六、阅读理解
Dust storms appear when strong winds blow sand and dirt from a dry surface. Strong dust storms may cause people to die, so you should know how to protect yourself from dust storms when you meet them.
Take dust storm warnings seriously
Dust storms probably happen on hot summer days, and it’s not safe for people to travel during this period. So you should listen to the local TV or radio before travelling, and consider changing or giving up your trip if dust storms are to come.
Be prepared
If you are in a place where storms often happen, carry a mask(口罩) to keep dust and dirt away from your face, and a pair of glasses to protect your eyes.

Stay inside
Do not move around when a dust storm comes, as you will not be able to see hidden dangers. So if you are in a house, don’t go out and just stay inside.
Protect yourself from flying objects
Cover your body as much as possible in a dust storm. A strong wind of dust storms can carry heavy objects, so you should try to stay low and close to the ground, and protect your head with your arms or a backpack.
