What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average (平均高度的) person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked (渗) into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are these which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement (水泥) might end with injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.

Big ocean fish have almost been endangered since the start of business fishing in the
1950s. The scientists found that the number of large fish has dropped by 90 percent in the
past fifty years. The study took ten years. The researchers collected records from fishing
businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published(发表)the findings.
The scientists say the common way called longline fishing is especially harmful to large fish. This way includes many fishing lines that are connected(连接) to one boat. If these lines are joined together, they can reach one hundred kilometers. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks(钩) to catch fish. Longline fishing is especially common in the Japanese
fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every
one hundred hooks. The study says longline fishing boats now might catch one fish per
hundred hooks.
The scientists say business fishing can destroy groups of fish much faster than in the
past. It’s not the only worry that the number of large fish is becoming smaller and smaller.
What’s worse, they are smaller in size than their ancestors(祖先).
