It is reported that school accidents, such as food poisoning (食物中毒), fires, electricity and traffic, kill more primary and middle school students than anything else. So we must learn how to protect ourselves better. Here are some tips for keeping safety in mind every day.

On our way home or to school: Wait for the green traffic light, and look left and right before we cross the road. We’d better wear bright-color clothes, so the drivers can see us easily. Don’t believe strange people in the street.

At school: When students around us begin to push each other, we need to stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd(人群) leaves. If we fall down in a moving crowd, use both hands to cover the head. Lean(倾斜) to one side, curl up (蜷缩) our body and bend (弯曲) the legs.

In a fire: Stay calm. Leave the classroom quickly under the instructions of the teachers. Smoke can be more dangerous than fire, so use a piece of cloth to cover our mouth and nose. What will we do if the clothes burn? Remember not to run! Drop and fall to the ground. Then roll! It will make the fire go out(熄灭).

For eating: Wash fruits carefully before eating them. Check the expiration dates (保质期) on the packages of the snacks, and if it smells bad, don’t eat it.

People like to talk about “first”. They like to remember their first love or their first car. But not all firsts are happy ones. Few people enjoy the firsts that are bad.

One of history’s bad but important firsts was the first car accident(事故). Cars were still young when it happened. It took place in New York in May, 1896. A man from Massachusetts was visiting the city in his new car. At that time, bicycle riders were still trying to get used to(习惯) the new set of wheels on the road. No one was sure who was at fault(过错). Anyway, a bike and a car collided. The man on the bike was hurt. The driver of the car had to stay in prison(监狱) and wait for the hospital report on the bike rider. It was lucky that the bike rider was not killed.

Three years later, another car accident happened. It was again in New York City. He was hit by a passing car. Again, no one was sure just how it happened or who was at fault. The driver of the car was put into prison. Poor Mr Bliss became the first person to die in a car accident.
