Being safe in your everyday life needs knowledge（知识）. If you remember to do the following things， your life will be much safer.

* Always notice the environment around you. You shouldnt walk alone outside. Make sure where the public phones are. If anything dangerous happens， you can find them easily.

* Your bag should be carried towards the front of your body instead of putting it on your back because when a bus is full of people， it is easy enough for a thief to take away your things in the bag on your back.

* If you are followed by someone you dont know， cross the street and go to the other way， and let the person understand that you know he or she is after you. Next， dont go home at once. You are safer in the street than you are alone in your home or in a lift（电梯）.

* If you have to take a bus to a place far away， dont get to the stop too early and just get there a few minutes earlier before the bus leaves. This stops other people from studying you. On the bus， dont sit alone. Sit behind the driver or with other people. Dont sleep.
