What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.
Escaping from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It’s important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not elevators.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury. The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, or smoke and fire may come into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may get into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto hard ground might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.

【推荐1】March 25 is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and Middle School Students(NDESEMSS全国中小学生安全教育日). The theme of the day this year is to give students more knowledge about safety and make sure that their lives are safe.
A survey done by the China Youth and Children Research Center showed that school accidents kill more elementary and middle school students than anything else. The main accidents come from stampedes(踩踏), earthquakes, fires and sports injuries(伤害).
What can we do to keep ourselves safe? Staying calm is the first and most important rule when facing accidents. But different incidents have different self-protection advice.
A stampede is possible anywhere. The larger a human crowd gets, the more likely stampedes become. When students around you begin to push, stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands.
Earthquakes are common natural disasters(灾害). When you feel the ground shake, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. You should stay indoors until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, don’t stay near buildings, trees or power lines.
When there’s a fire, follow the teachers’ instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of wet cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don’t breathe in smoke.

【推荐3】What comes to your mind when you think about healthy food? Some say you can never go wrong with fresh fruit and vegetables, others say that meat and seafood are also good for us. Scientists have learned a lot about the kinds of food people need. They say that there are several kinds of food that people should eat every day:
• Green and yellow vegetables of all kinds;
• Citrus fruits and tomatoes;
• Potatoes and other fruits and vegetables;
• Meat of all kinds,fish and eggs;
• Milk and food made from milk;
• Bread or cereal: rice is also in this kind of food;
• Butter, or something like butter;
People in different countries and different places of the world eat different kinds of things.Food is cooked and eaten in many kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. Scientist say that none of the difference is really important. It doesn’t matter whether food is eaten raw or cooked, canned or frozen. It doesn’t matter if a person eats dinner at four o'clock in the afternoon or at eleven o'clock at night.
The important thing is what you eat every day.
There are two problems in feeding the large number of people on Earth. The first is to find some ways to feed the world's population so that no one is hungry. The second is to make sure that people everywhere have the right kinds of food to make them grow to be strong and healthy.
