ReplyDeleteHi Jessica, you have done a great job using the clues and information from the text to help you form ideas and opinions. I wonder how well governments plan what they will do if a heatwave strikes. I wonder what happens in (3) if people don't have a plan for how they will protect people when heatwaves strike.
