Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare． Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens， prepare some supplies for your home， workplace， and car．

1．Water．

A person need at least 1/2 gallon of water daily just for drinking． Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period．It is suggested that you buy bottled water． Keep bottled water in its original container and do not open it until you need to use it． Also， do check the “use by” date．

2．Food．

It’s always a practical idea to keep a supply of nonperishable （不易腐爛的）food on hand． Have an enough supply of canned food， powdered milk， dried fruits, nonsalted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours．

3．Flashlights （手電筒） and spare batteries．

Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car． Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks．

Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries． Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information．

4．Clothes．

If you live in a cold place， you must think about warmth． You might not have heat after an earthquake． Think about your clothing and bedding supplies．

Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British and American English? How important are these differences?

Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a few differences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say“in hospital” and “Have you get a pen?” while Americans say “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?”. Pronunciation is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “bird “and “hurt”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour” and “honour” are British, while “color” and “honor” are American.

　 These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary are not important, however. For the most part, British and American English are the same language.
