Do you know there is an earthquake every thirty seconds in the world? But don I worry because most of them are so small that they cannot be felt. Only a few hurt people. Many earthquakes happen in China, too. Are you ready for the next earthquake? We have some advice for you on how to keep safe in an earthquake.

When the earthquake happens, protect yourself first. The life is the most important because where there isa life, there is hope. Don't go back to get your money or other things. If you are at home, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows because anything may fall on you.If you are outdoors, try to move away from buildings and streetlights. They may fall on you. If you are ina shop and far from the door, don't run outside. Everyone will run outside so that people may hurt each other. Hide under a desk. Don't get into a lift during an earthquake. If you are in a moving car, drive to the side of the road, stop as quickly as possible, and stay in the car.Do not try to drive across bridges. It's dangerous.

When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks (ÓàÕð) may still happen. They are just asdangerous as the earthquakes, so stay under the desk until you think it is really safe for getting out. Make sure you wear shoes after an earthquake. There may be broken glass on the ground.

Remember, these tips are very important. We should always hope for the best but prepare for the worst.

Different people usually have different ways to stay healthy .In my opinion ,the most important thing is to keep a healthy attitude toward life .

It is true that physical reasons influence one¡¯s health condition(×´¿ö)a great deal ,but at the same time ,we should not forget the other reasons .Many scientists have shown that anger, suspicion and worry are greatly bad to human bodies ,while being active can be a good kind of medicine for that .That is because being active can keep a good physical state .We healthy people are much luckier ,and therefore have more reasons to keep a healthy attitude to life ,no matter what kind of trouble life may give us .

People use all kinds of ways to keep healthy because they want to live happily .Then in my view ,no other way is better than keeping a healthy attitude toward life .It can make people happier and healthier both physically and mentally (ÐÄÀíÉÏ).

Seeing around us ,we can find many people are happy with their life though they are not rich .They are pleased with everything ,kind to the environment and people around them .At the same time ,they are asking the people around them to be happy ,to help others and to work for others .What a happy society it will be if all of us keep a healthy attitude !
