Answer :

In the context of activities before, during, and after an earthquake, here are the do's and don'ts: Do's: 1. Fix mirrors, paintings, and other hanging objects securely before an earthquake to prevent them from falling and causing injuries. 2. Get out of the classroom in an orderly manner during an earthquake to ensure everyone's safety. 3. Close curtains and blinds of window glass to avoid shattering glass during an earthquake. 4. Proceed to the identified evacuation area after the earthquake to gather with others in a safe place. 5. Locate beds and chairs away from windows to minimize the risk of injuries from shattered glass during an earthquake. Don'ts: 1. Panic: Run, Push, Talk/Shout during an earthquake as it can cause chaos and increase the risk of injuries. 2. Hang heavy pictures and other items over beds as they can fall and cause harm during an earthquake. 3. Use any elevator during or after an earthquake as they may malfunction or get stuck, trapping you inside. 4. Go near buildings, tall trees, power-lines after an earthquake as there may be aftershocks or structural damage that could pose a risk. 5. Run when the shaking starts; instead, stay put until the shaking stops to avoid tripping or falling during the earthquake.
