Fire can be very frightening, but don’t worry...

Fire can be very frightening, but don’t worry. If a fire starts in your home, stay calm. Having a plan could save your life.

Part 1

If you are woken up by the sound of your smoke alarm, remember:

STOP—THINK—ACT

♦ Stay calm. Wake up all of the members of your family.

♦ Find a way to the nearest exit. Never use the lift.

♦ If the door feels hot, DO NOT open it.

♦ When you are safe outside, call the fire service at once.

♦ Don’t go back to the house for any reason until the fireman tells you it is safe to return.

If you can’t find a way out, you must use the second part of the plan.

Part 2

If you have to go through a smoke-filled hallway or room, go down on all fours (四肢着地).

♦ Find a window that you can go through，and get all the family into the room.

♦ Always pass children down first.

♦ Remember—NEVER JUMP!

Practice your plan with your family at home. It could help to save your lives.

Fire can help people in many ways. But can also be very harmful. Fire can heat water warm your houses, give light, and cook food. But fire can burn things too. It can burn trees, houses, animals, or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forests.

Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting, old stories about the first time a man or woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man very, very long time ago. He went up to the sun by a rope and brought fire down.

Today people know how to make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. One match can burn a piece of paper, and then it might burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire very fast.

Fires kill many people every year. So you must be careful with matches. You should also learn to put out fires. Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is oxygen in the air. Cover a fire with water, sand, or in an emergency, with your coat or something else. This keeps the air away from a fire and kills it.

Be careful with fire, and it will help you. Be careless with fire, and it will burn you.

It can make trees, houses, animals and other things catch fire (起火). If some people can't run away from fire, it can kill them. This happens in every country every year.

Sometimes big fire can burn forests. A month ago, a large forest fire broke out in Yunnan Province. It lasted nearly half a month. The forest in Heilongjiang Province and the grassland in Inner Mongolia caught fire in May, 2006. After more than ten days' fight, over 30,000 people and soldiers put out (扑灭) the fire at last.

Nobody knows clearly when people began to make fire, but there are many interesting stories about the first time a man or a woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man who went to the sun and brought fire down a long time ago. Today people know how to make a fire with matches (火柴). Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. The match can burn a piece of paper and then it can burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire, and destroy many things. Fire kills many people every year. So you must be careful with fire.
