it was september. a hurricane attacked the town one night. plenty of trees were pushed over and all the electric and telephone lines were broken. people couldn’t watch tv, or call their friends, or go to work. to their anger, they couldn’t listen to the weather forecasts the town radio station broadcast. the food and fresh water would soon be short and the patients couldn’t be given medical care—no medicine could be carried there. people didn’t know what would happen and they looked anxious.
on the fourth day they read an announcement（通告）on the town weekly. it was written,“recently we have to stop the weather forecast because of the bad weather. we usually get the forecasts from the airport. but the roads are all blocked by the fallen trees and stones. whether or not we’ll be able to broadcast the weather forecast tomorrow depends on the weather！”

(2) happen为常用语，指事物或情况偶然或未能预见地发生，其后接不定式或用在it happened that...句型中，意为：恰好，碰巧，偶然。
(3) take place指“按计划使某事或效果发生”，一般没有偶然的意味。

ruin表示破坏严重，以至不能修复，强调致使该物的功能出现了问题。
damage指部分“损坏，破坏”之意，或指价值、用途降低或外表损坏等，在破坏程度上damage要小于destroy，损坏了还可修复。
destroy指“通过某种有力的或粗暴的手段使之彻底毁坏以至不能或很难修复”，有时用于比喻意义，表示希望、计划等被打破。如：
she poured water all over my painting, and ruined it. 她把水全倒在了我的画上，把画毁了。
