CADAB解析这是一则新闻，介绍了在广东省发生的一起事故1.推理题。根据第6行的a fire caused by passengers' smoking broke out可知火灾是意味粗心的吸烟引起的。2.细节题。根据文章第5行South China at 00 :17 hours yesterday。3.细节题。根据文章第5行l in Guangdong Province可知D正确。4.猜测词义题。根据上下文可知他们本来是想扑灭大火，但是恐慌的人们却先跳车逃生。5.推理题。根据文章第4行No.247 Wuchang —— Guangzhou passenger train可知这列客车是从武昌到广州的，那么应该是向南行驶的。
