Each year around 800 people – most of them children – need treatment in hospital for injuries caused by fireworks. A third of the accidents take place at back garden firework parties and about a third of the   1   are to children under the age of 13. The cost of medical treatment after firework accidents can be as much as ￡20 million a year.

Martin Pearcey, 11, is one of the lucky ones: he could have been   2   in one eye.

Like hundreds of others on November 5 （Guy Fawkes’s Night）, Martin went to his  3   park to see the fireworks display. He was with his brothers, John and Dave.

“A gang of kids had taken the   4   material out of several fireworks and had put it in a pile on the ground,” remembers John.

“When they lit it, it went off and   5   Martin in his eye.”

John   6   Martin to their grandmother’s house nearby, where the eye was immediately bathed in cold water. He was then taken to hospital, where a sterilized （消毒的） patch was put over it.

“At first he couldn’t see a thing because the eye was so swollen,” says Martin’s elder sister, pat. “It was weeks before it would open   7   again.”

His dad agrees. “He was lucky not to lose the sight of that eye.”

“Little kids shouldn’t be able to get hold of fireworks,” adds Pat. “I think organized   8   are much safer.”

And young Martin now says, “I don’t mind fireworks when grown – ups are   9  , but I don’t like it when little kids have them. I think fireworks are a bit stupid, really.”
