根据短文内容，按要求答题。（回答81—85题时，不得超过八个单词。）
A forest fire that burned 55 square kilometres was finally brought under control on Wednesday morning. The fire started on Sunday in Black Bear State Park and quickly spread to nearby areas.
On Monday, police evacuated（疏散） the small town of Lawson and ordered the people to leave their homes. The fire destroyed 20 homes in the area and caused heavy damage to 40 others.
Nobody was hurt. Officials said the damage to homes and cars was between $l million and $2 million. The government declared the town a disaster (灾难) area. The fire spread quickly in the hot, dry weather. Fire fighting was difficult because of strong winds. Firemen from 55 fire departments in the state joined the National Fire Service to put out the fire. Some kept fighting for 24 hours. Fire engines and helicopters dropped water onto the fire. In order to control the fire, firemen cleared a way around the fire.
Police closed King Road to traffic on Tuesday because of heavy smoke. Thousands of tourists had to drive an hour north to Queen Road to pass the fire area.
Some people did not follow the police order. Paul Grayson sent his wife and two children to safety, but he stayed. As the fire came within 50 feet of his house, he started thinking, “Am I foolish? Did I stay here too long, just for a house?”

试题分析：这篇短文为我们记叙了一场森林火灾。火灾发生在星期天，是从Black Bear State Park开始的，因为天气干燥，所以火灾蔓延的很快。又因为风很大，所以给救火带来了很大的困难。
小题1:根据短文第一段中The fire started on Sunday in Black Bear State Park可知，这场森林火灾是在星期天的时候，在Black Bear State Park 开始的。
小题2:根据短文第二段中On Monday, police evacuated（疏散） the small town of Lawson and ordered the people to leave their homes可知，在星期一，警察来疏散Lawson小镇的人们，命令人们离开家。故本题答案为to leave their homes。
小题3:根据短文第三段中Fire fighting was difficult because of strong winds.可知，灭火的行动很困难因为风很大。
小题4:根据短文第三段中Fire engines and helicopters dropped water onto the fire.可知，消防人们使用灭火机和直升飞机来灭火。故本题答案为They used fire engines and helicopters。
小题5:根据短文最后一段中Paul Grayson sent his wife and two children to safety, but he stayed.可知，Paul Grayson 把妻子和两个孩子送到了安全的地方，自己却没有听警察的话留了下来，所以在当时那种危急的情况下，他的这种做法是愚蠢的，没有意识到有多么危险。
