听一分钟英文：Emergencies-紧急情况

Are you a good person to have around in an emergency¹? I am, I think. I have a very cool head and I don’t panic² easily. The most important thing to do in an emergency is stay calm. If you do this, you can think straight and decide what’s best to do. Also, if you stay calm, other people might stay calm too. The worst thing to do is panic. Once you panic, things become worse. Of course, it depends on the kind of emergency. For really serious emergencies³, you should call the emergency services. That’s 999 in the UK or 911 in other parts of the world. My biggest emergency recently was a big one. I pressed the delete⁴ button and lost my 3,000 songs in iTunes. Luckily, I had a back-up.
