Everyone needs to know how to prevent a fire. It is also important to know what to do when it {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (break)out.

    Every year, over 11，000 people {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (kill)or injured in house fires. These fires could have been avoided. Smokers who are {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (care)cause about 200 deaths and over 6,000 fires. More than of those {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  die in fires are poisoned or harmed by smoke.

    If fire happens, do not attempt to fight the fire unless it is small. Try putting out a small fire with water. If {#blank#}5{#/blank#} fire has spread or if the flames are more than 20 inches high, shut the door on it. Warn everyone else in the building and tell them to get out. You should leave and dial 911 for the fire department.

    Before {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (go)into a room，check the door. If the handle or the door is hot, do not open it! Instead, put clothing or a wet towel at the bottom of it to keep smoke out. If the door is not hot, open it  {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (slow)．If there is a rush of smoke heat, close it again and shout to warn {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (other)inside.

    Now open the window and shout “Fire!”. See whether you can drop safely to the ground. Use this {#blank#}9{#/blank#} your escape course if you can. If you are not on ground level, break your fall by pushing a mat out first. Lower yourself at arm's {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (long) before dropping. Once outside, stay out outside and make sure the fire department is called.

—Why me ? Mike is sitting there doing nothing.

    The party began shortly after nine. Mr. Wood, who lived in the flat below, sighed to himself as he heard {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (excite) voices and the noisy music. Luckily, he had brought some work home from the office, with {#blank#}2{#/blank#} he kept himself busy for a couple of hours, thus managing to pay no attention {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the noise overhead. But by eleven o'clock he felt tired and was ready to go to bed though from his {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (early) experience he knew it was no use {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (try) to get to sleep. He undressed and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (lie) for a while in bed, trying to read, but he found himself reading the same page over and over again. He then turned off {#blank#}7{#/blank#} light and buried his head in the pillow. But even so he could not shut off the noise. Finally, after {#blank#}8{#/blank#} seemed hours, his patience was gone.

    He jumped out of bed, put on some clothing, marched firmly up the stairs, and walked into his neighbor's apartment. The owner of the apartment came across the room and, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} Mr. Wood could say anything, cried, “My dear fellow, come and join us. I know our parties would trouble you. I meant to send you an invitation.” Mr. Wood's anger disappeared then and there. He said, “I'd better go and get changed.” Minutes later, he returned, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (proper) dressed, only to find that the party was nearly over.

    Once a young man was passing by a street where he saw an old man sitting by the roadside {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (beg) for money. That old man was sitting there with {#blank#}2{#/blank#} empty bowl in front of him, and a cardboard sign was put up beside the bowl. There was a sentence {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (write) on the cardboard: "Blind-Please help!"

    The young man felt very bad that no one planned {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (give) him any money. So he went to the old man and took his cardboard in his hand. He then took a thick marker pen out of his pocket and re-wrote the sign without hesitation and then left. The old man noticed that someone was writing something {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (differ) on the board but didn't say anything.

    Just in a few minutes, that empty bowl {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (fill) with money. The old man noticed that and stopped a stranger and asked him {#blank#}7{#/blank#} was on that cardboard. The stranger replied, "It says, "It's a beautiful day. You can see it. I cannot." Our {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (choose) of words and language can create positive or negative effects {#blank#}9{#/blank#} others. If we choose the right words, then we can {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (true) connect with people and change their views.

    A British insurance company recently asked 1,000 people {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (vote) on the most romantic letter. A letter by musician Johnny Cash to his wife June Carter Cash {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (win) first place.

    Some say it is not the most romantic letter ever {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (write). But Johnny and June's long life together was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (evident) of their strong relationship. They married in 1968 and stayed {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (marry) until June Carter Cash died in 2003. Johnny Cash died four months later.

    Here is his love letter to June：

    "We get old and get used to each other. We think alike. We read each other's minds. We know {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the other wants without asking. Sometimes we annoy each other a little bit. Maybe sometimes take each other for granted. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} once in a while, like today, I meditate on it and realize how {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (luck) I am to share my life with the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(great) woman I ever met."— Johnny Cash.

    The letter {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is simple and heartfelt, gives the best advice when writing a letter to the one you love - write from the heart and keep it real.
