Ⅰ. 阅读理解

Most home fires occur in the kitchen while cooking and are the leading cause of injuries from fire. Common causes of fires at night can be particularly dangerous because they may burn slowly for a long period before being discovered.

Home fires are preventable! The following are simple steps that each of us can take to prevent a tragedy.

Cooking

Stay in the kitchen when you are cooking especially frying. If you leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, turn off the stove.

Do not cook if you are sleepy, or have been drinking alcohol. Keep children away from cooking areas. Smoking

If you smoke, smoke outside. Most home fires caused by smoking materials start inside the home. Put your cigarettes out in a can filled with sand.

Make sure cigarettes and ashes are out. The cigarette really needs to be completely put out in an ashtray or in water before your throwing them away.

Check for cigarette butts. Don't put ashtrays on chairs and sofas because they catch fire fast. Never smoke in a home where oxygen is used, even if it is turned off.

Children

Take the mystery out of fire play by teaching children that fire is a tool, not a toy.

Store matches and lighters out of children's reach and sight, preferably in a locked box.

Teach children not to pick up matches or lighters they may find. Instead, they should tell an adult immediately.

Electrical Equipment, Fireplaces and Woodstoves

Replace all worn, old or damaged wires immediately and do not run wires under rugs or furniture.

Examine and clean woodstove pipes and chimneys yearly and check monthly for damage.

Never burn trash, paper, or green wood.

Make sure the fire is completely out before leaving the house or going to bed.
