The building is shaking. A woman with a baby in her arms is trying to open the door, but fails. Finding no way, she rushes into her bedroom and there they survive  the earthquake. ?

In a factory building, as the workshop floor swings under the terrible shaking, workers run for safety. Some hide(隐藏) under the machines and  survive , but others who try to run outside are killed by the falling ceilings.?

These scenes, played by actors and actresses, are from a film of science education 《Making a Split Second Decision》  shown in 1998 on China Central TV in memory of Tangshan Earthquake.

Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare. Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace, and car.

1. Water.

A person needs at least 1/2 gallon of water daily just for drinking. Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water in its original container and do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date.

2. Food.

It’s always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable(不易腐烂的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, powdered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.

3. Flashlights(手电筒) and spare batteries.

Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks.

Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information.

4. Clothes.

If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies.

1. Why should people prepare themselves for an earthquake?

   A. Because earthquakes can be known before they happen.

   B. Because earthquakes take place without warning.

   C. Because earthquakes usually take place in the neighborhood.

   D. Because it’s people’s daily work to prepare the earthquakes.

2. About the prepared water, which description is RIGHT?

   A. A person should prepare 0.5 gallon of water for one day.

   B. You’d better use your own containers to keep water.

   C. You’d better open the bottled water when you buy it.

   D. You shouldn’t open the bottled water until you need it.

3. You should prepare all of the following except ______.

   A. powdered milk                            B. fresh vegetables

   C. dried fruits                                D. canned juices

4.According to the article we know that ______.

   A. we need to prepare some supplies only at home

   B. a telephone is the most important prepared thing

   C. flashlights but not matches are first used after earthquakes

   D. clothes are used to protect your head
