I. Read the following two passages .
(A)
There was once a traveler who was wet and cold because he had been riding in the rain. At last he reached a country inn. The inn was so crowded with people that he could not get near the fire. So he called out to the innkeeper, “Take some fish to my horse!” The innkeeper answered, “But a horse doesn’t eat fish!” The traveler then said, “ Never mind, do as I tell you.” The crowd of people, hearing this strange order, ran out to see a horse eat fish. The traveler, now having the whole room to himself, sat down beside the fire and warmed himself.
When the innkeeper came back with the crowd of people, he said,“ Your horse does would not eat the fish.” The traveler answered,“ Never mind; put it on the table, and when I have quite dried my clothes I will eat it myself.”
(B)
Why does the wind blow sometimes from the north and sometimes from the south or the east or the west? The answer is that the wind blows for the same reason that smoke from a fire moves upwards13. The fire is hot; the air above gets warmed; the warm air expands and therefore gets lighter14 in weight because the same amount fills more space. The light warm air above the fire , because it is lighter than the air around it, rises as a piece of wood from the bottom of a pool. As it rises it carries the smoke with it and we see the smoke moving upwards. But as the warm air above the fire moves up, other, cooler air from round about comes in to take its place: and so a little “wind” blows toward the fire. The sun, shining upon the world, warms the air, not equally everywhere, but in some places much more than in others. The air over the warm places, wherever they may be, rises; the cooler air from round about blows in to take its place. So we have winds and breezes, sometimes soft and gentle, sometimes in raging storms.
