Sample answer:
Yes, I do believe that the Emergency Medical Service and the Ambulance Team can be consid-
ered as our modern heroes, since they are the ones who rush and bet their lives for the benefit
of people especially during emergencies. They are always on the go, anytime, anywhere and in
any emergency situation, both for the rich and the poor.

3. Do you think that it’s wise to know a few of the World’s Emergency Telephone
Numbers?

Sample answer:
I honestly believe that it’s important to know our country’s local emergency number to be able
to be ready at all times from any unexpected circumstance. However, it’s wiser if we keep a list
of Worldwide Emergency Telephone Numbers, so that wherever we may be, we’ll be ready for
any emergency.
