If you had only one match, and entered a dark room containing an oil lamp, some newspaper, and some kindling wood, which would you light first?

I'd light the match first. Wouldn't you?

I would light the match. Then the oil lamp. I would be afraid to start a fire with wood and paper in a dark room. I would probably catch the place on fire. If I could find a safe place, I would then take the fire from the oil lamp, start the paper and wood, then blow out the oil lamp until I needed it later. When that was going out I would relight my lamp with the rest of my match stick.
:o)
