Many____4__ collapsed and the mountains moved. ___5____was attacked by terrorists on September 11 . the terrorists crashed into America's pentagon with an___6___. the terrorists used airplanes to hit many__7____ buildings in America. There were bombs inside the buildings. When the airplanes hit the tall buildings, the tall buildings and the airplanes exploded. About six thousand people____8__. How terrible that is! I think the terrorists were crazy. People say that the American emergency number is 911, so the terrorists chose September 11 to attack America. There was a big typhoon on July 11 this year in Taiwan. It's name was Tarija. Many cities ___9__flooded. Some people died because of landslides. these dates all this "one" number.
