Hints on Safety
Nearly everyone is attracted to water, whether it is in the sea, canals, rivers or the village pond. Beautiful as it is, water should be regarded with respect, as it can be dangerous. Around 300 children up to the age of ten die each year from drowning. It should be every parent’s duty to ensure that both he and the child can swim and that as the child gets older, he has some knowledge of life-saving and artificial respiration(人工呼吸).
The basic rules of water safety are:
•Don’t leave small children playing alone in water
•Never swim an hour before or an hour after a main meal
•If it’s a danger area, find out before you start swimming where the life-guard is or where a lifebelt is available(可提供的)
•As children get older, try to teach them to remain calm in an emergency(紧急情况)
•Look out for warning things to see whether you’re in a danger area(see under this)
•Be especially careful of inland stretches of water pools, reservoirs (水库) and dykes(沟) where there are often fewer people about than at the seaside.

Earthquakes are something that people fear. There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world, however, have them regularly（有规律地）. Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.
