Getdo:(Panicking) Oh no! The ground is shaking! What's happening?
Namkhing: Try to stay calm. Don't worry, it's an earthquake! During an earthquake, the earth suddenly moves. The energy travels through the ground, causing buildings to sway and cracks to form.
Getdo : (Looking around) Look! That building is shaking! What happens during an earthquake?
Namkhing : Well, sometimes buildings collapse, water pipes break, and power lines snap. It's really dangerous. But don't worry, rescuers work hard to save people buried under the rubble.
Getdo : How do they find them?
Namkhing : They use dogs! Dogs have an amazing sense of smell and can detect people trapped under the rubble. They're like heroes!
Getdo : Wow, that's incredible! But are earthquakes only dangerous because of collapsing buildings?
Namkhing : No, earthquakes can cause other disasters too. They can start fires, trigger landslides, and even create tsunamis. That's why it's important to stay safe during an earthquake and follow the instructions of experts.
Getdo : I never knew earthquakes could be so dangerous. We should always be prepared, just in case.
Namkhing : Absolutely! It's better to be safe than sorry. Let's make sure we have an emergency plan and supplies ready.
