英文小作文：

Prevention is better than cure. We should always be aware of the potential risks around us and take measures to avert them before they become a reality. For example, we should avoid crossing roads when there is no traffic light to protect ourselves from traffic accidents, and we should wear a helmet when riding a bike to prevent head injuries in case of falls. In addition, we should also take measures to protect ourselves from natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods, by building strong buildings and evacuating quickly when necessary. By doing so, we can reduce the impact of disasters on our lives and health, and ensure that we live a safer and more secure life.
