Ⅳ.阅读理解。(ⅠⅠⅠⅠⅠ)

Tuesday, Jan. 6th, 9:50 p. m.

We were sitting in our warm living room. The TV was on, and everything was

and everything was peaceful. Suddenly the light went on and off for a few times and

then went out completely. Then the rain started, and everything went black. We found

a flashlight and some candles and went to bed.

Wednesday, Jan. 7th. 7: 30 a. m

My first thought after waking up was that it was pretty cold in my bedroom.

Clearly, the power(电力供应) didn't come back. After one look out of the window, I

felt even sadder: it was still raining heavily. The room was becoming colder and

colder. We had no idea when the power would come back, so my wife started a fire in

the fireplace.
