    Earthquakes are hard to predict, but do you know what to do before, during and after an earthquake? Here's some advice:

    Before an earthquake. It's necessary to prepare yourself and your family. All family members should know how to turn off the gas, water and electricity and know useful telephone numbers (120, 110, 119, etc.). Never put heavy things over beds.

    During an earthquake. It's important for each of you to stay calm. If you are indoors, quickly move to a safe place in the room such as under a strong table. The purpose(目的) is to protect yourself from objects. Stay away from windows, large mirrors, heavy furniture and so on. If you're cooking, turn off the gas. If you're outdoors, move to an open area like a playground. Move away from buildings, bridges and trees. If you are driving, stop the car as soon as possible and stay away from bridges and tall buildings.

Stay in your car.

    After an earthquake. Once the shaking has stopped, DO NOT run out of the building at once. It's better to wait and leave when it's safe. Check around you and help the people who are in trouble.

When thinking of the Arctic (北冰洋), some people may imagine an icy land of white snow. And other people may imagine it as the last really clean place left on Earth. In fact, we have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish, and now, CNN says, "It's the Arctic's turn."

German scientists have recently found microplastics in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1,800 pieces of microplastics per liter (升) of snow. That may cause terrible air pollution. 

How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, "It's clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air. They fall off plastic objects and are moved by the wind. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow."

Are they bad for us? We do know that our bodies cannot take in "large" pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health. What's more, earlier studies have shown that microplastics may contribute to lung (肺) cancer risk. 

Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, damaging (损坏) ecosystems along the way. When we wash clothes with plastic fibers (纤维), they start in our wastewater. The wastewater then flows into rivers and out to sea. They are eaten by sea animals there. If people then eat these animals, it means that we're eating the plastic as well.

 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
