And when a forest fire rages out of control, threatening human lives and homes, it must be fought like a "wild animal." The fight is often desperate, since firefighters’ best efforts may be dwarfed by the fury of a large fire. But the fire’s own traits can be used against it. The heated air above a fire rises in a pillar of smoke and burnt gases, pulling fresh air in from the sides to replace it. Firefighters use this fact when they "fight fire with fire." They start a fire well in front of the one which they are fighting. Instead of traveling on in front of the huge fire, the smaller fire is pulled back toward it by the updrafts of the larger blaze. As it travels back to meet the large A. how fires start B. damage caused by fire C. the fascination of fire D. fighting forest fires 查看答案 [单项选择]Passage Three Young people in the United States have a wide variety of inte-rests apart from their school work. As children, both boys and girls play many of the same games. They swim, play baseball and basketball, go boating and camping, and have fun in many kinds of sports and outdoor activities. Numerous youth organizations give young people a chance to develop and broaden their interests, and to gain experience in working with others. Among these groups are the Boy Scouts, which serves more than four million boys, the Girl Scouts, with nearly three million girls, and the Boys’ Club of America, with over one million participants. These and other groups are guided by adults who volunteer their services. Civic, cultural and religious groups also sponsor special programs for young people.

This is partly because the average Englishman is keen on working with his own hands and partly because he feels, for one reason or another, that he must do for himself many households for which, some years ago, he would have hired professional help. The main reason for this is a financial one. The high cost of labor has meant that builders’ and decorators’ cost have reached a level which makes them prohibitive for house-proud English people of modest means. So, if they wish to keep their houses looking bright and smart, they have to tackle some of the repairs and decorating themselves. As a result, there has grown up in the post-war years what is sometimes referred to as the "do-it-yourself movement". The "do-it-yourse A. they are skilled handymen B. they are proud of their houses C. they can’t afford professional help D. they are mean 查看答案 [单项选择]Passage Three Most people think of lions as strictly African beasts, but only because they’re been killed off almost everywhere else. Ten thousand years ago lions spanned vast sections of the globe. Now lions hold only a small fraction of their former habitat, and Asiatic lions, a subspecies that split from African lions perhaps 100,000 years ago, hang on to an almost impossibly small slice of their former territory. India is the proud steward of these 300 or so lions, which live primarily in a 560-square-mile sanctuary (保护区). It took me a year and a half to get a permit to explore the entire Gir Forest--and no time at all to see why these lions became symbols of royalty and greatness. A tiger will hide in the forest unseen, but a lion stands its ground, curious and unafraid--lionhearted. Though they told me in subtle ways when I got too cl A. the present sanctuary is not large enough B. scientists want to do more research on them C. they have killed many people D. the forest is shrinking in size 查看答案 我来回答: 提交 最新试题 ●    肺胀形成的病因病机。 ●    肺胀的常见病因（） ●    胃痛发病的关键病机是（） ●    晚期血吸虫病的临床表现有（） ●    请用150字左右的篇幅概括出给定资料的主要内容。要求：语言简练、概括全面。 ●    女，48岁，临床诊断为宫颈鳞状上皮癌Ⅰb-Ⅱa期。宫颈癌普查最常用的方法是（）。 网站地图 我要搜题网  版权所有  ©2023  湘ICP备18016427号   购买搜题卡查看答案 [会员特权] 开通VIP， 查看 全部题目答案 [会员特权] 享免全部广告特权 推荐91天 ¥36.8 ￥80元 31天 ¥20.8 ￥40元 365天 ¥88.8 ￥188元 请选择支付方式 微信支付 支付宝支付 点击支付即表示同意并接受了《购买须知》 立即支付 系统将自动为您注册账号 已有账号登录 找回账号密码 请使用微信扫码支付 订单号： 请不要关闭本页面，支付完成后请点击【支付完成】按钮 支付完成 取消支付 恭喜您，购买搜题卡成功 系统为您生成的账号密码如下： 账号 密码 重要提示：请拍照或截图保存账号密码！ 我要搜题网官网：https://www.woyaosouti.com 我已记住账号密码
