“YOU don’t feel the coldso much at twenty below zero out in the western country.There is none of this damp chill,”he said and then it seemed he had been unhappy.She had not ever said that it was an unpleasant day.
“You will have a cold drive going back,”he said anxiously,and put up his hand for the twentieth time to see if his coat-collar was as close to the back of his neck as possible.

Passage Two
In June of 1973,nine whales beached on the Florida coast.Beaching means swimmingout of the ocean onto the beach,and usually dying there.No one knows why they do it,but a number of whales beach themselves every year.Some people think beaching is an accident.
Perhaps the whales get confused.Scientists who studied the beaching of three dozen whales in Australia think the whales may have been confused by lund noises.Whales can tell where they are by sounds.They send out sounds and’listen as they travel past or bounce off objects.Two days before these thirty-six whales beached,lond guns had been fired for two hours.The lond sounds may have confused the whales.Their confusion might have caused them to wander into low water.
Whatever the reason Whales beach,it is a sad event.People try to save them,but very few beached whales live.One whale that was rescued from beaching in Florida livedfor fortyfive days.That is the longest a beached whale has ever survived.And it livedthat long only because it got attention from doctors.
All over the world,scientists.rush to whale beachings as soon as they hear about them.They hope to learn why whales beach,and how to save them.

These are two important questions that many people are asking today.Some peoplethink that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time.They suggest using garbage as an energy source,and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.
For a long time,people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land.Now,empty land is scarce.But more and more garbage is produced each year.However,garbage can be a good fuel to Ltse.The things in garbage do not look like coal,petroleum'or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels.As we use up our fossilfuel supplies’ we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage lS not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years.The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings.In Paris,France,some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year.The amount of energy Produced js about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.
Our fossil fuel supplies are limited.Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs
