Regular training helps students escape from earthquake-stricken areas without causing any stampedes (踩踏).AustraliaMost students in Australia take first-aid courses at school. They learn basic first-aid knowledge in the class, such as how to call an ambulance (救护车) and what to do when someone is hurt. The government is trying to make all kids take such courses.USMost US school buildings have fire escapes (火灾逃生口). A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders at each storey of a building. They are usually made of steel and built outside the building. People can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window.

But traveling might not be that fun for everyone, especially for those who have motion sickness (晕动症).Motion sickness is also called travel sickness. It is a common experience for many people. Depending on how you travel, it can be called carsickness or seasickness. People with motion sickness feel very uncomfortable while they are in motion (在移动中). They feel sick and dizzy, like the room around them wont stop spinning.It is generally believed that motion sickness happens when your senses become confused with each other, Scientific American reported.We use different parts of our body to sense movement. Our eyes tell us if we are moving. The inner ears (内耳) contain a special liquid (液体) that helps us sense our direction and balance. Our muscles (肌肉) react to movement. When you move around, these body parts work well together. But when you are in a car or an airplane, they get confused. Your inner ear signals that youre moving, but your eyes say youre sitting still because you cant see that youre moving. This mismatch gives us motion sickness.But some people are less sensitive to motion sickness. This may be because they have certain genes (基因) that prevent mismatching senses, Bethann Hromatka, a genetics expert from the US, told the Atlantic.Although there are many ways to deal with motion sickness, scientists believe that the key is to simply try to adapt to it. For example, some astronauts do special exercises that give them mild (轻微的) motion sickness. After a week or two, the astronauts become used to it and dont feel uncomfortable anymore, Sam Puma, a NASA flight doctor, told the BBC.46. What do we know about motion sickness?A. It is called carsickness when you travel by car.B. It happens to only a small number of people.C. It can make traveling more fun.D. It causes the room to spin continuously.47.

Because they lose their sense of direction. C. Because their eyes cant see properly. D. Because there is a mismatch among their senses.49. The astronauts are mentioned to show that _. A. it is impossible for others to deal with motion sicknessB. astronauts can easily adapt to motion sicknessC. special exercises can help deal with motion sicknessD. motion sickness has something to do with genes.DIn 1974, farmers in Xian, Shanxi, were digging wells.
