      Fire fighting is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save people’s lives.

      It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone else in the family such as stairways and exits,but no lifts. From the lower floors of buildings,escaping (逃跑) through windows is possible. Learn the best way to get out from a window with the least chance of serious injury (受傷) . The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. It will be about 2 metres to the ground. Of course ? it is safer to jump a short way down than to stay in a burning building.
