If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths, injuries and damage. So you need a good preparation ahead of time. Decide how and where your family will get together if separated. Choose an out-of-state friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are. Know the safe places in each room: under the strong tables, desks, or against inside walls. Keep enough food, water and other things, including a flashlight, a radio, medicines and clothing.During the earthquake, you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do. Protect your head and neck with your arms. If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass and ruins. If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture. If outdoors, move to an open area away from trees, buildings, walls or power poles. If you are in a narrow valley, move to the centre of it and look up for falling stones. If you are in a car, move to the side of the road and stop the car. Do not stop near buildings, power lines or on or under bridges. Stay in your car until the shaking stops.Do not move a badly injured person unless he is in great danger after the earthquake.

Researchers desire non-deadly shark control measures such as eco-barriers, which physically separate swimmers from sharks, sonar (声呐)technology, and all kinds of shark-spotting techniques.Researchers said while the risk of ing across a shark was rare, any shark-related death, or injury caught huge public and media attention, making people take action.One of the arguments in support of using shark nets is that just one shark-related death has been reported in Queensland since the 1960s. Similarly, since the 1930s, NSW has had only one shark-related death. But there have been at least 13 people killed by sharks at beaches without nets on the NSW North Coast over the past two years.The Humane Society International's head of campaigns, Nicola Beynon, said the government needed to move away from outdated methods. a Deadly shark nets and drum lines are more than 50 years behind scientific and animal welfare standards for dealing withmarine wildlife> “ Beynon said. fThe NSW Greens' marine spokesman, Justin Field, said, “People are 100 times more likely to drown at the beach than to be killed by a shark in Australia. Therefore, millions of dollars going into the shark net program should be directed to observation towers for our lifeguards and impro
