e.g.The government warned travelers to
Africa about the disease there.
2.Do not jump out of high buildings.
jump out of表示“从......跳出”。
e.g.Please don't jump out of the window.
请别从窗子往外跳。
run out of表示“从......跑出”。
climb out of表示“从 ......爬出”。
3.Keep calm,especially when you are with other people.
keep表示“保持”，calm表示“冷静，沉着”。
keep calm是系动词+形容词构成的动词短语。
其他的行为动词还能做系动词的有：become,feel,look,seem等。
e.g.Everybody became quiet.
    He looked a little nervous.
4.In shor,follow what you learnt in school.
