题目内容:
Dust storms are violent and mostly unpredictable. They
can cause property damage, injuries, and deaths, so it’s necessary to know what
to do when you come across them.
Watch out for dust storm
warnings. Dust storms are most likely to occur on hot summer days, so listen to
the local TV or radio broadcasts before traveling in hot, dry conditions, and
consider changing or giving up your trip if dust storms are predicted. Roadside
signs may also be able to warn you of dust storm danger.
Be prepared. If you are in a
storm-prone area, carry a mask(
口罩) to keep out small dust particles (颗粒), and
take eye protection to protect your eyes. A supply of water is also necessary.
Go beyond the storm. If you
see a dust storm from some distance, and you are in a vehicle, you should try
to escape from it. Some dust storms can travel at more than 75 miles per hour,
but they frequently travel much slower. However, it is not advisable to put
yourself at risk by driving at high speed.
Stay inside. Do not move
about in a storm, as you will not be able to see hidden risks in your path. So
if you’re in a house, stay inside.
Protect yourself from flying
objects. Cover as much of your body as possible. A dust storm’s high wind can
carry heavy objects. If you find yourself without shelter, try to stay low,
close to the ground, and protect your head with your arms, a backpack or a
pillow.
