　　Earthquakes always happen suddenly, so it is difficult to warn people about them. Usually people have little or no idea about what to do in an earthquake, so here is some advice. When you are in the high buildings, don’t jump out of them. When the ground stops shaking, leave the building as quickly as you can. When you are outside, don’t stand under street lights or power lines. I think you must stay away from bridges and trees. If you are in a car, you’d better stay in it. You should be brave and help save other people.
