      According to a new survey, student safety has become a big problem. Now in many big cities of China,many schools start a new lesson： self-protection. Students like this lesson because there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens. 

     ● If you are in a traffic accident 

      If a car hurts you,you should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle,try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don't know how seriously you are hurt.

      ●If it is raining hard and there is lightning 

      Don’t stay in high places and stay away from trees.

      ●When there is a fire 

      Get away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take the lift.

     ● If someone is drowning 

      If you can't swim,don't get into the water. Cry out for help.

     ● If you are robbed 

      Keep calm.If you cannot cry for help or run away,give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.

      Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all times!

      Maybe you know floods,earthquakes,sandstorms and so on. But have you heard of typhoons?

      Typhoons are some of the worst storms? usually around the Pacific Ocean. Most happen in July? August and September.

      How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun,it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough,it starts to move higher up into sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer,it starts to move quickly,making wind. The wind goes in circles and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets? the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a seconds a typhoon begins.

      A typhoon has two parts,and one is called the “eye”. In the eye,the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.

      ●Typhoons are very dangerous. What to do when a typhoon hits?

      ●Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.

      ●Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!

      ●Listen to the radio or TV for important information.

      ●If some people tell you to go to a safer place,do it right now.

     Its not easy for people to sail around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.

       One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat-a lifeboat,so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept,and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.

       How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope,and they must have a strong desire to live. People cannot drink sea water. If they drink a lot of sea water,they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food,or they will die.

     A large number of people think they can tell 4 the weather is going to be like. However,they 5 ever agree with each other. One man may say, “Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It’t going to rain tomorrow.Another man 6 say, “Yes,it’s cloudy in the east We are going to have fine weather tomorrow.”

     People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water,he looks for something to tell him it's going to rain and he won’t believe 7 else. When friends have a picnic,they are so 8 the weather is going to be fine that they sit 9 their lunch while it is raining.
