About two hundred years 11 ，people began to 12 matches(火柴)．One early match looked 13 the match we use today．The match gave people a 14 way to start fires．Today people are 15 finding new ways to start fires．One of the new ways to start a fire is to use an electric fire starter(电子打火器)．Now you can 16 matches and electric fire starter at 17 ．Of course an electric fire starter is more expensive than 18 ， 19 it is useful．
