There are many different kinds of disasters(灾难) around the world. As an adult, you know what to do during a disaster, but what about the children? Some adults think it would probably never happen to them, so they don’t teach their children what to do. Before it’s too late, here are ways to help you prepare your child for a disaster:
Educate: It is always good to let your child know about possible disasters. This doesn’t mean children have to live in fear. When teaching them about disasters, keep the conversation positive（积极的）by telling them there is a solution to the disaster. Keep the conversations short, allow for questions and answer honestly.
Prepare: Always be prepared. That is the best advice for children. For example, when preparing for bad weather, get the tools you need, like candles, radios, food, water and medicine. Teach your child what is needed in certain disasters so that they know what is available for them, if ever needed.
Plan: You should always have a plan for you and your child for any dangerous situation. Write out a simple list that they can read. The plan could start with “listen to an adult’s advice or call 119”.
Practice: Once you have got the correct safety tools and worked out the right plan, practice every few months. Practicing what to do during a disaster with your child will help them if the time comes.
Disasters can’t be avoided but they can be lessened（减轻）once you are prepared and ready for one.

One day when I was going for a walk, I found a small egg in the grass. There were little blue dots(点) on it. “__▲__” I wondered. My elder sister was taking science lessons at high school. I knew she could tell me the answer.
When I got home, I watched the small egg carefully. Tap tap tap! The sound came from the egg. A small brown beak (鸟喙) came out from the egg. “It’s a bird!” I cried. I didn’t have to wait for my sister’s answer anymore.
“It must come from the robin’s nest in the front yard,” Mom saw the egg and said. “If we return it to the nest now, its mother will take care of it when it hatches(孵化).” “But I want to keep it as a pet!” I said. “The baby bird needs its mother. And we don’t know how to keep a baby bird.” I knew my mom was right and returned the egg to the nest.
One morning, not too long after finding the egg, my mother called me out to the yard. “Look!” She said. I looked up and saw the baby bird. Its mother was feeding it! It looked strong and happy.

If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today many teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.
But the influence of bad eating habits goes beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eating unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have right meal for lunch. In a survey at one school, scientists find that many students don’t follow a healthy diet. They don’t like vegetables or fruits.

★Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.
★Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.
