Natural disasters can hit anywhere, anytime, and being prepared is the key to staying safe. Earthquakes, typhoons, and floods are common natural disasters that can cause terrible damage and bring serious threats（威胁）to safety.
Earthquakes suddenly shake the ground, often without warning. To stay safe during an earthquake, people had better “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops. You can find a strong table to hide under and hold on.
Typhoons, known as hurricanes or cyclones in other parts of the world, can lead to strong winds and too much rain. Before a typhoon arrives, storing necessary things like food, water, and batteries is important.
Floods can happen when rivers overflow because of too much rain. To prepare well, avoid building homes in the areas where floods often happen and place important electrical appliances（电器）up off the ground in your home. Having an emergency plan is also a must.
By understanding these disasters and taking action, people can reduce the risk of harm and recover（恢复）more quickly after disasters happen.

Fire. When a fire breaks out, we should keep calm and call 119 as soon as possible after we are safely outside. Do not take the elevator. Also, we should cover our mouth and nose with a wet cloth to protect ourselves from the harm of thick smoke. (开放试题, 言之有理, 言之有物即可)
