It’s a good idea for families to talk about what they can do to escape(逃脱)from a fire(火灾) . Do you know what to do if there is a fire in your flat? Here are some tips for you:

1. Shout out. Shout as loudly as you can, because people may be asleep.

2. Call 119. Never try to put out a fire yourself. Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire.

3. Keep down close to the floor. There is less smoke down there, so it’s easier to breathe (呼吸) and see where you are going.

4. Test the door. If the door is cool, open it carefully. If not, do not open it! Try to find a different way out.

5. Get out. Do not stop to pick up anything. A fire can become very big in a few seconds!

6. Don’t use the lift（电梯）. Always use the stairs (楼梯) . The lift may go wrong. It isn’t safe and many keep you inside in a fire.

7. Don’t go back. Even if you leave your pet or favorite toy inside, do not go back for it. Animals have a very good sense of smell. They often get out of buildings before people.

Think you’re ready to keep a pet at home? Having a dog is a wonderful experience, one that brings lots of fun and keeps from being loneliness. But it also needs lots of attention and responsibility (责任).

Before you decide to get a dog, you should prepare yourself and your home. Dogs, especially young ones, need more time and responsibility. While housetraining your dog, plan to take it outside every day. 　61

Don’t let a young dog run freely around your house, or you’ll lose shoes or toys. Dogs also need to exercise twice a day. 　62 We’re talking about a lot of active exercise.

A fenced (篱笆) yard with a doghouse is a good idea, especially for large and active dogs. But dogs should never be left outside alone for long periods of time. They need to be kept company. 　6377

When you take your dog for a walk or run, always keep it on a chain and off other people. You are responsible for accidents and bites caused by your dog. You should always pick up after your dog, no matter where it “does its business”.

Respect your dog. 　64 There’s truth to the saying, “Dogs are man’s best friends!”

　　 A. Housetraining can take up to six months.

　　 B. And it will respect and protect you.

　　 C. Make sure your dog has regular checkups.

D. They should stay inside with the family whenever possible.

　　 E. That doesn’t mean a short walk around the block.

“Well, we’re in our new house. Let’s get a new pet to get along with it,” Mrs. Brown said to her husband.
“That sounds like a pretty good idea,” he answered. “Do you want to see the ads in the newspaper?”
“Let’s go to the animal shelter. Many pets there need homes. Since tomorrow is Saturday, we can both go,” she said.
The next morning the Browns met Mr. Snow at the animal shelter. “We want to be sure that the pets here go to good homes,” Mr. Snow said, “So I need to ask you some questions.”
After they talked for a while, the Browns decided to get a small dog. It wouldn’t need a big house or a big yard. A small dog would bark(吠) and warn them if someone tried to break into their house. After Mr. Snow gave the Browns a book on pet care, they chose one and wanted to take her home right away. But the animal doctor hadn’t checked her yet. So Mr. Snow told them to return on Sunday.
On Sunday afternoon the Browns went to the animal shelter again. The animal doctor said, “Shadow has had all of her shots(预防针). She will be healthy.” The Browns thanked the doctor and took Shadow home.
