  23. 23. The ‘k’, ‘t’ and ‘th’ sounds…all at once If you think you are safe from thievery, think again. Most thefts occur within three kilometres of the victim’s home. People often venture into the streets without giving their valuables a second thought. They leave things out in the open, where thieves can easily spot them. Items worth thousands of dollars can be stolen in a tenth of a second. So be thoughtful. Only you can thwart this terrible crime. Watch your things carefully.
  24. 24. Even though my father is a weatherman, he can’t predict with absolute certainty whether it will rain or not. Neither can the other people who work with him. They say there’s only a thirty percent chance of rain, and the next thing you know, it’s pouring. They predict snow, and there’s nothing for another five days. Then, there’s blizzard. So rather than trust my father’s weather forecasts, I use a more reasonable approach. I ask my mother. The ‘k’, ‘t’ and ‘th’ sounds… Time to show off!
