Practice 4

Read the speech below carefully and answer the questions that follow.

Good morning, pupils. Today, I would like to talk about safety precautions while staying
home alone. Staying home alone can be risky. A safe precaution for you is to keep the doors
and window locked. Although it is unlikely that someone might break in, it is better to be safe
than sorry. You should also decide with your parents on what to do in case the phone rings
or if there is someone knocking at the door when you are alone at home.
Apart from that, you might also have some other kinds of emergencies such as an
overflowing toilet, a fire or even you or your siblings getting injured. Hence, you should know:
• the emergency numbers
• your address and contact number
• the name, address, and contact number of your parents’ workplace, of your trusted neighbour
and of another emergency contact person such as your grandparents or family’s friend
Staying alone can be dangerous. However, if you are prepared, you should be safe.
