3．If you are in a shop and far from the door, don’t try to run outside and rush for exits(出口) ．Everyone will be doing that and you’ll find it hard getting out．Don’t get into a lift during an earthquake．Just hide under some strong cover near you．
4．When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks may still happen．These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself．So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up．
5．If you are at home and you smell gas(煤气) , open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as you can．A gas line in your house may be broken．This could be very dangerous．

How many kinds of shapes(形状)can you name? If something is round, what do you call it? You call it a circle．What can you see around you that looks like a circle?
Another shape is square．A square has four sides．Each side is the same length(长度) ．A square has four corners called right angles(直角) ．
A triangle is also a shape．The prefix “tri”on the base word “angle”means“three” ．A triangle always has three sides and three angles．
