More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.\nThe villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money they'd just had to buy pesticides and medicine. Soon there was no money left.\nThen the people realized that what was happening. It was the frogs. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job--eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, soon there were more and more insects.

Professor Benjamin Senauer is absolutely certain of the reasons for this.\n\"Japanese people are fit.

This is probably because such buildings are taken good care of and managed. However, at home after work fire safety is your own duty.\nFor most of us who live in high-rise buildings, the safety of you and your family depends on how much you know to do with an emergency . When a fire happens, there is usually little time to decide what to do or how to act. The best thing is to make your emergency plan as soon as possible.\nSit down with the family and prepare a careful escape project. Do remember that every fire is _ . Fire and smoke can move very quickly and the situations in any part of the building may change very quickly. Smoke is usually more dangerous than fire. It can spread throughout the building and enter your house when the fire is many floors away.\nSome information says it is best to leave your house immediately when there is a fire. Others say it is safer to stay there. Which is correct?\nUsually the best thing to do is to leave the building as soon as possible. However, do not try to leave your house a long time after the fire alarm has sounded.
