On March,11,2011, an 8.9 earthquake hit Japan. Thousands of people lost their lives. In fact, every 30 seconds there is an earthquake, but don’t worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people. Here are some tips on how to stay safely in an earthquake.1. If you are indoors during an earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs,buildings and streetlights. These could fall on you.3. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because after-shocks may still happen. These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up.4. If you are at home and you smell gas, open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as you can. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous.
