It's very common to see lightning storms(雷雨) in summer. Some people don't take them carefully. In fact, lightning storms are very dangerous for people, and they can even kill people.

So how do we keep safe during a lightning storm?

If you are indoors, stay away from windows and doors during a lightning storm. Don't take a shower or do the dishes because lightning can travel through water. Turn off the TV and computer. My computer was broken, so I learned it the hard way. Never use the phone. Lightning can travel through the phone line and hit you.

If you are outdoors during a lightning storm, never take shelter(庇護) under a tree because the lightning could hit the tree and travel through the tree to hit you. Stay away from anything that is metal(金屬). Try to get in your car and close all the windows, or go into a nearby building right away. If there's no building around, try to find a low place to stay in. Squat(蹬) down near the ground and put your hands over your ears. Never use a cellphone.

1.When are the lightning storms common?

A. In spring. B. In summer. C. In autumn. D. In winter.

2.What can you do if you are indoors during a lightning storm?

A. Watch TV. B. Take a shower.

C. Stay away from windows. D. Play computer games.

3.What can't you do if you are outdoors during a lightning storm?

A. Stand under a tree. B. Get into your car.

C. Go into a nearby building. D. Squat down near the ground.

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A. What a Lightning Storm Is

B. How to Take Shelter During a Lightning Storm

C. How to Stay Away from a Lightning Storm

D. How to Keep Safe in a Lightning Storm
