Plants and animals are living things. But plants cant move around. They cant walk the way animals do. So how do flowers grow here and there all over the grass? The seeds of plants move. Thats how.

Some plants have very light seeds. The wind moves them from place to place. They seem to fly. They can be taken far by the wind. Then they start new plants where the wind puts them down.

Some trees are found near the sea. The seeds of these trees fall into the water. Then the water takes them away. They may stay in the water for many days. Then the water pushes them up on new ground. There they begin to grow.

Some seeds are sticky (黏性的). They may stick to mens hats or womens coats. Then these people see them. They pick them off, or the seeds may stick to birds. The birds go from tree to tree. They shake the seeds off. All these seeds fall to the ground and start new plants.

Other animals help plant seeds, too. Squirrels make holes in the ground to store nuts for food in winter. Nuts are seeds. Sometimes the squirrels cant think of where they put the nuts. Then they cant find them. When it gets hot again, these seeds start new trees. So the squirrels have really planted trees!

Once every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But dont worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few hurt people.

But many earthquakes happen in China, so it is important to know what to do when one hits. In Japan, teens are given lessons on earthquake safety because many happen there. Here are the National Earthquake Bureaus (國家地震局) top tips on how to stay safe in an earthquake.

1. If you are indoors during an earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.

2. If you are outdoors, try to move away from buildings and streetlights. These could fall on you.

3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, do not run outside. Everyone will be doing that and you will find it hard getting out. Hide under a desk. Dont get into a lift during an earthquake.

4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks (余震) may still happen. These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you really think it is safe to get up.

5. If you are at home and you smell gas, open a window and get out of the building quickly. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous.
