People know the danger of fires. It' s good for a family to learn how to prepare for
a fire. Here are some suggestions:
Put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off.
The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.
They should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire, everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.
Buy fire extinguishers(灭火器)and put them in the house. Besides, family members should know how to use them.
Practice for a fire. We do fire practices because we need to teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules:
*Don' t open a hot door!
*Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises.
* What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First, stop! Don' t run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. Then roll! Put a wet blanket(毯子) around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.
