If you're in a CROWDED ROOM OR PUBLIC PLACE,do not rush for exits.(如果身处拥挤的公共场所,不要急着冲向出口)If outdoors,stay outdoors.Move to an open area away from trees,buildings,utility(公共设施) poles and lines,or signs.
If in a VEHICLE,pull to the side of the road as quickly as possible,(如果是在船上,迅速将船靠岸) but keep away from overhead hazards such as trees,buildings,utility poles and lines,signs,and bridges.Stay in the vehicle until the shaking stops.
If you're in a THEATER OR STADIUM,stay in your seat or get under it if possible,(如果是在剧场或演播室里面,呆在你的座位上或者如果可能的话钻到座位下面)and protect your head with your arms.Do not try to leave until the shaking is over."
In a word,try best to protect yourself in an earthquake.
