who doesn’t love sitting beside a cosy fire on a cold winter’s night ? Who doesn’t love to watch flames (火苗) curling up a chimney ? Fire is one of man’s greatest friends , but also one of his greatest enemies. Many big fires are caused by carelessness . A lighted cigarette thrown out of a car or train window or a broken bottle lying on dry grass can start a fire . Sometimes , though , a fire can start on its own . Wet hay (草) can begin burning by itself . This is how it happens : the hay starts to rot (腐烂) and begins to give off heat which is trapped inside it . Finally , it bursts into flames . That’s why farmers cut and store their hay when it’s dry . Fires have destroyed whole cities . In the 17th century , a small fire which began in a baker’s shop burnt down nearly every building in London. Moscow was set on fire during the war against Napoleon . This fire continued burning for seven days . And , of course , in 64 A. D. a fire burnt Rome . Even today , in spite of modern fire - fighting methods , fire causes millions of pounds’ worthy of damage each year both in our cities and in the countryside . It has been wisely said that fire is a good servant but a bad master .
60. The writer considers it ________ to sit beside a fire on a cold winter night .
A. nice B. dangerous C. unhappy D. painful
6!Many big fires are caused __________ .
A. by cigarette B. by their own
C. by dry grass D. by people’s carelessness
62. How many examples did the writer give to show fires can destroy the whole city ?
A. One B. Two C. Three D. Four
63. Which of the following statement is not true ?
A. Fires still cause much damage now although there are modern fire - fighting methods .
B. Fires cause less damage in the country than in the city .
C. Fire can be man’s good friend and also great enemy .
D. One should be careful not to throw a lighted cigarette everywhere .
C
The king of the oil field is the driller . He is a very skilled man . Sometimes he sends his drill more than a mile into the earth . During the process of drilling , gas and oil at great pressure may suddenly be met , and if he rushes out and catches fire that oil well may never be brought into operation at all . This danger is well known and steps are always taken to prevent it. There is a lot of luck in drilling for oil . The drill may just miss the oil although it is near ; on the other hand , it may strike oil at a fairly high level . When the drill goes down , it brings up soil . the soil is examined for traces of oil . If they are disappointed at one place , the drillers go to another . A lot of money has been spent , for example , in the deserts of Egypt , in “searching”for oil . Sometimes little is found . When we buy some petrol for our cars , we pay not only the cost of the petrol , but also part of the cost of the search that is always going on .
64. The word “drilling”in this passage means _________ .
A. doing exercises B. searching for oil C. preventing fires
D. training workers
65. The driller is unlucky when the drill ________ .
A. goes very near the oil without striking it
B. brings up oil
C. strikes oil at a fairly high level
D. does not bring up oil
66. The soil the drill brings up is _________ .
A. useful B. poor C. of no use D. colorful
67. The cost of unsuccessful drilling is __________ .
A. met by the driller B. paid by the government
C. included in the selling price of petrol D. returned by the oil wells

CBC is a famous air company which has over twenty planes carrying passengers and goods, flying along 12 fixed lines all over the world. Its service is very good but some passengers are still not satisfied with it and that is why in 1996 and 1997 the company received letters of complaints from consumers or passengers who pointed out over a dozen kinds of problems which are divided in groups in the following table.

Hints on Safety
Nearly everyone is attracted to water, whether it be the sea, canals, rivers or the village pond. Beautiful as it is, water should be regarded with respect as it can be hazardous. Around 300 children up to the age of ten die each year from drowning. It should be every parent’s responsibility to ensure that both he and the child can swim and that as the child gets older, he has some knowledge of life-saving and artificial respiration(人工呼吸).
The basic rules of water safety are:
—don’t leave small children playing alone in water
—never swim an hour before or an hour after a main meal
—If it’s a danger area, find out before you start swimming where the life-guard is or where a lifebelt is available(可提供的)
—as children get older, try to teach them to remain calm in an emergency(紧急情况)
—look out for warning things to see whether you’re in a danger area(see under this)
—Be especially careful of inland stretches of waterpools, reservoire(水库) and dykes(沟) where there are often fewer people about than at the seaside.

In Scotland, the New Year is called Hogmanay. In the villages of Scotland,barrels(桶) of tar(沥青) are set a fire and then rolled down the streets. This ritual symbolizes that the old year is burned up and the new one is allowed to enter.

Don’t Eat Meat
We should not eat meat or use animal products, which are usually high in fat. While vegetables and fruits contain more minerals and vitamins than animal products. In the past, we had no choice, but today we know better. It is not right to kill animals for food or clothing and animals if we want to survive. Human beings and animals share the only one earth, and they both play a very important role in keeping the balance of nature. So we should stop eating animals, we should treat animals better, protect our planet and use our resources in a better way. So please don’t eat meat any more.
