How can fire or hot things be a danger in the house?Matches,of course,are always dangerous in the hands of young children.A little fire on waste land can easily get out of control.A wind comes,sparks(火花)are blown on to the roof of a house,and the whole building may be burnt to the ground before you can even call the fire brigade.Kerosene(煤油)lamps,too,can be very dangerous.Quite recently there was a bad accident in a village house.The mosquito-net(蚊帐)over a baby’s bed was blown against a lamp and caught fire.The bed-clothes and even the clothes of the baby were burnt before the fire was discovered. Long grass rubbish round a house can also lead to a big fire,as most people know.However,not everybody is careful with such things as paper bags and toys;these burn up in a flash if you hold them near a fire. Young children often reach up to a table to take a bottle down by its handle.If the bottle or pot is full of boiling water,you can guess what will happen.Similarly,when a baby’s bath is prepared,cold water should be put in first.If any hot water has to be used,this should be put into the bath after the cold water and not before it. Many fireworks(烟花)can lead to blindness or other injuries,especially those which are pushed into bamboo sticks.Wooden spears or swords should be used only by children with sense enough not to injure other people. Very young children often have to be watched carefully.They put everything they find into their mouths to see whether it can be eaten,or sucked!Medicines have to be put out of their reach.A pill which might be harmless for an adult can sometimes kill a baby.Older children have to be careful when drinking from a bottle.Some of them walk about as they drink.Tip up the bottle to get the last drop out,then fall over something on the ground.If they are unlucky,they fall in such a way that the broken glass makes a horrible wound in the face or neck. This is not a complete list of the dangers in and near a house,but it is enough to remind you to be careful. 1.What is the best explanation(解释)of “A little fire on waste land can easily get out of control”?
