When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking boys, with dark glasses and old clothes, and his hair was colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that hed started to eat my chocolate! Naturally, I was rather uneasy about him, but I didnt want to make more trouble. I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didnt say anything to him. When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece. ” and I got it. The boy gave me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out, “Theres something wrong with this woman!” Everybody looked at me, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and ready to leave.

Fire!” what terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old wooden house-the sort that burn beautifully-and my room was on the floor. I jumped out of the bed, opened the door and stepped out into the passage. It was full of thick smoke. I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see flames all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me. I saw a flaming doorway in front, put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terribly, but I got through. As I reached the cold air out side, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry. I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I saw a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a nightdress and a borrowed mans coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly. “My baby! My baby!” she cried. The crowd cheered widely as she took the smoke-blackened bundle out of my arms. I had some difficulty in recognizing her. She was the Mayors wife, and I have saved her baby. I was a hero! 86.Why did the author jump out of the bed in the middle of the night? A. Because the house where he stayed for the night was on fire. B. Because the house in which he stayed for the night was made of old wood. C. Because
