Earthquakes happen without warning(前兆). They can happen any time of a day, at any point during the year. When an earthquake is happening, you should know what you should do or not do.

Do NOT go outside. You could get injured from falling glass or parts of buildings. If you are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines(输电线).

Stay under a desk, table, or other strong furniture. Hold on to it. Or stay in a corner of the building. Cover your face and head with your arms and cover your mouth with a towel or clothing. Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.

Keep away from windows, pictures or advertisements on the wall or the building, and anything else that could fall and hurt you. Most people get injured by falling things during an earthquake, not by the shaking itself.

Also keep away from a fire. You could fall down and burn yourself on the fire.

If you are driving when an earthquake happens，stop the car if it’s safe. Stay inside your car until the earthquake stops, and don’t drive near bridges. Try not to stop by power lines or trees. These could fall and hurt you.

    Everyone knows Smokey the Bear in the USA!

    ----You see him on TV.

    ----You see him in the paper.

----You hear him on the radio.

 Smokey always wears a forest ranger’s (护林员) hat. And he says the same words over and over, “Be careful! Only you can prevent forest fires!”

   Who first thought of him, and why? His story goes back to 1945. before then, there were many, many forest fires. Big trees were burned down. Land was burned black in many places. Careless people started most of the fires. They did not put out their campfires, or threw away matches that were still burning.

“Let’s tell people something about forest fires! Let’s tell them they often start the fires,” said a man named Mr. Gray.

“Good!” said Mr. Ross. “ Now, what’s the best way to tell them?”

“A friendly bear could tell them,” said Mr Gray.

Everyone agreed. So Smokey was “born”---name, hat and everything! Ever since then, he has had a green job. And he has done it well. People are more careful now because of the friendly bear. Smokey keeps telling us, again and again, “ Put out that match. Put out that campfire! Only you can prevent forest fires!”

Smokey often makes us feel good, too! He says, “ Thanks for being careful.”
