Question

Which of the following should not be done during an earthquake?

• A. Stay under a strong table to be safe from the debris.
• B. Move away from tall buildings, trees, and streetlights.
• C. Take support of a bookshelf.
• D. Stay away from glass, doors, and windows.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Take support of a bookshelf.

During an earthquake, one must keep calm and try to run out of the house cautiously. One must stay away from glass, doors, and windows. One must stay away from anything that may fall, such as tall buildings, trees, and streetlights. Never take the support of anything that may fall over the person. If stuck inside the house, one must stay inside a strong table to avoid the debris from falling over the head.
