Earthquakes usually come without warning. What should you do if this happens to you? An earthquake is dangerous, but there are still things you can do to protect yourself.
Stay calm as the earth begins to shake. Your chances of survival in an earthquake go up if you can keep calm. Staying calm is not easy, but it can save your life.
If you are inside when the earthquake starts, get under a table or a bed. You need to have something strong around you to protect you from falling objects. Do not stand near walls and windows and stay out of the kitchen. The kitchen is dangerous because of many glass objects.
If you are outside, get to an open area as fast as you can. Stay away from buildings and trees. If you are in a car, pull over to a place where there are no trees or tall buildings and stay in the car. If you are close to the sea, try to get as far away from the water as possible. Earthquakes can cause huge waves(浪) that can really harm the people nearby.
When the earthquake is over, there is still plenty of danger. For example, gas fire often comes with an earthquake. If you see a fire, quickly move outdoors to an open area.
Always remember to hope for the best but prepare for the worst.

We all know that smoking is bad for people’s health. But not many people know about the danger of second-hand smoke.
Second-hand smoke is the smoke that comes from the smoke breath (呼吸). If people breathe in second-hand smoke from time to time, they could get sick from it.
But how serious is the problem of the second-hand smoke? The World Health Organization (WHO) did a study of 194 countries. They found that second-hard smoke causes about 600,000 deaths every year. That is about 1% of the world’s deaths.
Second-hand smoke is especially bad for children because their bodies are still growing. According to the study, around 165,000 children under the age of 5 die each year because of second-hand smoke. Most of these deaths happen in Africa and southern Asia.
You can do something to keep yourself and other people away from second-hand smoke. You can ask the smokers, such as your parents, to smoke outside. And, if someone smokes close to you, you’d better hold your breath or just walk away.
