People know the danger of fires. It’s good for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are some suggestions：
Put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.
Make escape (逃脱) plans. They should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire， everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.
Buy fire extinguishers (灭火器) in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to use them.
Practice for a fire. They do fire practice because they teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules：
＊Don’t open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door.
＊Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire； the best air is near the floor because smoke rises.
＊What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First， stop! Don’t run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. They roll! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket (毯子) around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.

I am Steve. I was born and grew up in South Wales. My favorite place to play was out on the hills where my imagination had plenty of space to expand(拓展).
My family moved out of Wales when I was thirteen. I went to a new school. One of my subjects was French. Because I had never learned any French， my teacher told me to sit in the corner and write anything I was interested in. That’s the time I started writing， just for myself， and I’ve been writing ever since.
I have always loved BIG IDEAS， and so I enjoy writing fantastic stories. And I also write horror(恐怖的)stories. I think they are like the old fairytales(童话故事)， and can teach you important things.
I am in my forties on the outside， twelve on the inside. I like rock music， Indian and Chinese food， and I enjoy drinking. I live in a small village with my wife Mary， ducks， cats， goats， hens and lots of rabbits. If you’d like to find out more about me and hope to buy my books， go to www.sbowkett.freeserve.co.uk.
