I . Read the following passage, and then choose the best answer from A, B, C or D.
Probably the most important factor governing the severity of forest fires is weather. Hot, dry
weather lowers the moisture content of fuels. Once a fire has started, wind is extremely critical
because it influences the oxygen supply and the rate of spread. Forest type and forest conditions are
also important factors. For example, fire is more likely to occur in conifers than in hardwood; slash-
covered or brushy areas are specially hazardous because the rate at which combustion consumes
fuel is proportional to fuel volume and surface area.
Some fires are caused by lightning; others are caused by people. Those caused by people may
be accidental or intentional (incendiary). The causes of fire in the United States show large regional
differences. In the Rocky Mountains more than 70 percent of the fires are caused by lightning,
whereas incendiary fires amount to only about 1 percent. In contrast, more than 40 percent of the
fires in the south are incendiary, whereas lightning causes only 1 percent.
