Long, long ago people made fire from lighting（闪电）. But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start again if there was no lighting. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark（火花）。 The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing（磨擦）. They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick in to the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.

As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometime they use the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire. About two century ago, people begin to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is very useful
