Many thousands of years ago, people lived only in hot countries. They did not live in cold countries because they could not keep warm. And they did not know how to make fire, either. Sometimes lightning hit a forest and started a fire. Then people took some of this fire to make a fire near their homes. A fire was important for three reasons. It kept them warm. It frightened wild animals. They did not attack people when they saw a fire. And if you cook food, it tastes much better!
But men still did not know how to make fire. When they had a fire, they did not let it stop burning. If it went out, they could not start it again. They had to wait for lightning to start another fire! Sometimes they had to wait for years.
Later, they found how to make fire. If you rub (摩擦) two pieces of wood together, they become hot and burn. Of course you have to rub very fast! One way of doing it is to make a little hole in a piece of wood, pieces of wood or dry leaves are put into the hole, You rub the sticks between the hands. This makes it turn quickly. The end of the stick in the hole becomes very hot. The small pieces of wood and dry leaves begin to burn.

6. This passage is a piece of _____.
A. narrative (记叙文) B. expository (说明文) C. story D. novel
7. In the past fire was important for the following reasons except _____ .
