22.An earthquake is a sudden shaking of the ground.It happens because there is movement in the earth's crust. Earthquakes usually come without warning.What should you do if this happens to you?Stay calm as the earth begins to shake and move.An earthquake is dangerous,but there are things you can do to protect yourself. If you are inside when the earthquake starts,stay calm and get under a table or a bed.You need to have something strong around you to protect you from falling objects. Do not stand near walls or windows and stay out of the kitchen.The kitchen is dangerous because there are so many glass objects.Also,never get into a lift during an earthquake. If you are outside,stay calm and get to an open area as fast as you can.Stay away from buildings and trees.If you are in a car,drive to a place without trees or tall buildings.If you are close to the sea,try to get as far away from the water as possible.Earthquakes can cause huge waves (海浪) that can really hurt the people nearby. When the earthquake is over,there is still plenty of danger.If you see a fire,quickly move outdoors to an open area.If you have a phone,use it only once to call your family or a friend.Too many calls will bring down the phone system.Your chances of survival (幸存) in an earthquake go up if you stay calm.Staying calm is difficult,but it can save your life.
