Firefighter Regina Wilson works in Brooklyn, New York. A reporter is asking Regina questions about how she does her job.
Reporter: How long have you been a firefighter?
Wilson: Eight years.
Reporter: How did you get started?
Wilson: First, I had to take a lot of tests. Then, I went to firefighting school for 13 weeks. I learned how to put out fires and how to use equipment (设备).
Reporter: How do you stay safe on the job?
Wilson: I wear special clothing called bunker gear. It helps keep me safe from fire. I also carry an oxygen tank (氧气罐) and a mask (面罩).
They help me to breathe in a smoke-filled building.

Reporter: What do you like best about being a firefighter?
Wilson: Helping people!
