When we feel the ground moves suddenly, it means that an earthquake may come. Many of the earthquakes first come under the sea and then happen anywhere on the earth. Especially they often happen near the mountains and seas such as Wenchuan, Japan and Indonesia.
When an earthquake happens, it's very easy to cause a tsunami(海啸). Houses fall down, many people are injured and even died.
Now scientists are trying their best to study earthquakes. They make maps to show the “earthquake belts(地震带)”. So the houses there must be quite strong.
We believe that scientists will be able to tell us when and where an earthquake will happen in the near future. Also, they can tell us what to do and how to do. People can even use earthquakes to do something for us humans.
Hurricanes(飓风) are storms. They can cause terrible waves, wind and rain. They happen in the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean most of the time.
Category(类别)
·Scientists divide(划分) them into five categories according to the wind speed.
·A Category 5 hurricane can destroy(摧毁) all the buildings.
Characteristic(特征)
·Hurricane Season usually comes on June 1st and ends on November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean, from May 15th to November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.
Danger
·It can cause flood when a hurricane comes with heavy rain.
·A hurricane has an eye. The eye means the center of a hurricane. After the eye passes, the wind and rain comes again.

There are so many traffic accidents now. Many people are killed or hurt everyday on roads. It's becoming a more and more serious problem. Why?
Sometimes drivers drive too fast or don't drive carefully enough. They talk or answer the cellphone during the driving. Some drivers drive against the red lights. What's worse(更糟的是), some drive on the road after drinking alcohol(酒) too much. Now ①“No driving after drinking; No drinking before driving” is very popular.
Many people think the main reason of traffic accidents are from drivers. Is it true?
A survey(调查) shows that the pedestrians(行 人) can also cause the traffic accidents. Some of them often walk in the roads instead of on the walkways. They get into or out of cars in the middle of the road. They walk or run in front of the fast cars. They even walk across the roads against the red lights.
Some people think that too many people cause too many accidents. However, the traffic in Tokyo shows that it is wrong. ② Tokyo(东 京) is one of the world's largest and busiest cities. The police there are strict, the drivers there are careful, the pedestrians follow the traffic rules. There are very few accidents happening there.
Where is the safe way?
