Started a Fire

I had to prepare him for the journey we were about to embark on for the woods. We needed to get out of the city and find some food. As we made our way off campus, we ran into several packs of zombies and had to fight them off. I expected this but I do not think Steven did so he was mortified after we fought off the last pack. “I want to go home, I need my mommy, and you are not my mommy” Steven sniffled. I assured him that I was doing my best to get him home and that he would be with his mom in no time. We kept moving through down town and I had heard something in the distance. It sounded like a car, a running car that was driving right towards us. I started running towards the sound and saw the car parked in front of a gas station. I knew what I had to do so I jumped in the driver’s seat and told Steven to hop in and drove off towards the woods. As we were driving, one of the stores stuck out to me and I knew immediately what I needed to get Steven and I for some food. I parked the car and told Steven to come on, Steven looked confused but I told him to go look for dehydrated meals while I go look for an animal trap. Finally, I found the animal trap and called for Steven so we could go. This animal trap was going to help catch food for me to eat in woods while Steven eats the dehydrated meals.…

“The Fire My Daddy Started” All day today I have felt like a little girl. Shopping with my mommy, carving a pumpkin with my sister and dad, and giggling like a little girl, what fun we had. I felt as if we were children again. It was such a great feeling to talk at the dinner table and laugh till we cried. At the close of the day, as the sun was setting in the cool crisp fall weather, we gathered outside around a fire my daddy started for us all. He loves to build and play with a fire,…

though Peshtigo rarely had any fire that needed putting out. They just let most fires die out due to the lack of water. This caused him and his best friend, a dog named Truffle, to play a lot of training games. Devin would have Truffle run around fetching logs as fast as he can. Truffle wasn’t a normal dog, he was a huge dog; he was 5 feet bigger then Devin, when on four legs. Nobody knew how Devin was able to tame…

Once the oil was poured in, flames and sparks danced in the night sky, like a vortex of fire. I could hear wind whistling, the leaves rustling, flames flickering everywhere, and then, to myself, quietly humming a bittersweet rhythm. I’d always asked myself this question, if I was one of the elements of air, ground, fire, or water, which one will suit me the most. Everyone would tell me that my personality was like fire, burning and hot-headed, and I had to say, I agree. I’m not afraid of fire. I…

The reading passage indicates that three kinds of damage caused by “let it burn”policy.However,the speaker in the listening disagrees with the reading by setting the following three points. First of all,the writer in the reading suggests that the fire caused damage to the park’s trees and vegetation.On the contrary, the professor in the listening points out that the plant became more diverse because the fire made an opportunity for plants that could not grow otherwise. Some smaller plants that…

An orthodox New York City church caught fire on the evening of May 1, hours after worshipers had celebrated Easter. Huge flames could be seen coming out of its doors and windows, and triggered a four-alarm warning, requiring 170 firefighters who battled to douse the fire. The fire started at about 7 pm and led to a near-complete destruction of the Serbian Orthodox Cathedral of Saint Sava in Manhattan, which was designated a city landmark in 1968. The church's priest, Father Djokan Majstorovic,…

uncontrolled fires can become highly destructive if not prepared for. Wildfires can not only harm the environment, but can also harm us if they is not dealt with and spreads to human communities. Because of this, it is the job of firefighters to expunge wildfires before they become more destructive than they already are. However, simply expunging a wildfire after it starts isn't the best option to prevent them, since it leaves fuels (leaf litter and fallen branches), which can start an wildfire…

The tone of her voice changed to one that I did not recognize. My neighbor, Ken, was on the other line. I heard the panic in his voice as well, as he frantically yelled on the other end. Luckily, we had just turned into our neighborhood when we received the call, and arrived home only minutes later. The sight was like something out of a movie; there were at least three fire trucks, two police cars, and people everywhere you glanced. We joined the fire chief to discover what happened and to…
