請閱讀下面圖文內(nèi)容，按要求完成所給任務(wù)，并將答案寫在答題卷相應(yīng)的位置上。

What should you do if there’s an earthquake at school? How can you protect yourself when you are caught in a stampede(踩踏)? 三月二十五日給了我們一個學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)安全的好機(jī)會。

This day is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and middle School students(全國中小學(xué)生安全教育日). The purpose of the day is to give us more knowledge about safety.

Staying calm is the first and most important rule when facing accidents, but different accidents have different self-protection tips.

A stampede is possible anywhere. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hand. Lean to one side, curl up (卷起) your body and bend (彎曲) your legs.

Earthquakes are common. When you feel the ground shake, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. If you are outdoors, find a place away from buildings, trees, and power lines.

When there’s a fire, follow the teachers’ instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of cloth to cover your moth and nos.

Sports injuries (傷害) may happen while doing sports. Before playing sports,·you should warm up for 15 to 30 minutes.

What do other countries do to keep students safe?

Japan Earthquake Drills (演習(xí))

At public schools in Japan, earthquake drills are held once a month. They teach students safety tips during an earthquake. Regular training helps students escape from earthquake-stricken areas without causing any stampedes.

Australia First-aid (急救) Courses

Most students in Australia take first -aid courses at school. They learn basic first-aid knowledge in the class, such as how to call an ambulance (救護(hù)車) and what to do when someone is hurt. The government is trying to make all kids take such courses.

US The Fire Escape

Most US school buildings have fire escapes (火災(zāi)逃生口). A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders at each floor of a building. Thery are usually made of steel and built outside the building. People can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window. It is not a good idea to jump out of window from higher than two floors. It may hurt yourself.
