There, all the students gathered around to join in the activity. Not only did Professor Li tell us it’s important to stay calm in an emergency through funny words, but he taught us how to protect ourselves if we were trapped indoors and outdoors. Besides, he shared his experiences through videos to show us what we should do when an earthquake struck. It left a deep impression on us. We all clapped our hands after the lecture.
