Pre-test Part I. True or False Instruction: If the statement is true, write T, and write X if it is false. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

13. 14. 15. The smoke from a fire will fill a room from the top down, leaving the best air for breathing down near the floor. When reporting a fire over a telephone, you should first give the address of the building or the house on fire, then your name and a brief description of the fire. Materials that receive the heat of spotlights and floodlights should either be non-flammable or be treated to make them fireproof. To get out of a burning building or house, you should jump out of a window. Trying to put out the fire is the most important thing you can do if you are in a building or house that is on fire. Because candle can be dangerous, it is better to use flashlight in an emergency. If your clothing catches fire, the worst thing to do is run. Closing the door to a room that is on fire will help buy time for the people in the building to safety escape. There is no need for homeowners to check chimneys and fireplaces built of stone and bricks. When eating at a restaurant or staying at a hotel or friends house, it is a good idea to check where the exit doors are. A good habit is to unplug your electric iron immediately when an interruption occurs such as a phone call or someone at the door. Fire drills at home are as important as fire drills at school. In case of fire in your home, you should have planned at least two ways out of your house. Once outside a building or house that is on fire, you should never go back in for any reason. In case of fire and other emergencies, dial 117.
