If you are in an earthquake
If you are indoors, find a secure location to wait out the quake, such as under a heavy table or desk, or in an interior hallway where you can brace yourself between two walls. Doorways are among the safest places to stand, thanks to the strong beams overhead. However, watch out for swinging doors. Stay away from windows. 如在室内,躲在安全的地方。
If you are outdoors, try to get into an open area, away from falling buildings, power lines, trees, etc. 如在室外,紧急疏散到空旷地带。
If you are in a crowded public area, crouch down, with your hands protecting your head and neck. 如在人口密集的地方,蹲在地上,保护住头颈。
If you are in your car, pull over to the side, away from power lines and overpasses, and stay inside the car until the shaking has subsided. 如在车内,躲着一角,避开电线和车顶,直到震动停止。
Be sure to put on shoes immediately, to avoid injury from stepping on broken glass and objects. 穿好鞋,以防被玻璃和其他物件所伤。
Check yourself and others for injuries. 检查伤口。
Check for gas and water leaks and damage to electrical wires. 关闭煤气、水管和电线。
Survey the exterior of your home for structural damage to the chimney, roof, foundation and walls. 检查房屋状况。
Do NOT use your automobile unless there is an emergency. 除非紧急,不要用汽车。
If you must leave the area, try to leave word where you can be contacted. 如果必须离开,留下你的联系信息。
REMEMBER that there may be aftershocks, which can also cause great damage to your surroundings. Be prepared! 小心余震!

Last week we had a discussion about whether we still need Confucian thought in modern society. About 60% of the students in my class think it necessary to study Confucian thought. For one thing, more and more people in different countries are bursting to study it, showing that it is still treasured in the world. For another, Confucian thought is believed to have made great contributions to the peace of human beings.
