Dear readers,
Once, I had to call the firefighters to put out a fire. I still remember how fast it made my heart beat, it was a small fire. I was glad and thankful when the firefighters put it out(quick).
Firefighters help in all kinds of sudden serious and(danger) events or situations. I saw firefighters carrying people from their flooded homes while(watch) the news today. Often, they are the first helpers whenaccident happens. Some firefighters train to help people and pets that fall into frozen lakes. To prepare for real-life rescue like this one, they must practice puttingice suits, working with ropes, and using hand signals to communicate. If you want to learn more about these(/breıv/) men and women, read the article
Danger! Rescue on Thin Ice.
Where would we be without the first helpers? Maybe you'll (/dЗэıun/) me this month in finding a way to thank them. Giving a card, a drawing, or a plate of cookies to your local fire(/'steıƒn/) could be the start of a new tradition for your families and our(hero)will be thankful for it.
Happy holidays!
Your friend,
Christine
