因为如果能够采取适当的预防措施，大部分的这些灾难本可以避免的，所以学生应该更好地被教育控制火灾的重要性以及措施。以下三个警告对我们学生尤其重要：第一，学会如何使用灭火器。第二，仔细检查蜡烛，热水器，炉具及其他电器，并确保在离开房间之前没有明火。最后，不要在寝室内吸烟。
there was a big fire in one office building in our neighborhood at about nine4 o'clock last night. many firemen and fire engines came. in the beginning, we saw flames with thick black smoke coming out from the sixth floor; and we also heard the explosion of the gas tank mixed with the noisy sounds from shattering windows. soon the fire spread one by one to the floors above, and finally reach the top floor. some aluminum window frames and some brick walls meted and collapsed from the heat. many people like myself stood outside on the streets watching the fire in horror as we heard the sirens and gas explosions. luckily there was no one in that office building when the fire broke out. the fire-men were unable to control the fire until the top floor was burned out; it took about one and a half hours for the firemen to put out the big fire. the next morning newspapers carried the story and pictures of the fire.
