Number 2.

When the attack happens, don't panic.

29
But in the event of a crisis, it is crucial to focus and make decisions based on logic, not emotions.

This means any important or famous buildings, monuments, large bridges, tunnels, and known military bases.
41
You'll want to hit the roads quickly because it's only a matter of time before there's chaos on the streets.
42
Use a detailed map to find alternative routes out of the city with less traffic during an evacuation.
43
GPS phone applications are good, too, but you won't know how long you can rely on cell networks.
44
Number 4.
45
Find shelter.
46
For your best chance at survival, you'll need to set up a new home base away from the combat.
47
This can be a community center, a hospital, a shopping mall, or a friend's home.
48
Essentially, you're looking for a location that still has running water, electricity, and heating.
49
Keep in mind that power grids could go down at any moment as the result of a bombing
50
or even a cyber attack.
51

52
Number 5.

Be ready for nuclear warfare.
54
If a global war breaks out in this day and age, nuclear weapons will likely be used.
55

57
And then you've got to find an enclosed shelter quickly.
58
You've only got about 15 to 20 minutes before nuclear fallout starts coming down.
59
So cover your mouth and nose with a rag and close your eyes.
60
Yes, this may make it more difficult to locate shelter, but it will protect you from possible nuclear fallout.
61
Try to get to the inner part of a building, somewhere you could be protected by thick concrete, and ideally be underground.
62
Once you've found shelter, be sure to remove your outer layer of clothing and your mouth cover.
63
Seal them in a plastic bag and clean yourself as soon as possible. And then, get comfortable.

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
