Integration— Workbook 一、Becky写了一篇文章告诉家长们如何帮助自己的孩子应对自然灾害。阅读下面的短文，看看应该怎么做。 As parents, you can help children deal with the fear of natural disasters and help protect them from being hurt by telling them how disasters happen, and what to do when disasters happen. Here are some tips for you: Find out what disasters are possible in your area by visiting your local library. Think about where your family should go if your house is destroyed. Teach children the warning signs and signals in your area and practise what to do if a disaster happens. Once you know the danger, ask your children to help check the safety in your house. You and your children can also work together on a disaster plan and prepare a disaster box with food, water and necessary tools. If a disaster does happen, pay attention to your children's behaviour. Changes in behaviour, for example, acting strangely, mean that your children need help. Allow children to share their feelings about what has happened such as drawing a picture or writing a story. Let friends and neighbours help you if they can. Continue to tell your children that they are loved. 1. The passage was written for . A. students B. parents C. policemen D. doctors 2.
