A factory building is a four-story reinforced concrete structure. At one end of the first floor is the workshop, and at the other end is the raw material warehouse, which contains items such as wood, sponge, and paint. The workshop and the raw material warehouse are separated by iron fences and wooden planks. The wires running along the iron fence were not insulated by conduit, and the fuses in the electrical switches in the raw material warehouse were replaced with two pieces of wire. The second floor is the packaging, inspection workshop, and offices. The third floor is the finished product warehouse. The fourth floor is the staff dormitory. A fire and explosion occurred due to sparks generated by a short circuit in the wires of the raw material warehouse, which ignited the flammable materials inside. The factory collapsed as a result, leading to 17 deaths and 20 injuries, with direct economic losses of over 800,000 yuan. Questions: 1. This accident falls under: A. Accidental accident B. Faulty accident C. Natural accident D. Criminal case. 2. The direct cause of this fire and explosion accident was: A. The fuse in the electrical switch of the raw material warehouse was replaced with two wires ; B. The line installation does not comply with safety standards ; C. A short circuit in the wires in the raw material warehouse generated sparks, which ignited the flammable materials inside the warehouse, resulting in a fire and explosion accident ; 3. Indirect causes of this accident: A. The wiring installation did not comply with safety standards ; B. Workers lack a strong safety awareness; C. Safety training is inadequate; D. Safety and fire protection inspections in the factory are not carried out in accordance with regulatory requirements; E. Raw materials are stored together; 4. According to the \"Classification Standards for Injuries and Deaths of Supervisors\", the accident may fall under the following categories: A. Burns ; B. Asphyxiation due to poisoning C. Fire D. Fall from a height E. Impact by objects F. Collapse
