Volcanoes
Haroun Tazieff, the Polish scientist, has
spent his life-time studying active volcanoes and
deep caves
in all parts of the world. In 1948, he went to lake Kivu in the Congo
to observe a new
volcano which
he later named Kituro. Tazieff
was able to set up his
camp very
close to the
volcano while it was erupting violently. Though he
managed to take
a number of brilliant photograps, he could not stay near the volcano
for very long.
He noticed
that a river of liquid rock was coming towards him.
It threatened
to surround him
completely, but Tazieff
managed to escape
in time. He
waited until the volcano
became quiet and he
was able to returned two days later. This time he managed to climb into the mouth
of Kituro so that he could take photograps and measure
temperatures. Tazieff
has often risked his life in this way. He
has been able to tell us more about active volcanoes than any man
alive.

I crossed the street
to avoid meeting
him, but he
saw me
and came running
towards me. It was no use pretending that I had
not seen him,
so I waved
to him. I never enjoy
meeting Bert
Deykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how
busy you
are he always insists on coming
with you. I
had to think of away of preventing him
from following arround
all morning.
‘Hullo,
Bert,’ I said. ‘Fancy meeting you here!’.
‘Hullo,
Elizabeth,’ Bert
Answered. ‘I
was just wondering how to spend the morning -
until I saw
you. You’re
not busy doing anything,
are you?’
‘No,
not at all,’ I answered.
‘I am going to..’
‘Would
you mind my
coming with
you?’ he asked, before I
had finished speaking.
‘Not
at all,’ I lied.
‘but I am going to the
dentist.’
‘then i’ll come with you,’
he answered.
‘there’s always plenty
to read in the
waiting room.’
