5．Earthquakes can be very dangerous，but it is more dangerous when you are not fully prepared for the disaster．Earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth．When some plates（板块） of the earth move suddenly，an earthquake happens．During an earthquake，the shakings make rocks rise suddenly and even crack（断裂）open．Houses fall，people are killed or hurt，and sometimes the whole villages or cities are destroyed．
Can you do something to keep ourselves safe from earthquakes？If you are inside when an earthquake happens，stay away from all the windows and tall furniture．If your home has a heavy desk，take shelter（躲避） under it．If you are outside during an earthquake，try to move to an open area．Most of the people who die in earthquakes are killed by falling buildings．So avoid high buildings，walls and power lines．If you are in a car，try to drive to an open area．
Scientists have studied earthquakes and make maps that show the"earthquake belts"（地震带）．In areas in these belts，it's possible for earthquakes to happen．In these areas we should build strong houses to fight against earthquakes．
In the future，scientists will be able to tell when and where an earthquake will be before they happen．They can also tell people what to do and how to do it．

Simple pranks，like telling a friend a funny lie or making prank phone calls，are still common．But，major companies also get in on April Fools'Day fun in a much bigger way．A few years ago，on April 1^st，Starbucks announced it was introducing new coffee cup sizes-Plenta and Micra．The very large cups，bigger than a human head，remained useful for customers even after finishing all that coffee．According to Starbucks，the cups could be used as a rain hat，a pot for plants，or a lampshade （灯罩）．
More and more，people use smart phone apps to play pranks on their friends on April Fools'Day．One smart phone app，Cat Facts，sends funny facts about cats to your friends'phones，every day．
