解析

试题分析:这篇短文主要讲了是人类从认识火到用火以及会取火的过程。
小题1:根据上下文一开始人们不知道怎样取暖,后来当他们把动物***死后,就把动物的皮制成衣服,这些动物的皮能使他们暖和,所以此题选B。
小题2:根据下文可知自然帮助人类发现了火,可知上文应该填E,指自然是人类的好朋友。
小题3:上文讲到闪电击中了一片森林产生了火,所以此空是人们把一些火带回家中,故选D。
小题4:此段落讲的是当时人们还不会生火,所以他们必须不能让取回来的火灭掉,否则他们就得再等一年,所以选A。
小题5:根据上文的描述现在人们取火非常容易,因为有了火柴,打火机以及不同种类的加热器等,故选C。
举一反三
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.
A 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.
