Answer:
1. We should stay away from lamp posts during an earthquake as they may fall on and injure people.
2. If someone tries to wade through floodwaters, he/she can be dragged with the current of the water; floodwaters also have a lot of debris (moving at high speeds), chemicals etc. which can cause injuries, diseases etc.
3. An earthquake is a tremor in the Earth's crust while a tsunami is a series of huge waves, a result of an underwater earthquake/volcanic eruption.
4. Trees can absorb excess water, run-offs etc. This water is then evaporated into the air, resulting in rain and eliminating droughts.
