4.8
When the sun is setting, its light does not come so straight down as when the sun is high in the sky. In order to reach our eyes the light from the setting sun has to pass through a thicker layer of air than when the sun is high in the sky.
So the light from the setting sun passes through much air, and through all the dust and smoke, which is in the air, and this gives it different colors.

What makes the wind whistle.
We not so easily notice the whistling and all other sounds which the wind makes when we are out of doors. But we easily notice all these sounds when we are in a house.
Why? Because when the wind blows through chinks of doors and windows, it meets all kinds of things. The wind makes these things tremble and vibrate and so produces all kinds of sounds.
Sometimes people are frightened by these noises. But if they go out of doors into the wind, they will not hear these sounds so well, because what our ears can hear is not the wind, but the sounds which are made by trembling and vibrating.
