allow Accidents happen almost every day. Some accidents are not rious and some are. We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers. It is wrong for people to think that accidents take place only on the roads or highways, or even at work places. Home accidents are just as common. Becau very few home accidents are reported, people come to think that there are few accidents which happen in homes.
There have been many cas where people fall to their deaths from high ri flats.① Children often fall over while coming down the stairs. Old people may slip (滑跤) on wet floors if they are not careful.
Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances (电器) such as rice cookers which make life easy for the modern hou wives. The appliances can kill if they are not ud in the proper way. Gas stoves (煤气灶) ud for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly ud. They may cau burns or, in more rious cas, even fires.②
