12、it Jake was safe from the cold.But he had to get down the mountain.

18、guage? Do you count on your fingers? Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world. But scientists have discovered that it is not true.People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers. In the United States, people begin counting with their

19、 first finger, which they extend or stick out. They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb to count to five. Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten.

20、 on only one hand. Besides ways of finger counting, scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers.

21、 These people dont have hand movements to stand for numbers. They dont even have words for numbers.

23、does not count.
