Rescue dogs have an incredible sense of smell. They can detect human scent even under tons of rubble. When they find a survivor, they don't bark wildly. Instead, they usually stay calm and alert their handlers by scratching or sitting down. This tells the rescuers exactly where to dig.
Training a rescue dog takes years. They must learn to ignore distractions, like other animals or loud noises, and focus only on finding people. Despite the danger, these four-legged heroes play a vital role in saving lives after a disaster.

In Japan, schools take disaster preparation very seriously. Every month, students participate in drills for earthquakes, fires, and tsunamis.
During an earthquake drill, students wear helmets and gather under their desks. They are taught to protect their heads and necks. After the shaking stops, they line up quietly and evacuate the building in order. There is no pushing or screaming. Teachers lead them to the school playground, which is designed as a safe zone.
This training is not just for school. Students are encouraged to create "Disaster Prevention Maps" of their own neighborhoods. They mark the locations of fire hydrants, hospitals, and safe shelters. By doing this, children grow up knowing exactly what to do when the worst happens.

Ⅴ. 书面表达（参考范文）
Dear Peter,
I was sorry to hear that tornadoes often hit your city. I understand your worry, but don't be too afraid. Here are some tips to keep you safe.
If you are at home when a tornado comes, you should go to the basement immediately. If there isn't one, stay in the smallest room, like a bathroom or a closet. Remember to stay away from windows to avoid getting hurt by broken glass.
If you are outside, never try to outrun a tornado in your car. Leave your vehicle and find a sturdy building to hide in. If there is no shelter, lie flat in a ditch.
Most importantly, stay calm and follow the official instructions. Hope you stay safe!
Yours,
Li Hua
