“Fire! Fire!” Students were running out of their classroom. They used some wet clothes to cover their mouths and noses. Was there a fire? No, it was just a fire drill(演習(xí)). On November 26th 2018, students of a middle school in Changsha learned some safety skills when a fire broke out.

What can we do to make our houses safer? Here are some suggestions. When you get your phone or computer charged (充電) .don’t put your phone or computer chargers (充電器) on your books or bed. And you should not charge for too long. Don’t use candles in your bedroom. Check to see if you have broken wires(電線) in your house, and change them at once. Always remember to turn off the lights when you leave your house.

What should we do if we are caught in a burning building? If the fire is big, stay low and get out quickly. Use wet clothes to cover your mouth and nose. Always use stairs and don’t use elevators(電梯), because elevators may break down anytime. If the room is full of smoke, keep close to the floor where the air is cleaner and cooler. Once help arrives, wave the flashlight or cloth at the window to let the firefighters know where you are.

It is very important for schools to train the students to get to know about some safety skills when a fire breaks out or when an earthquake happens, because no one knows what accident will happen next minute. If the schools are able to do more drills like this, fewer deaths and injuries will happen in our life.
