Passage 5
Earthquakes may happen in some areas every year. How can we save ourselves when an earth- quake happens? Remember the following advice that can keep you safe.
Leave quickly. Leave the building quickly when the ground stops shaking. Don’t use a lift. It may be very dangerous. You should be careful and try not to fall down when you go downstairs. Accidents may happen when many people rush into a crowded stair. Remember to run to the ground away from street lights or power lines.
Find a safe place. If you can’t leave in time, you should hide yourselves under a table and stay away from windows. If you are in the mountains, be careful of falling rocks.
Value lives. Some people care about the things that are valuable. You will lose the best opportunity to run away. Anything is less valuable than your lives.
Keep calm. When you are caught in a building, you should keep calm. Don’t shout all the time. You should save your energy and try to find some food and water.
