올바른 표현

• 地震发生后，废墟中仍有幸存者在断断续续地发出呼救声，救援人员争分夺秒，全力搜寻每一个生命迹象。(After the earthquake, survivors in the rubble continued to cry out for help intermittently; rescue workers raced against the clock, searching with all their might for any sign of life.)
• 徒步者在偏远山区迷路时，应优先使用哨子或反光镜等工具发出呼救信号，而非消耗体力大声喊叫。(When hikers become lost in remote mountainous areas, they should prioritise using tools such as whistles or signal mirrors to call for help, rather than expending energy shouting.)

피해야 할 표현

• 呼救 for non-emergency situations where one merely needs assistance — use 求助 for general help-seeking; 呼救 specifically connotes a life-threatening or urgent emergency
