【A】
 　　A terrible fire happened in Lily’s apartment last week. A woman on the fifth floor of the apartment forgot to turn off the gas stove before going out for work. It took away four people’s lives in just an hour, and eighteen people got hurt. Luckily, Lily wasn’t home that night. However, her cats weren’t so lucky. Three of them died in the fire, so now she has only one cat, Mimi. She felt so sad for her loss.
 　　She moved to a house with a yard instead of an apartment. It costs her more money every month, but she doesn’t want to lose Mimi because of a careless neighbor.
