调查报告以earthquake为例：
Did you know the ground we stand on is moving all the time? Usually it moves as slowly as
your fingernails grow. It moves so slowly, the ground seems to be perfect still. Sometimes, though,
the ground moves suddenly. Then the movement is called an earthquake.
Causes of earthquakes
The crust is broken into plates that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The plates float on the hot,
oozing rocks. Because the plates float, the pieces of the puzzle push against one another or pull apart.
They push until one plate suddenly slips sideways. Or until the two plates bump up against each
other. Or until one plate slides below the other. That sudden movement is an earthquake!
Possible effects of earthquakes
Earthquakes are one of the most tremendous natural disasters in the world. It can cause great
damage to people. A big earthquake can kill thousands of people.
Tips for staying safe during earthquakes
Before the earthquake, you can set up mobile earthquake warning (设置手机地震预警) and
download the earthquake early warning app on your phone (手机里下载地震预警app).
When an earthquake strikes, if you are in a room, you should drop, cover and hold on. If you
are outside or in a car, you should stop and stay in a car. We should stay away from the buildings.
If you are trapped, stay calm and do not move.
An earthquake can happen anytime anywhere. So are accidents and natural disasters.
So cherish everyday! Say love to your parents before you are not able to.
