Lucy Brown teaches English in a junior high school. She loves her students very much, and she works hard. She often tells them some interesting stories in class and her students like her, too.
Yesterday, Lucy found some boys always made faces（做鬼脸）in class. She didn’t want them to do that again, so she got all her students together and said, “Boys and girls, when I was young, I liked making faces in class, too. But one day, my grandmother told me not to do that again. She said, ‘If you make faces again, you will be ugly when you grow up.’ So you shouldn’t do that again.”
Some students thought she was right, but some students didn’t. One of the boys put up his hand. “Oh, Tom! What do you want to say?” asked Lucy.
The boy stood up and said, “Miss Brown, you must regret（后悔）listening to your grandmother now.”

What if there is a fire in your house? Would you know what to do? Here are several suggestions which might help you escape (逃生) from the fire.

Leaving the house through a door should be your first choice as an escape route. Windows on a higher floor may be a safe escape route if you could get help from another person.

     If you can see smoke in the house, stay low to the ground as you go to the door. In a fire, smoke and poisonous air hurt more people. You’ll breathe less smoke if you stay close to the ground.

If fire or smoke is blocking (阻塞) an escape route, you do this, firefighters (消防队员) will have difficulty finding you. The sooner they find you, the sooner you can get out.

Meanwhile, keep heat and smoke from getting through the door by blocking the cracks (缝隙) around the door with blankets, or clothing. If there is a window, open it all the way and stand in front of it. If you can get a piece of clothing, cover your mouth to keep from breathing in the smoke. This works even better if you wet the cloth first.

If your clothed catch fire during a fire, don’t run! You had better stop, drop to the ground, and roll. This will cut off the air and put out the fire.
