Fires kill thousands of people every year. Learn what to do in case a fire breaks out. Here are some rules to follow at home.

　　The first thing to do is to make an escape (逃脫) plan. In a fire, smoke and flames (火焰) may block stairs or a hallway. Plan a way to get out of each room in your home. You may have to climb out through a window. At night, sleep with the door closed.

　　Don't try to fight a fire yourself. Get away from the fire and call the fire department. Test a door with your hands before you open it. Don't open a door that is warm. Use another way out.

　　Many fires start in a kitchen. A pan of grease (油) may catch fire. Put a lid (蓋) on the pan and turn off the stove. Never use water on a grease fire because water will spread the fire.

　　What a cold winter! How wonderful it would be if there was a fire! Fire keeps us warm．But fire is very dangerous, and can kill us．

　　November 9 was National Fire Safety Day．It's a time for us to learn a lot more about fire, especially(特別是)what to do if we are caught in a fire．

　　If you smell smoke or see fire, shout out“Fire”! Shout(大喊)as loudly as you can, because people may be asleep．

　　Never try to put out a fire yourself, even if it is a very small one! Get help from your parents or call 1－1－9．Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire．Listen to 119's instructions(指導)．

　　If there is a lot of smoke in your room, keep down close to the floor．There is less smoke down there, so it's easier to breathe(呼吸)and see where you are going．If you don't, the smoke may kill you before the fire does．

　　Test the door before you open it．Touch it with the back of your hand near the top．If the door is cool, open it carefully．If the door is hot, do not open it! Try to find a different way out．

　　Most home fires start at night when people are asleep．So, always close your bedroom door before sleep．It can keep the fire out．

　　If you can, get out of your home as soon as you can．Do not stop to pick up anything．A fire can become very big in a few seconds!

　　Never use the lift during a fire．Always use the stairs．A lift may stop at a floor where the fire is burning．It may also go wrong and keep you inside．

　　Never go back into a burning building! Even if you have left your pet of favorite toy inside, do not go back for it．Don't worry about your pets．Animals have a very good sense of smell．They often get out of building before people!

1．If you smell smoke or see fire, what will you do?

2．What should people use during a fire．the lift or the stairs?

閱讀理解，閱讀下列短文，從各題所給的A、B、C和D項中選出最佳選項。

　　Lightning(閃電)is shocking, and it happens all over the world! Scientists think that there are more than three million lightning strikes(襲擊)every day in the world-that's thirty strikes every second．

　　Lightning can also be very dangerous．Every year, lightning kills people because it can start big fires or because it reaches temperatures up to 28, 000 degrees centigrade．American Roy Sullivan, who worked in a park, holds the record for surviving the most lightning strikes．Between 1942 and 1983, he was hit seven times!

　　So, why does lightning strike? Lightning strikes happen when ice and water in clouds rub(摩擦)together, and cause atmospheric(大氣層的)changes．When this happens, it creates a static charge(靜電電荷)．Lightning can strike inside the cloud, between two clouds and between a cloud and Earth．It's the last type of strike that is the most dangerous for humans．About 1, 000 people get struck by lightning every year in the United States, and about 100 of them die as a result．

　　Lightning is certainly not something to toy with．When lightning strikes, it's best to stay inside a large building．To stay safe, do not stand under trees, on hills or near water．Trees attract lightning．Also, do not lie down on the ground, otherwise the electricity may go through you and cause a heart disease．

[　　]

A．
