How Can We Protect Ourselves
Selfprotection is one of the most important skills for teenagers.But how can we protect ourselves?Here are some of my suggestions.
First,we should be careful when we make friends,especially on line.Second,if we are in danger,we must call the police for help in time so that we can keep ourselves safe.Also,we ought to eat healthily and safely.Besides,we shouldn't crowd each other when we go upstairs or downstairs at school.Last but not the least,summer is coming,we must remember it's dangerous to swim alone.
In short,everyone needs to learn how to protect ourselves and stay away from danger.
