Scotland is in the north while Wales is in the west . Ireland , which is also an island , lies off the west coast of Great Britain .

Who doesn’t love to watch flames (火苗) curling up a chimney ? Fire is one of man’s greatest friends , but also one of his greatest enemies. Many big fires are caused by carelessness . A lighted cigarette thrown out of a car or train window or a broken bottle lying on dry grass can start a fire . Sometimes , though , a fire can start on its own . Wet hay (草) can begin buring by itself . This is how it happens : the hay starts to rot (腐烂) and begins to give off heat which is trapped inside i t . Finally , it bursts into flames . That’s why farmers cut and store (贮存) their hay when it’s dry .Fires have destroyed whole cities . In the 17th century , a small fire which began in a baker’s shop burnt down nearly every building in London. Moscow was set on fire during the war against Napoleon . This fire continued burning for seven days . And , of course , in 64 A. D. a fire burnt Rome . Even today , in spite of modern fire - fighting methods , fire causes millions of pounds’ worthy of damage e ach year both in ourcities and in the countryside . It has been wisely said that fire is a good servant but a bad master .46. The writer considers it ________ to sit beside a fire on a cold winter night .A. niceB. dangerousC. unhappyD. painful47. Which of the following describes the way how hay begins burning on its own ?A. wet hay becomes dry gives off heat burnsB. dry hay gets too much heat from the sun gives out heatstarts to burnC. wet hay begins to rot gives out heat starts to burnD. dry hay gives off heat starts to rot starts to burn48. Many big fires are caused __________ .A. by cigaretteB. by their ownC. by dry grassD. by people’s carelessness49. how many examples did the writer give to show fires can destroy the whole city ?A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. Four50. Which of the following statement is not true ?A. Fires still cause much damage now although there are modern fire - fighting methods .B. Fires cause less damage in the country than in the city .C. Fire can be man’s good friend and also great enemy .D. One should be careful not to throw a lighted cigarette everywhere .3The king of the oil field is the driller . He is a very skilled man . Sometimes he sends his drill more than a mile into the earth . During the process (过程) of drilling , gas and oil at great pressure may suddenly be met , and if he rushes out and catches fire that oil well may never be brought into operation at all . This danger is well known and steps are always taken to prevent it.There is a lot of luck in drilling for oil . The drill may just miss the oil although it is near ; on the other hand , it may strike oil at a fairly high level . When the drill goes down , it brings up soil . the soil is examined for traces (痕迹) of oil . If they are disappointed at one place , the drillers go to another . A lot of money has been spent , for example , in the deserts of Egypt , in “searching”for oil . Sometimes little is found . When we buy some petrol (汽油) for our cars , we pay not only the cost of the petrol , but also part of the cost of the search that is always going on .51. The word “drilling”in this passage means _________ .A. doing exercisesB. searching for oilC. preventing firesD. training workers52. The driller is unlucky when the drill ________ .A. goes very near the oil without striking itB. brings up oilC. strikes oil at a fairly high levelD. does not bring up oil53.
