Want a part-time job? 16 It requires some training, patience and understanding of how to calm a baby when he cries. Here are some tips that may help you.
Prepare for the job. Check your calendar to make sure you are available when asked to babysit. 17 . Find out what time you will be needed, night or day, and again check to make sure you can help. If not, you can ask the person whether you can babysit another time, or babysit another child. Write down the following information: cell phone number, the address and the phone number of the place where they will be, and the child’s name, blood type, doctor’s name and doctor’s number. 18 You have to know these because you never know what will happen. You need most of the kid/baby’s medical information. Also ask where the first aid things are kept. Make sure you get all the emergency phone numbers needed. Police, ambulance, fire department and their cell phone numbers are very important and should be written clearly on the refrigerator. If they give you a grandparent’s phone number, that’s also good, because the parents might be at a shopping mall and may not be able to hear their cell phone.
19 It is better if the parents write them down because you could make a mistake when writing. This is another very important thing to do. Find out where all the things, such as baby bottles or spare clothes are kept.
Never leave the baby out of your sight! Keep the baby you’re watching in one area, so that you can make sure he is safe. If the child you are watching is older, keep him limited to the house, or if you’re outside to the backyard. 20 . All children should be kept as far away from a street as possible.
A. They are very important in an emergency.
B. Looking after a baby may be a good choice.
C. Stay calm in case an accident should happen.
D. Never answer the door unless you know who the visitor is.
E. Make sure the parents give you instructions if caring for a baby.
F. Smaller children should stay where you can see them at all times.
G. This will help avoid the frustration of a last minute change of plans.

Although the zoo 24 took good care of them, many of the 25 did not feel comfortable and they often became 26 .
In modern zoos, people can see animals in more 27 conditions. The animals are given more 28 in large places so that they can live more as they would in 29 . Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in the cages, and water flows 30 the places that the animals live in. There are few bars. 31 , there is often a deep ditch, filled with 32 , which surrounds a space where several 33 of animals live together as they would naturally. In an American zoo, the visitor can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with 34 , some small animals and many birds, and large enough for the birds to live 35 .
