If you are close to the sea, try to get as far away from the water as possible. Earthquakes can cause huge and dangerous waves that appear suddenly.

1. Earthquakes can occur anytime, so it is important to be prepared and know how to protect yourself.
anytime /'enita m/ adv. 在任何时候
anytime 作为副词，可用于句首、句中或句尾，修饰动词或整个句子，强调时间的灵活性。同义表达：at any time(更正式)。
e.g. You can call me anytime if you need help.
如果你需要帮助，任何时候都可以给我打电话。
The library is open 24/7, so you can study there anytime.
图书馆全天开放，所以你任何时候都能在那里学习。
Language points
分析结构：此句是“It is + 形容词+ to do sth.”固定句型，其中it 为形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语(to be prepared and know ...)。并列不定式to be prepared 和(to) know how to protect yourself 由and 连接，共同作真正主语。(to) know how to protect yourself 中how to protect yourself 作know 的宾语。
It is + adj. + to do sth. 句型中常用形容词：
表“必要性”：necessary, important, essential
表“难易度”：easy, difficult, hard, challenging
表“情感态度”：interesting, boring, exciting, tiring
“疑问词 + 不定式”相当于名词，可作主语、宾语和表语。
常见疑问词：how, what, when, where, which。
e.g. It is necessary to learn first aid skills in daily life.
日常生活中学习急救技能很有必要。
It is important to check the safety exits and know how to use a fire extinguisher.
检查安全出口并知道如何使用灭火器很重要。
2. Stay calm as the earth begins to shake.
as the earth begins to shake为as引导的时间状语从句。
e.g. As I was cooking, the phone rang.
我正在做饭时，电话响了。
3. If you are inside when the earthquake starts, get under a table or a bed.
长难句分析：这是一个复合句。If you are inside when the earthquake starts 是If 引导的条件状语从句，其中 when the earthquake starts 是时间状语从句。get under a table or a bed 是主句，使用祈使句形式(省略主语you)，get 是谓语动词，under a table or a bed是介词短语作地点状语。
4. Stay out of the kitchen.
stay out of 避开；远离
e.g. He was warned to stay out of trouble.
他被警告不要惹麻烦。
5. Stay away from buildings and trees.
stay away from 与……保持距离，避免接触或涉及
e.g. Children should stay away from dangerous things.
孩子们应该远离危险的东西。
7. Earthquakes can cause huge and dangerous waves that appear rapidly.
that appear rapidly为定语从句，修饰waves
6. If you are close to the sea, try to get as far away from the water as possible.
as ... as possible 尽可能地……
e.g. Read this story as quickly as possible.
尽可能快地阅读这篇故事。
8. When the earthquake is over, there is still plenty of danger.
plenty of 意为“大量的；充足的”，既能修饰可数名词复数，又能修饰不可数名词。plenty of 同义词组为lots of 或a lot of。
“plenty of + 名词”作主语时，谓语动词的单复数与其前面的名词在数上保持一致。
e.g. There is plenty of water in the bottle. 瓶子里有大量的水。
They have plenty of books to read during the vacation.
假期里他们有充足的书可以读。
9. Keep an eye out for things that can fall on you.
keep an eye out for 密切注意
e.g. When you buy something, you must keep an eye out for fake products.
当你买东西时，你一定要留意假货。
Could you please keep an eye on my children for a while
你能照看一会儿我的孩子们吗？
辨析：keep an eye out for 与keep an eye on
keep an eye out for 意为“注意；留心；警惕”。
keep an eye on 意为“照看；留意”，相当于look after。
fall on 落在；适逢；由……承担；降临；扑向
常见搭配：fall on deaf ears 被忽视、fall on hard times 遭遇困境
e.g. The snow fell softly on the roof. 雪轻轻落在屋顶上。
Christmas falls on a Sunday this year.今年圣诞节适逢周日。
The task fell on me unexpectedly. 这个任务意外落到了我头上。
Darkness fell on the village. 暮色笼罩村庄。
The soldiers fell on the enemy. 士兵们扑向敌人。
10. Too many calls will bring down the phone system.
bring down 意为“打垮；击败；使崩溃；使倒下”。是“动词副词”型短语，代词作其宾语时，要放在bring和down 中间。
bring down 还可意为“降低；减少”。
与bring 相关的短语：(1)bring back 使回忆起、(2)bring up 抚养；养育
e.g. Make sure to bring down Class One in the football match.
确保在足球比赛中打败一班。
You should bring down the prices of the goods.
你应该降低这些商品的价格。
The old photos brought back many happy memories.
这些老照片唤起了很多幸福的回忆。
11. Staying calm can improve your chances of survival in an earthquake.
survival 表示“生存；幸存”，常与介词“of”搭配，构成“the survival of ...”结构，意为“……的生存 / 幸存”。
常见搭配：the fight for survival 为生存而战
e.g. The book tells the story of his survival in the desert for 30 days.
这本书讲述了他在沙漠中生存30 天的故事。
Their main concern is the survival of the species.
他们最关心的是这个物种的存活。
