In light of what has happened in many countries* we can all see how dev?astating (破壞 性的) an earthquake can be. You may be asking yourself, " How do I get prepared for a quake if I don't know that it's coming?"There are some steps that you can take to make your home a little safer in the event that a quake occurs.

Ensure that heavy furniture is not in a position where it could fall onto a bed. If a quake occurs while you are in bed, you do not want your bookcase falling on you. Check and repair deep cracks(裂縫)in ceilings. This is espe?cially important after a quake.

If you see any damage that you are unable to repair, consult a professional. Ensure that you have no gas leaks(泄露)in or around your home.

Indoors： If you stay indoors, get low to the ground and move only to the nearest piece of strong furniture or corner. Crouch(蜷伏)down low covering the back of your neck and head with your hands. Stay away from windows or anything that could fall on you.

Outdoors: If you stay already outdoors, stay out there. Get away from any buildings, power lines, or anything that could fall.
