Question

【题目】 Is an earthquake dangerous? Yes, of course. But this doesn't mean you can't do anything about it. If you know what to do in an earthquake, you can be safe.

Keep a cool head. Worry may cause (引起) bad decisions. Don' t follow others blindly(盲目地). Think about what you should do. The first several minutes are important.

When you are indoors during an earthquake, quickly move to a safe place in the room such as under a desk or table. Take care of your head. Stay away from windows.

When you are in a busy room and far away from the door, don't rush to it. You will find too many people trying to escape at the same time. Instead, stay under a desk or table.

Don't use an elevator. You may not get out of it.

Stay in a safe place until you are sure it's OK to leave. Some aftershocks (余震) may follow an earthquake. These are as dangerous as the earthquake.

If you are in debris(废墟), try to free your hands and legs. You may make much noise by hitting (打击) stones. Shouting will make you tired. Try to find some water and food. They are important for you if you aren't found in a short time. Wait patiently for help.
