   I grew up in an area where the natural disaster I was really concerned about was earthquakes. Besides the fire drills(演习) we had each year at school, we also had earthquakes drills. Luckily, there are a few things we can do to prepare for an earthquake.

   At home, I think we can fasten heavy objects to our walls. We can buy hooks at our local hardware store. When we fasten them to the walks, we should make sure we follow the instructions.

   When we put objects on shelves, we should make sure they are not heavy or that they cannot hurt somebody when they fall off. This is especially important in bedrooms, as when we are awakened due to an earthquake, our reaction time may be slow. We will want to make sure that we don’t have objects that will fall directly on to the bed.

   For homes with children, I think parents should teach them what to do during an earthquake. Parents should show them how to get under a table during a quake. Another safe place is an inside doorframe. Parents should teach their children not to go near glass or other unsafe area during the quake. I think they should also teach children what to do if they are ever trapped after an earthquake.

   If we are in a structure, which has suffered considerable damage, I think we should try to move outside after the quake. As we go outside, we should make sure that we are aware of fallen power lines and other dangers. Broken gas mains are another serious danger after a quake.

   This is an emergency where it is important to have a family’s emergency action plan in place. Most likely a family will not be together during an earthquake. If each one can remember what they are supposed to do in this situation, then they will have an easier time finding and picking up each other.
