昨日上午，宁波江北区发生爆炸，目前已致2死2重伤。
BBC新闻开头是这样的：
At least two people have been killed and dozens more injured in anexplosionin the eastern Chinese port city of Ningbo, local officials say. Theblastis said to have occurred at a factory at about 09:00 (01:00 GMT) in the city's Jiangbei District, causing some nearby buildings tocollapse.
今年3月，内蒙古包头一幢住宅楼发生爆炸，83户居民房屋受损，导致5人死亡，数十人受伤。当时的外媒新闻是这样写的：
A total of 83 homes were damaged in a powerful explosion thatripped throughan apartment building in Baotou，Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region，killing five and injuring dozens.
其中，rip through：move forcefully and rapidly 猛冲，飞速前进：
fire ripped through her bungalow
大火迅速吞没了她的平房。
关于灾难的这种概括描述，都可以用这样的组句逻辑：
什么时候在哪里发生了什么灾难（主句），killing （死亡人数）and injuring （受伤人数）
又比如去年天津爆炸案，BBC报道的第一句：
Massive explosions have hit China's northern city of Tianjin, killing at least 50 and injuring 500 people.
还有另一篇关于地震的报道，也是第一句：
An earthquake has struck South Africa, killing one person and injuring some gold miners south-west of Johannesburg.
