校园防火Campus fire safety


People are alarmed by the succession of campus fires in recent years. In each of these accidents, heavy casualties were reported – houses were burned down, students lost their lives, and properties were damaged. Faced with such a chilling fact, people keep asking, “What on earth results in these repeated tragedies?”

近年来，人们对连续的校园火灾感到震惊。每一个事故中都有严重的伤亡报道，房屋被烧毁，学生失去生命，财产受到损失。面对这样一个令人毛骨悚然的事实，人们不禁反问，“究竟是什么导致这些悲剧反复发生？”

A brief survey of them reveals that human factors still prove to be the leading causes. For example, three of these fires were caused by the students’ use of electric water-heaters. As students often leave the heaters unattended, the risks are rather high should the water in the bottle boil dry while no one is around to turn off the power. In other cases, fires were also caused by stoves, candles, cigarette butts, etc.

一项简单的调查揭露，人为因素仍然是主要的原因。比如，其中三起事故都是由于学生使用“热得快”而引起的。由于学生经常让“热得快”处于无人看守状态，如果瓶中的水烧干却没有人在旁边拔掉电源的话风险是相当高的。其他情况，如火炉，蜡烛，烟头等也会引起火灾。

Since most of these disasters could have been prevented if proper precautions had been taken, students should be better educated on the importance and measures of fire control. The following three reminders are of particular importance for us students: First, learn how to use a fire extinguisher. Second, double-check candles, heaters, stoves and other electric appliances, and make sure there are no open flames before leaving rooms. Lastly, do not smoke in the dorm.

因为如果能够采取适当的预防措施，大部分的这些灾难原本是可以避免的，所以学生应该更好地接受控制火灾的重要性以及措施的知识。以下三个警告对我们学生尤其重要：第一，学会如何使用灭火器。第二，仔细检查蜡烛，热水器，炉具及其他电器，并确保在离开房间之前没有明火。最后，不要在寝室内吸烟。



学生安全教育 Students safety education

Take care of ourselves! Chinese Education Ministry has paid close attention to self-protection education among school students because some knowledge about self-protection may help one survive in case of emergency. In my opinion, no lesson is more important than the one on personal safety. Life is fragile but can be strengthened when one is armed with enough knowledge on how to protect oneself from danger. As middle school students, we should learn some knowledge about safety. Firstly, we should always obey the traffic rules. When we go across the road, we must wait for the green light. When we go to school or go home by bike, we should go along the right side and should not ride at a high speed. Secondly, in order to avoid fire in our dormitory, we should not use any electric device without permission. Thirdly, we should not climb the fence of the school in case that we might hurt ourselves. It is high time that we should be aware of the importance of self-protection. And only with a good sense of self-protection can we live a safe and happy life!

照顾自己！我国教育部在学校学生自我保护方面的一些知识，在突发事件的情况下，可以帮助一个生存的自我保护教育的密切关注。在我看来，没有什么比个人安全更重要。生命是脆弱的，但是当你有足够的知识去保护自己免遭危险的时候，你会得到加强。作为中学生，我们应该学习一些关于安全的知识。首先，我们应该遵守交通规则。当我们穿过马路时，我们必须等待绿灯。当我们去学校或骑自行车回家，我们应该沿着正确的一面，不应该骑在高速。其次，为了避免在我们宿舍发生火灾，我们不应该使用任何未经许可的电子设备。第三，我们不应该爬上围墙的学校，以的情况下，我们可能会伤害自己。是时候让我们意识到自我保护的重要性了。只有很好的自我保护意识，我们才能过上安全、幸福的生活！
