Question

The Wind and the Sun

The wind and the sun argued about which of them was the strongest. The wind said, "I am so powerful that I can blow all the clouds out of the sky." The sun said, "I am more powerful because I can heat up the sea below and this will produce many more clouds."

For a long time, the sun and the wind went on arguing. Just then, they saw a boy walking along the road below. He was wearing a coat. The wind suddenly had an idea. He said, "Let's see who can get the coat off that boy's back." The sun agreed. The wind started first. He blew as hard as he could. He blew from behind and he blew from the front of the boy. The harder he blew, the more tightly the boy held on to his coat to keep it from blowing away. After a while, the wind gave up.

Then, it was the sun's turn. It came out from behind the clouds and shore on the boy. The boy felt warm. After that, it began to get hotter and hotter. Soon, the boy could not stand the heat any longer. He took his coat off. The sun won.
