When a fire begins, we must tell the firemen. Do you know how to do this? Go to the nearest telephone and dial the number 119. When someone speaks, tell him about the fire. Speak slowly and clearly. A fire engine will arrive quickly. The firemen know what to do. They have long ladders to reach the high windows. They try their best to rescue the people who can't go out.
If some people are hurt, they will be taken to a hospital in an ambulance. After all the people have been saved, the firemen put out the fire. Sometimes it is very difficult because some people put things in corridors and on stairs. Then the firemen can't get past to put out the fire. If you want to be a fireman, you must be strong and healthy. A fireman has to be able to carry heavy things. He has to be able to climb ladders and to work in high places. So he also has to be brave.
