【推荐2】What should you do if there is a fire at school? Do you know how to protect yourself in a large crowd? Every year since 1996, on the last Monday of the last week in March, the National Day of Education (教育) on the Safety of Primary and Middle School Students is held. This year, it fell on March 29. It offered us a chance to learn more about school safety.
A 2010 survey (调查) from People’s Daily shows that the worst accidents were a result of stampedes (踩踏), fires and traffic accidents.
Experts (专家) say that right safety measures (措施) could avoid 80 percent of these accidents, China Education Daily reported.
When there is an accident, the first and most important rule is to stay calm. But different accidents mean different ways of dealing with (应对) them.
A stampede happens in a place where a large crowd is gathered. When students around you begin to push, you should stand still (静止的) and try to hold onto something, or to stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands, lean (靠) to one side, curl (蜷缩) your body and bend (弯曲) your legs.
When there is a fire, stay calm and follow teachers’ instructions. Leave the classroom and use a piece of cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don’t breathe (呼吸) in smoke.
When you are on a school bus, remember to fasten (系牢) your seat belt (带) and don’t walk around when the bus is moving. If you walk to school or go to school by bike, follow traffic rules. Wait for the green light, and look left and right for cars before you cross the road.

【推荐3】Every year many people died or were injured in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones. However, people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.
A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones, their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally(正常地). It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.
And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, texting is. An average text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make matters worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.
Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive, if another driver is not being professional or careful,we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish, careless and should have their driving licenses (驾照)cancelled.
There is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.

【推荐3】If you or someone near you is in danger, how will you do the first aid? Mr. Zhang, a doctor in Beijing First Aid Center has some useful suggestions.
Check the environment. Watch the situation carefully. Is there anything that might do harm to you? Will you or the victim be hurt by fire, harmful smoke, a broken building, electrical wires or other dangerous situations? Do not rush into a place where you could be a victim yourself.
If being close to the victim will put your life in danger, search for skilled help at once. Skilled people have received special training and know how to deal with these situations. First aid isn ‘ t helpful if you do it but hurt yourself.
Call for help. Call the police or some other first-aid services immediately if you believe someone is seriously injured. If you are the only person on the scene,try to restart the patient,s breath before calling for help. Do not leave the victim alone.
Care for the person. Care for someone who has just gone through serious hardness. Remember to stay calm, encourage him (her) and you should be reassuring. Let the person know that help is on its way and that everything will be all right.
