The winter in Iceland has been one of the worst ever. An animal that was born in Iceland and just returned there has enjoyed the weather. Keiko is a killer whale who is now living in a hidden bay.
When Keiko was one or two years old, he was captured. This was in 1979. In 1982 he was moved to an amusement part in Ontario, Canada. Three years later another park took him to Mexico City. There, the 6.4-meter (21-foot) whale lived in a small pen with water that was too warm. In 1993 the "Free Willy" movie made people aware of his state. In 1996 the Free Willy Keiko Foundation moved him to a pool in an aquarium in Newport, Oregon.
The foundation has spent over $12 million to return Keiko to Iceland, his home. Late last year the 40,000-pound (18,100-kilogram) whale was flown on a C-17 transport plane to pen near the Wesman Islands.
Critics thought Keiko would suffer in the cold water. Instead, he is enjoying the cold and becomes more active. He likes to
A. enjoyed being with other sea animals
B. killed other sea animals that have come into his pen
C. had limited contact with other sea animals
D. is ready to go to the open sea

For me there has been only one Valentine’s Day worthy of the name. It vas when I was nine years old. And no Valentine’s Day since has even come close to measuring up.
Her image had never left my mind,and sometime at about Valentine’s Day last year,the idea got stuck in my head: I needed to find Lori Lee.
In 1972, for two years I have been in love with Lori Lee, an angelic creature who lives across the street. Our walk home from the bus stop each day is the highlight of my young life.
The situation is complicated. First, Lori’s older brother,Ted, happens to be my best friend. Second, I am grotesquely bashful in Lori’s presence. In the company of friends I am a sparkling wit. With Loft, I communicate chiefly in grunts. And although she is always sweet to me,Lori’s heart does not appear to pound to the same desperate rhythm as my own.
