The Southern California (加利福尼亚州)wildfire started on Tuesday morning. By the end of the day, it covered 47 square miles. The fire changed the life in the area, causing hour-long traffic jams, and making the people leave their homes.

The fire travelled really fast. So the governor(州长)Jerry Brown acted quickly and sent a state of emergency(紧急情况) soon after the fire started. Usually the state of emergency comes much later, after a fire has caused serious problems over several days.

The government ordered the evacuation(疏散) of 34,000 homes and 87,000 people. When one family failed to move away, firefighters went to protect their home. Six of the firefighters were once trapped by the fire.“We just sat there and waited for the fire to blow over,”firefighter Cody Anderson says.

The Southern California fire wasn't the only one burning in the state. The Clayton fire in Northern California, burned more than 175 buildings by the end of last week. Now, the firefighters have put out 40% of the fire and some evacuated people are able to return to their homes. But firefighters will have to go on fighting the fire, because many buildings are sill in danger.

Good news is that on Tuesday afternoon the police said they caught the man who set the fire. He was Dam in Anthony Pashilk, a 40-year-old worker. The police believe he set fire in the state many times, including the Clayton fire.

Wednesday's weather will make fighting the Southern California fire difficult. Hot, dry conditions(条件) and strong wind may make the work even harder.

阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案。每空限填一词。答案写在答题纸上。

What can you do to help people or animals in need? The answer is—to be a volunteer.

Helping yourself by helping others

Volunteering not only helps others but also helps yourself. If you're sad about something that happens, like an earthquake or a flood doing something to help others can be a great way to make you feel better.

It feels good to be able to help. Because of your help, some kids have warm hats, gloves and boots. Doing voluntary work means one very important thing—you make a difference to the world.

Getting started

School is a good place to start. You can ask a teacher what you should do to be a volunteer.

Some places want volunteers who are twelve or even older. Often, kids start volunteering by working with their parents. You might be too young to get food ready at a kitchen. But when your parents give you a helping hand, you might be able to go along.

Things to do with parents or family members

Volunteering is a great way to have fun with your family. Here are some ideas for things you can do as a family:

Clean up a park, a school or other public places.

Offer food to people without homes.

Coming up with your own ways

You can try to find your own ways to raise money. For example, you can make and sell things and donate the money to charity.

Volunteering can also help kids learn something about themselves. They will learn about what kinds of things they can do and what they are interested in.

So what are you waiting for? Make a plan to start volunteering today.
