【題目】We all know the dangers of fires. It's good and necessary for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are some suggestions.

Put a smoke alarm(火警)in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.

Make escape(逃脫)plans. We should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire,everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.

Buy fire extinguishers(滅火器)in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to use them.

Practice for a fire. We do fire practice because we teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules:

Don't open a hot door!The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door.

Stay close to the floor!Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises.

What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn?First,stop!Don't run!The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop!Fall to the floor. Then roll!Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket(毯子)around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.

【題目】A boy without ears was often laughed at at school,so he often asked his parents to graft(移植)a pair of ears for him.

One day a doctor said to the boy's father that he could graft a pair of ears for his son,if they could be offered.Two years went by.Then,“You are going to the hospital,son.Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need.But it's a secret,” said the father.

The operation was a brilliant success.Later the boy married and entered the diplomatic service(外交部).“But I must know who gave so much to me.I could never do enough for him.”“But the agreement was that you are not to know,not yet,”said the father.The years kept their secret,but the day did come,one of the darkest days that ever passed through his son.Slowly,the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick,reddishbrown hair to show that the mother had no ears.

“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut,”he whispered gently,“and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful,did they?”
