Many earthquakes(地震)happen without warning, so it is important to know what to do wherever you are during an earthquake．Here are some top tips on how to stay safe in an earthquake．

　　?Keep a cool head．Worry may make bad decisions．Think about what you should do．The first several seconds are important．

　　?If you are indoors during an earthquake, hide under a heavy desk and protect your head．Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you．

　　?If you are in a crowded hall away from the door, don't rush to the exit．You will find too many people trying to get out at the same time．Instead, hide under a desk or a table．Do not get into a lift during an earthquake!

　　?Stay in a safe area until you are sure it's OK to leave．Some aftershocks(余震)may follow an earthquake．These are as dangerous as the earthquake．

　　?If you are at home and you smell gas, open a window and leave the building quickly．

　　?If you are outdoors, find a clear place away from buildings, trees, street lights and power lines．

　　?If you are buried in debris(埋在廢墟), you may make noises by knocking at the rocks．Shouting will use up your energy．You could be without help for up to 72 hours．Try to find some water and food．These are important for you．

　　Tina Lin was not like many of her classmates．She didn’t listen to popular music．She didn’t watch many movies, and she wasn’t interested in nice clothes．

　　When she got together with her friends, they wanted to listen to rock and top music．When Tina asked if they would like to try classical music, they all looked at her strangely．

　　“Classical music is for old people,”one of her friends said．

　　Tina was worried that something was wrong with her．She decided to talk to her father．As she entered his study, he could sense something was wrong．

　　“Dad, am I strange?”she asked her father．

　　“Of course not,”he answered．“Why do you ask that?”

　　“Because I don’t like the same things as my classmates．They want to listen to Mariah Carey”s music．I like Yo Yo Ma．”

　　“I think I understand．Tina, it’s all right to be your own person．You don’t have to copy what other people do．Everybody has different tastes．Some of them are popular, and others aren’t．”

　　After Tina spoke with her father, she felt better about herself．She realized that being different made her special．It was an important lesson for her to learn．
