With the continuous improvement of people's cognitive level, the choice of buying a house is becoming more and more practical and safe, among which safety is particularly important. However, there are still some misconceptions about the impact of disasters.

Many people mistakenly believe that in order to avoid the impact of **, a low-rise house should be purchased in order to be in the first place.

The first and second floors can escape in time. But in reality, this idea is not correct. When it comes, people often don't have enough time to escape as they do in rehearsals. In addition, even on the lower floors, it is more difficult to escape due to problems such as the solidity of the house. If the building is not particularly earthquake-resistant, it will collapse faster, which in turn will make the low-rise residents more dangerous. For high-rise residents, the choice of escape method is also more complicated. If you choose to escape by elevator, you may encounter a situation where the elevator stops running or even falls suddenly. When escaping via stairs, it is also difficult to ensure safety due to time and the risk of stepping on it.

In fact, the safest place should be the central area of the building. Middle-rise residents do not have to worry about the fall of the building caused by the collapse of the foundation, and the escape speed is faster, and there are multiple escape methods. At the same time, when rescuers arrive, middle-level residents are more likely to be rescued as soon as possible. In addition, the middle layer is least affected during the transmission of **.

Therefore, when choosing to buy a house for disaster protection, the best option is to buy a mid-rise house. These areas are better able to protect our lives and provide more opportunities for escape in the event of a disaster. However, as a kind of natural disaster, whether we can escape from it depends on our own emergency response capabilities. Only by taking the right steps can we find a chance at survival.

When it happens, it's crucial to keep a calm mind. You can't panic because of a sudden **, but choose escape measures according to the situation. If you can't escape in time when you're indoors, find sturdy cover immediately to protect important areas such as your head and neck, and avoid areas near fragile obstacles such as windows. If we are outdoors, we have to take shelter in the open area, not stand under buildings, and start using communication tools to contact rescuers and start working while ensuring our own safety.

In addition to choosing the right building area, it is also very necessary to learn Xi corresponding escape knowledge, so we must pay attention to the learning of relevant knowledge Xi only we understand the corresponding escape knowledge, in order to better protect our personal safety, and find a chance to survive in the event of a disaster.
