Question

Long ago, there were no firemen. When fire broke out, everybody became a firefighter.
People formed human chains (they still do if required) and passed buckets of water from a
well or a pond to the blaze. Now there are laws about building construction which ensure that
space is left between buildings to reduce the fire risk. Every new building, especially a public
place, must ensure observance of fire prevention norms. Bands of firefighting workers with
special equipment, known as fire brigades, are there to put out fires. Firefighters are highly
trained people. They possess many skills. They cut off electricity supply, knock down
dangerous walls, spray water and other materials to bring fire under control.
