失火 Fire

STEVE: Did you smell something out here?

SUE: Yes, I was in the kitchen. I thought I could smell smoke.

STEVE: Me too. Where is it coming from?

SUE: I can't see anything. Wait! What's that over there?

STEVE: It's smoke. Whose house is that?

It looks like the back of the house was burning.

STEVE: I wonder if anyone can call the Rileys about this. Do you know them well?

SUE: Not really.

STEVE: Do you know where they're vacationing?

SUE: I think they went to Mexico, but I'm not sure.

It's a bad thing to return home to.

They'll come home from their trip, and they'll see half their house burned.

STEVE: Yes, but at least this way no one gets hurt.

It's better to have a fire in your house when you're not home. Don't you think?
