If you are inside:

If you are outside:
●Move away from buildings and streetlights. These could fall on you.
●Squat (蹲下) and protect your head until the shaking stops.
After the earthquake:
●Check, take care of injuries (损伤) and help make sure people around you are all right.
●Watch out for aftershocks.
