Orange flames lit the sky. Smoke rose higher and higher,blacker and blacker. It was
October 8,1871,the day of the Great Chicago Fire. How did this disaster begin?No one
was sure,but most people blamed Mrs O’Leary’s cow. Mrs O’Leary went to her barn that night
to milk her cow. The cow kicked over a lamp,and the barn began to burn. Soon,other
buildings began to burn,too.Many of them were wooden buildings, and they were very
dry.More and more buildings burned. There was a very strong wind,and the flames crossed
the Chicago River and moved farther and farther north.Hotels burned;banks
burned;theatres,stores and prisons burned.Millions of dollars, thousands of buildings,and
hundreds of people—gone.
But Chicago did not die. Near the lake and to the south,some buildings did not burn. It
still had its railroads and ports.The people built new homes,new stores.The city went on
growing, Today,Chicago has more than three million people and hundreds of tall buildings.
The old Water Tower did not burn in the fire,and it is still on Michigan Avenue. Andguess what stands in place of Mrs O’Leary’s barn? The Chicago Fire Academy！

The Wilsons decided to go overseas for vacation.They had a family meeting to plan the
vacation.“First,”Mr. Wilson said,“we should decide where we are going.”
“I don’t agree,”Mrs.Wilson said，“I think we should decide when we are going first.
We don’t want to go to places when they are cold.”Mr. Wilson agreed,so the family’s first
decision was when to go on vacation.They decided to go in July.
“Now we can decide where to go,”said Mr. Wilson.
“But,Dad,”Ben said,“don’t you think that where we go depends on how we go? If
we plan to fly,we can go a long way.If we plan to drive,we can’t go far.”
Again,Mr.Wilson agreed,and they discussed this.At last they agreed to travel by
plane.
And so the planning meeting went on. The next day,one of Mr. Wilson’s friends at
work asked,“Where are you going for vacation?”
“Well,”Mr. Wilson told him,“we are going in summer by plane,but I don’t know
where we are going！”
