The death has risen to 615 four days after the powerful earthquake. Among the reported deaths, 526 were in the worst-hit Ludian County and 76 in Qiaojia County. The official count showed that there were 114 missing and 3,143 people injured in the 6.5-magnitude earthquake. And the earthquake caused lots of buildings to fall down, including at least one school. CCTV says that the earthquake was the strongest that hit Yunnan in the recent 14 years, and the epicenter was in Longtoushan town in Yunnan’s Ludian County. It also says the government is sending thousands of tents, folding beds, quilts and coats to the affected area. Attempts to reach the epicenter have been stopped by heavy rain, with some rescuers forced to travel on foot. Southwestern China is often struck by earthquakes. In 2012 an earthquake in the Yunnan region killed at least 80 people. A week later, a memorial service was held on Sunday in Ludian County for the victims of the 6.5-magnitude earthquake that rocked the area. While people gathered in public spaces for three minutes of silence, drivers sounded their car horns. “I am expecting those who lost their loved ones to survive.” said Ke Guoxian, a teacher at the Third Elementary School of Ludian County. “I am so touched that so many people rushed to help us.” said Ma Siying, a fourth-grader at the school. 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了云南地震的相关情况。这次地震震中位于鲁甸县，地震造成至少600多人死亡，100多人失踪，3000多人受伤。大量楼房倒塌，其中至少包括一所学校。这次地震给当地人民带来非常大的灾难，但人们在地震中互帮互助，体现了一人有难，八方支援的精神。 How many people lost their lives in this earthquake?
