Here are some precautionary measures that can help to increase survival chances during an earthquake.
下面是一些在地震中增加逃生机会的预防措施。
If indoors, quickly get to a safe location in the room such as getting under a strong desk, and holding firm to the desk's legs. You can also try to stay along an interior wall, which can protect you from falling objects.
如果在室内，迅速在室内找到一个安全的位置，如蹲在一个坚实的桌子下面，并牢牢地抓住桌子腿。你也可以尽量倚靠一堵内壁，这样可以防止自己被掉下来的物体砸伤。
If you are outdoors, move to an open area where falling objects like window glasses and other hanging objects are unlikely to strike you. Move away from buildings, powerlines and trees. Protect your head with hands or bags. Do not use the elevator.
如果在室外，迅速跑到一块空地上，这样诸如窗户玻璃和其他的悬挂着的掉落物就不会砸落在你身上。远离高楼，输电线和树木。用手或包保护头部。不要使用电梯。
If you are already inside an elevator, press the buttons of every floor and walk out as soon as the door opens. If you're driving, slow down smoothly and pull over to the side of the road. Do not stop the car in the middle of the road.
如果你已经处于电梯中，按下每一层的电梯按钮，只要电梯门打开就立即离开电梯。如果你正在开车，缓缓减速并将车停靠在路边。不要将车停靠在路中。
