If i were in the same situation, i would try to stand on the same place and do not move until the polar bear is far away from me. Because the bear maybe think that i'm not a living thing.
also i will not run away becase the bear can run fast than me.

I were them, I would sleep on the floor and try to find the chance to escape,because I've heard that bear won't eat died body.
Or I would made friend with the polar bear, because polar bear can swim,it could help me to exit the cracking thin ice.

If I were in the same situation, I would try to be a friend with the polar bear, play with it everyday. I should have been to the bear. However, I would have a plan stealthily, in order to kill the bear one day. If I make friend with it, it would trust me and would not have a strong suspicion about me. Collecting some woods, ground the wood to look like a saw. I would finish the work as soon as possible, therefore, I could back home quickly. Because I had left home for a long time and my family might miss me. After I killed the bear, I would back home with its skin. And I could in the newspapers or on television because of my brave and clever.

If i were in the same situation,i think i should run as fast as possible.Then, find one place where only have one exit and use a lot of stones to block the exit.When anything is ready,i would make a phone call to the police since the place can receive the signals.If can't telephone to anybody,I should stay at there for a night and wait the polar bear go to other places.

If I were them, I would go to a safty place first, so it cannot find me. Unfortunately, if it could find me, I would try to make friend with the polar, otherwise I am scared that it would kill me.

If I were in the same situation like them, I would run as soon as possible and try to go to a safe place that the polar bear could not find me. Then, I would try to find people to help me and give advice to them. However, I wouldn't do some actions to frighten the polar bear since it might kill me or I might get hurt from it.

If I were them,I would try to make friend with the polar bear and would not carry out any action in order to let the polar bear knew I were friendly to it.
If the polar bear still approaching to me,I would run away immediately!

If I were one of the characters, I would run to some place which has walruses, and hunters. It is because they are polar bears¡¦ enemies and a polar bear's sense of smell is very keen. It can smell a seal and walrus from 20 miles away. Polar bear's eye sight is better than other bears.
. Therefore, the polar bears will run away.

I would yell out for help and make a fighting action to make the polar bear feel afraid and so it wouldn't hurt me for the moment to wait for other people to save me.

I will try to cry for help.if it is useless,i will try to draw away the big polar bear,so that my friends can escape.
Samantha Law 2006-07-09
I think I will run away form the cracking area to a more safety place. Because if we stay in the cracking thin ice for longer time, the thin ice cannot withstand our weight and it crack faster. We and the polar bear will fall in dangerous.

I will try to make friend with them.If them try to attack me , I will run away
