The train dissapeared into the night. I was alone, in the dark, with the temperature at minus 20, as cold as I’d expected it. At that point I thought about giving up this trip and wished I were on my way back home but the train had gone and I could see a hotel ahead. The girl at reception gave me the key to a “ cabin” as the rest of the hotel was closed. I went back outside. I could see by the light from the hotel and found the cabin easily. My hands were frozen as I turned the key in the lock and pushed the door which refused to move. I pushed it harder . I was thinking of breaking a window to prevent myself from freezing to death when I took my hand off the handle and the door opened gently towards me. After recovering in the warmth of the cabin, which was actually very comfortable, I went outside again. I realized I wasn’t completely alone as I saw car headlights on the road nearby. It was a clear evening full of red, green and blue light in the frozen air. It was so beautiful I wanted to write a poem about it but I had no paper. I could only spend ten minutes outside at a time so I went in and out of the cabin to watch the amazing Northern Lights. I only spent three days there. I was sorry I’d booked a ticket on the train to continue my journey so soon. _____________________________________0$12333333333333333333333333333333333 1. What is the writer trying to do?

He remembers the fascination of watching tadpoles turn into frogs in the garden pond .(1)____________.
