-)) "Early Fires" There was a time in history when man did not have the means to create fire. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires because man was unable to produce a spark. The first method of getting fire was to light sticks of wood at a flame started by nature - by a volcano, perhaps, or by a strike of lightning. These firebrands were carried home and used to kindle fires there. The fire had to be carefully guarded and kept burning as long as possible. Unfortunately, no matter how closely the flame was watched, it would sometimes go out. A sudden gust of wind or rain shower would extinguish it If the flame burned out, a new flame would have to be secured, which often meant a long journey and a great deal of trouble.

Which is the best summary of "Early Fires"? A) The only way that humans could have fire is by getting it from a natural occurrence, Like Lightning or a volcano. The fire had to be watched because if it went out, they could not ever get more. B) A long time ago, man had to get fire from a natural occurrence, such as Lightning or a volcano. The fire had to be brought home and used to light smaller fires there. Long ago, nature had to create all of the fires, because man could not. A fire had to be brought home from far away and had to be kept burning, because it was difficult to get a new one. D Many years ago, humans couldn't start fires and had to live close to volcanos or where Lightning strikes were common.​
