     If you go into the forests with friends, stay with them. If you don't,you may get lost. If you do get lost,
this is what you should do.

     There is another way to help your friends or other people to find you. Give them a signal (信号) by
shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given
three times is a call for help.
     Keep on shouting or whistling, always three times together. When people hear you, they will give two
shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help. If you don't think that
you will get help before night comes, try to make a small room with branches (树枝).
     What should you do if you get hungry or need to drink water? You would have to leave your little branch
room to look for something to eat and drink. Don't just walk away. Drop small branches as you walk so that
