The Two Seasons In Indonesia
It was a hot afternoon. Ram and Her friend Janet
were on a bus on their way to the swimming pool.
"It's a lovely day. Just light for swimming. I'm
glad we decided to go for a swim," Janet said.
"I am too. But perhaps there*ire a lot of people at
the swimming pool. I hope (= mengharap) the weather
stays this way the whole afternoon. This is the
beginning of the wet season and it's difficult to predict
the weather. Sometimes it's nice and sunny, the
suddenly it rains heavily,"
"When is the rainy season in Indonesia?"
"The. wet season it from November to April and
it is followed by the dry season, which lasts from May
to October. You know we have only two seasons in
Indonesia," Rani answered.
"Does it rain very hard during the wet season?"
"Yes, it does. But the heavy downpours are
interspersed with periods of sunshine. It seldom
happens that it rains or that the sky is overcast for days
on end. Thunderstorms are frequent during the rainy
season, and so are floods. And the heaviest rainfall is in
December and January," Rani explained to her friend.
"What's the average rainfall for the whole
country?" Janet .wanted to know.
'It's about 102 cm or 40 inches. But even in the
middle of the rainy season the temperature ranges from
21 °C. to 60°C. or 70°F to 90°F in the coastal regions..
In the highlands it is cooler, of course."
Just then the bus shopped and the two girls got off
and walked to the swimming pool.

WILDLIFE
Our world has more than 1,500,000 kinds of
plants and animals. Unfortunately we have lost a great
many of those species and we are afraid that we shall
lose many more if we are not careful.
We can find none or only a small number of
certain species of animals because people have been
killing them. , They have done this either for food or
just for fun.
As the population grows, more and more species
are lost and many forests become plain. People build
dams and cause the loss of certain kinds of fish. People
build wide roads, airfields and all kinds of big
buildings and cut animals off from their sources of
food.
Factories of all kinds, as welt as ordinary people,
throw away of all kinds into water: rivers, lakes, seas
and oceans. Several kinds of waste contain poison.
Although water can absorb or take away the waste, in
some places water gets too much, Then the water
becomes overloaded or polluted.
: The cutting down of forests, the continuous
killing of animals and the polluting of rivers, lakes and
seas are some of our greatest problems. Can we solve
these problems? If we want to, we can.
Some. Asian countries have built national parks
and wildlife reserves to protect endangered species. In
some other countries, however, these things are
difficult to do because the people there still need to
hunt these animals for food.
We can help, our government by obeying hunting
and fishing laws and growing new plants to provide
food and shelter for wildlife.
