AWhen a disaster happens,you might find yourself without water,gas or electricity.You might also need to leave your home right away.So you are supposed to plan for such bad situations.Here are some suggestions.●Have a family meeting.Plan a way to get your family members together after the disaster.Choose two places for everyone to go to if it isn’t safe to return home.The first meeting place should be near your house.You can go there in an emergency like a fire.The second should be outside your neighborhood.●Choose a person outside your area to help.It is easier to communicate over a long-distance call than a local one.The person can help your family members get in touch with each other.●Get a family disaster kit（应急包）ready.It should include the things your family needs.It can help you survive at least for three days with bread,water,medicine and things like that.Put them in a bag so that you can carry it if you leave in a hurry.Do remember that different people have different

be more difficult to learn a new language,though.Children and adults learn new languages in different ways.For children,language is their life.They study for thousands of hours every year,because they need to learn languages to become part of their communities.Adults,on the other hand,are already part of a language community.Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community,and adults rarely get the chance to practice as much as young children do.Moreover,children learning a new language are expected to make mistakes.This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident.Adults,however,often feel pressured to be perfect when learning a new language.This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.When young children learn a new language,they come to see all kinds of languages as a“normal”part of society.This mindset（思维模式）helps them embrace learning a new language without feeling like they’re doing something unusual or“too hard”.So if you want to learn a new language,go for it!It’s never too late to learn a new language.If you’re older,it may take more work,but it can be done.If you’re a young child,though,now it is the time to step out and learn a new language!9．By saying“language is their life”in Paragraph2,the author means that children.A．can’t live without language B．lead a happy life
