exact (3) _____________ of climate patterns such as El Nino and La Nina.
According to the Office of US Foreign Disaster Assistance, the total natural disasters reported each year
have been steadily increasing in recent (4) _____________. In 1980, there were only about 100 hydro-

Exercise 2. Read the passage and decide if each statement is True (T) or False (F).
Natural disasters are some things that can happen in nature that can be very dangerous. They can include
things like hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods. These events can cause a lot of damage to
houses and buildings and even hurt people and
animals. It's important to know what to do if a natural disaster happens, like listening to warnings or
finding a safe place to go. Remember, it's always better to be prepared than caught off guard!

There are a number of things you can do to stay safe during an earthquake. If you are indoors, you must
stay away from windows, glass, or anything that could fall, such as lighting. Then, take cover by getting
under a stable table or something hard and wait until the quake stops. Don’t attempt to run outside during
the quake because you may get badly injured. If you are outdoors during an earthquake, stay there, and
move away from buildings and street lights because they may fall upon you at any time. And if you are in a
moving vehicle during an earthquake, stop as quickly as possible and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping
near trees, buildings, and utility wires. Lastly, if you are trapped under debris, try to cover your mouth with
a handkerchief or clothing. Don’t keep shouting. Don’t light a match or move around; you may kick up
dust. You should tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you.
