Long, long ago people made fires from lightening (闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing (摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.
Years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.
About two centuries ago, people began to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is very useful.

New York is a very large city with 8 million people. How do so many people move about the city on their way to work and school? So, we should know something about its transport. In New York you can travel about the city by subway, bus, taxi and car. The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Traveling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city.
The second way to travel around the city is by public bus. It’s a slower way to travel. This is because the bus moves in road traffic which is often heavy. You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is the most expensive way, but the taxi will take you to the very place you wish to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons, there is the “rush hour”. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work. The last way to get around New York is using your own car. However, it’s not easy for you to drive, especially when you are driving in the “rush hour”. If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for a long time.
The best time to travel around the city is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is the time after the morning “rush hour” and before the evening “rush hour”. Traffic will be less crowed because most people are already at school or at work. 66. The text is mainly about ______.
A. the weather of New York B. the transport in New York C. the people in New York D. traffic accidents in New York 67. The fastest way to travel in New York is by ______. A. subway B. taxi C. bus D. car
