Escaping (逃) from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save a life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, for example, you can use stairways, roofs and fire escapes, but no lifts.
From the lower floors of buildings, to escape through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by a window with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average (平均) person, hanging from the window by the fingertips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground--about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful while you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low next to the window to be sure you get fresh air.
On the second or third floor, the best windows to escape from are those which open onto a roof (屋顶) . From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely.
【小题1】You can try to escape a fire except _____.
| A．fire escapes | B．lifts | C．roofs | D．stairways |
| A．of no use when a fire breaks out |
| B．useful in putting out a fire |

| A．to keep your head high will help you to escape a fire |
| B．it is necessary to keep the door open |
| C．fresh air can’t reach the second floor window |
| D．breathing in smoke might be bad |
【小题1】B
【小题2】D
【小题3】A
【小题4】D
解析1. B 细节题。从you can use stairways, roofs and fire escapes, but no lifts可知不能使用电梯，故选B。
2. D 根据第二段to escape through windows is possible可知窗户是逃生的一种方法。
3. A 原文意思是说从较短的距离跳下去比呆在着火的建筑物里更安全，结合选项A正确。B与原文不符，C说二楼太高也不对，D说是唯一的方法也不对。
4. D 细节题的考查。从Keep your head low next to the window知道：要把头保持低于窗户而非抬头，故A错；从Be sure to keep the door closed可知要关门而不是开门，故B错；C答案也不对，从next to the window to be sure you get fresh air可知可以得到新鲜的空气，故选D。

Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs. They loved each other and played together so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their houses.
One evening, Brownie’s family noticed that their dog hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him, but with no success. Brownie didn’t show up the next day, and by the next week he was still missing.
Curiously, Spotty showed up at Brownie’s house alone. He barked loudly. But busy with their own lives, Brownie’s family just ignored (忽略) their neighbor’s nervous little dog.
Finally, one morning Spotty refused to take “no” for an answer. He followed Ted, Brownie’s owner, everywhere he went. He barked, then rushed towards a nearby empty lot and back, as if to say, “ Follow me!”
Finally, Ted followed the dog across the empty lot. The dog led the man to a tree a half-mile from the house. There Ted found Brownie alive. One of his legs was crushed (夹住) in a trap. Ted wished he had taken Spotty’s earlier appeals (求助) seriously.
Then Ted noticed something amazing. In a circle around the injured dog, he saw a lot of dog food. They were the remains of lots of meals.
Spotty had been visiting Brownie every day. He had stayed with Brownie to protect him, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him warm and nuzzling(用鼻子爱抚) him to keep his spirits up.

A．Brownie and Spotty didn’t like their owners.
