The conflict always involves a challenge or difficulty that the characters face. The conclusion is the end of the story, where the problem in Part 2 has been solved.

If you see someone choking, first call the emergency services. Then, make sure that the victim is really choking: A choking person cannot speak. Slapping the victim’s back will often force out the obstruction. If this does not work, you can perform the Heimlich manoeuvre by standing behind him and wrapping your arms around his waist. Make a fist with one hand and place it in the upper part of his stomach. Grabbing your fist with your other hand tightly, push up and into his stomach in one motion. Continue doing this until the obstruction is forced out.
Read the 4th and find out the verbs used to describe how to deal with choking.

Drafting your work: structure
One morning, David was working home while watching his infant daughter Jane crawling on the floor. Suddenly, he noticed that she had picked something up and put it in her mouth. Then she began to move like she was struggling. He quickly jumped from his chair and ran over and picked her up. She now had a frightened look on her face with her lips turning blue. However, she was not crying or making a sound.
He carefully opened her mouth to see if there was obstruction. Not finding anything, he then laid her face down on his lap and gave her a few firm slaps to her back. It worked! Within seconds a small button fell from her mouth onto the floor, and she was breathing once again. Thanks to David’s quick thinking, Jane was saved.
David now teaches life-saving techniques at the local college, and he uses this story to impress upon students the need for quick action. “When seconds count,” he said, “an ambulance is often minutes away.”
