What if there was a fire where you live?Would you know what to do?Here are what you should remember:
1.Use a fire extinguisher(滅火器)
2.Know your way out.
An escape(逃離)plan can help you get out of a burning house.Your first choice is to go through the door that leads outside.But even windows on a higher floor can be safe except exits if you have help.Make sure you only do this in an emergency ( 緊急情況) Families even have ladders that can be used to escape from upper floors of a house.But you must know how it works.
3.If you're in a room with the door closed.
If you don't see smoke and the door is not hot,you can open the door very carefully and slowly.If there's no smoke or hot air when you open the door,go out.
4.Stay low.
In a fire,you should drop to the floor and crawl(爬行) below the smoke.Smoke hurts more people than fires do.Put a wet towel(毛巾 ) on your nose and mouth when you walk through the house.
5.If your clothes catch fire.
If your clothes catch fire,don't run!Instead,stop,drop to the ground,cover your face with your hands,and roll(滾).An easy way to remember this is:Stop,Drop,and Roll!
Never play with matches,lighters,or other five sources (火源).Also stay away from fireplaces,and candles.We hope you'll be doing important work-preventing fires the first place!
