4. People who cannot swim must not play alone by the water; do not go into the water alone without the company of someone who can swim. It is best to be led by a safety officer. Swimming time should not be too long. After 20-30 minutes, you should go ashore and take a short rest.
[Common sense about self-rescue methods]
1. Self-rescue methods for people who are not familiar with water-based methods
Drowning people should not panic. They should stay calm and actively save themselves. Inhaling through the nose when swimming is the most likely to cause choking. If you choke on water, you must first open your mouth wide and take a deep breath. Even if you drink a few sips of water, you must open your mouth wide and do not inhale through your nose.
2. Self-rescue method for fatigue
In addition to calling for help, lie on your back with your head backward so that your nose can be exposed to the water for breathing. The exhalation should be shallow and the inhalation should be deep. When you take a deep breath, the specific gravity of the human body drops to slightly lighter than water, and you can surface. At this time, do not raise your arms and flutter around, as this will sink faster.
3. Self-rescue methods for cramps in water
If cramps occur while swimming, do not panic. You must stay calm, stop swimming, take a breath first, float on your back, and use different methods to save yourself according to different parts.
After cramping, use another swimming style to swim back to the shore to prevent cramping again.

[What to do if your companion falls into the water]
If you encounter a companion who falls into the water, you must not blindly go into the water to save the person or hold hands to save the person. Instead, you should shout for help and seek help from an adult in time. This is the way with the highest success rate of rescue. This is the real Helping companions. Never think that if you don't jump in to save your companion when he falls into the water, you are not a friend enough.

[Correct rescue time in mind]
1. If you encounter someone drowning, don’t panic. Call loudly as soon as possible, ask for help from an adult, and dial 110 to call the police. If there are multiple companions together, send one person to seek help from an adult.
2. Look for floating objects around you and throw them to the drowning person, such as life buoys, wooden boards, etc.; if there are no floating objects, you can also fill your schoolbag with mineral water bottles and throw them to the drowning person.
3. Find bamboo poles, branches, etc. and hand them to the person who fell into the water. You can also tie your clothes into knots and throw them to the person who fell into the water. When rescuing people, you should lie on the ground and lower your center of gravity to avoid being pulled into the water.
4. Do not jump directly into the water to rescue. Minors do not have enough ability to go into the water to rescue drowning people to avoid the tragedy of mass death and injury.
5. cannot hold hands to rescue. People who fall into the water are extremely strong. If they are not careful, they will be pulled into the water, causing the tragedy of serial drowning.
