'm going to study hard and be a doctor. Then I can really help people."

那说明什么? 倒的一边用劣质材料，没倒的一边用的是优质材料?什么逻辑!!!! 本帖最后由 红色的血 于 2010-4-18 23:29 编辑
达赖的要求去玉树其实是一个政治算盘也算抛出一个难题给政府，当然有人看到会不屑，但是事实就是如此。毫无疑问救灾会凝聚藏族的国家向心力，但是达赖的一个声明就可以转移掉了，把视线重新转移到不允许其入境的事情上，同时也变相展示了其号召力和影响力的手法，看看谁做主？我想会有另一种安排就是让班禅去，这样既没有政治冲突为难也照顾伤者的宗教需要。
其实在认同感上，就算温和的一方也是认同达赖，把达赖14看成是其文化和传统的象征，而且在其他国家利益问题上其看法不是冷漠的嘲笑的看热闹更多就是一种对立状态（近代的历史创伤基本上是这样的，我想其不是在第一线的缘故吧）。这种状态在博客中可以看出来，可以看成情感的归属的不同。
其实中国政府不是和达赖个人争夺民心，而是和那个制度和传统争夺是和一个象征争夺，只是偏偏其领导者是个分离分子。
这个说法和帖子也许不合事宜但是老外操作这个新闻何尝不是想看政治争吵和玩笑？
即使没有政治盘算，那这件事情的解读可不得了，对海外藏独那将是一支巨大的强心针 达赖算个毛。。。 大部分倒塌的都是土木建筑的，俗称“干打垒”的较多，基本为当地人所建。
西人记者不调查、不研究，瞎说是他们的本职啊 DL是青海省湟中县祁家川人，他要回来也是做个表态而已。在政府救灾之后夺取民心可谓老谋深算。 看的一个报道说这个火葬并不是什么藏人都可以，仅次于塔葬。是适用于活佛什么的。 火葬是僧侣才能用的，西方人不了解。一般人用的是天葬。其实，这次火葬，很多人属于破格了。
另外强烈要求班禅过去。那里本来就是班禅大本营。 她说：“经历了这次地震，我长大了很多，我埋藏了自己的眼泪，转化成前进的动力。学校恢复上课之后，我要努力学习，将来成为一名医生，这样我就真正可以帮助别人了。 我们放开让达赖回来，他敢来吗？ 幸免于难更好些
个人觉得 现在学校要开始加固了，我几个当老师的朋友说，现在他们都在赶课，一个星期上六天课，为了早点放暑假，进行大规模的校舍加固！他们说是全国范围内的！ 本帖最后由 记忆之门 于 2010-4-21 16:01 编辑
这与建筑公司关系不大，多少钱干多少的活，在西部建设根本就没充足的经费，往往是能把房子搭起来就不错了，我们自家的房子就是这么建的，没钱，奈何？ 火葬是僧侣才能用的，西方人不了解。一般人用的是天葬。其实，这次火葬，很多人属于破格了。
另外强烈要求 ...
