Project: Fire

by Alice and Peter

Many, many years ago, people used a stick, a large piece of wood and dry leaves to make a fire. They used fire to cook meat and to get light and heat.

很多很多年以前，人們用木棍，大塊木頭以及干樹葉來生火。它們用火來燒煮肉類并且獲得光和熱。

Today, people use fire in many different ways. At home, we use fire to cook food and boil water. In factories, workers use fire to melt metals to make things of different shapes. Factory workers also use fire to make glasses.

如今，人們在許多不同的方面用到火。在家里，我們用火來做飯燒水。在工廠里，工人們用火熔化金屬，以制造出各種形狀的物品。工人們也用火來燒制玻璃。

Fire can be very dangerous. Every year, hill fires burn a lot of trees. This is because there are many careless people. They leave burning cigarette ends or do not put out their barbecue fires. People may be seriously injured or even lose their lives and homes in a fire. We must be careful with fire.

火可能很危險。每年，山火都會燒毀大片樹木。這是由于很多粗心的人。他們扔下未熄滅的煙頭或者在離開時沒有熄滅野炊的火。一場大火，人類可能被重度燒傷，甚至失去生命和家庭。我們必須謹慎火源。
