Passage 1 An earthquake( 地震 ) may happen at any time. It’s best for us to know what to do, where to be safe and who to contact during the earthquake. The following information will help you. Remember: Prepare your personal earthquake bag. Collect these items and keep them somewhere near you. Water, food, medicine, mobile phone, torch( 手电筒 ), personal washing things, blanket, money. Remember: Drop,Hide, Hold and Contact. Drop to the floor and protect your head and neck with your arms. Hide yourself beside something like a table, a bed and so on. Hold the furniture so that you won’t move away during the earthquake. Contact family,friends to tell them where you are. Remember: Never do these things. Don’t stand close to the buildings or stand under the trees or signs because it’s better for you to stand in an open space. Don’t go too close to the power lines( 电线 ) because you may be badly hurt by electricity.
