hi everyone my name is Bridget and
welcome to today's lesson the topic of
today's lesson is ten phrases to help
you in an emergency let's get started
call the police please if you are
telling someone to call the police it
means you're telling someone to dial
nine-one-one to call the police or maybe
there's police nearby and you tell
someone hey call the police
the police are there to help you in any
situation that you might need them
maybe you're lost maybe you lost your
purse or your wallet maybe you've been
in a car accident the police will help
you so if you tell someone call the
police please it means you need them to
get the police for you do you have a
fever do you have a fever if you are
asking someone if they have a fever
you are asking them if their temperature
is higher than is normal or safe if
someone has a fever that may mean they
have an underlying condition that needs
medical attention a fever may be a
symptom of something much more serious
it's something you should always take
seriously so if someone has a fever you
may want to take that person to the
hospital I lost my passport I lost my
passport if you have lost your passport
it means you have lost the official
document with all of your information
that enables you to travel between
countries if you are in a foreign
country and you lose your passport
that's a very serious thing because you
may be stuck in that country if you're
not able to present a passport at the
airport you may not be able to go back
home or go to another country so if you
lose your passport you may need to call
your Embassy to get a replacement what I
like to do when I travel is I take
photocopies of my
passport so instead of carrying around
my physical passport instead I just
carry around copies of it so that my
