Hurricanes & Tornadoes
There are many winds in the world. There are differences between them in speed, average width of storm, and starting point. I will write about hurricanes and tornadoes.
For starters, hurricanes are speedier than tornadoes. The minimum speed for a hurricane is 74 mph and the maximum speed between 155-200 mph; however for a tornado the minimum speed is 40 mph and the maximum speed between 250-300 mph. The duration for the hurricane is one week average, while, for a tornado it lasts mostly a few minutes, and some up to a few hours. The width of a hurricane is 300 miles, whereas that of a tornado is about 100-600 meters. The hurricane starts over warm oceans, but the tornado usually over land.
In summary, there are differences between the hurricanes and tornadoes. A tornado is stronger than a hurricane in terms of wind speed.

Cars
There are many car companies in the world. The saloon cars are good cars. I am going to write about four different family cars.
The Volkswagen Golf is more expensive than the Toyota Corolla, Ford Focus, and Nissan Micra. The Volkswagen Golf is made in Germany and costs about $18250. The Toyota Corolla is made in Japan, the same as the Nissan Micra and the price for both is about the same $15500. The Ford Focus is made in the USA and costs about $15800. The Volkswagen Golf has the biggest size engine at 1600cc and it is a reasonably economical car, doing about 40 miles per gallon. The Toyota Corolla and Ford Focus have the same engine size, about 1400cc, and are nearly the same in fuel economy. The smallest engine size is 1200cc and the most economical car is the Nissan Micra.
In summary, the Volkswagen Golf is the best car in the engine size and fuel economy. I hope that the comparison is clear and not difficult to understand

Top Date-Producing Countries, 2001
In the world there are many countries producing dates. The bar chart shows Egypt the first country in producing dates in 2001.
In the 2001 research for producing dates, Egypt comes first and Iran comes second. But, Egypt is the only country which produced more than 1 million tonnes. The other countries produced less than 1 million tonnes. Algeria, Libya, Oman, and Sudan produced in 2001 nearly 850,000 tonnes and Iran produced the same as those countries combined. The UAE comes third in producing dates. Saudi Arabia comes after the UAE. The difference between them is approximately twenty five thousands tonnes. Pakistan and Iraq have the same production in tonnes.
In summary, the dates are most popular in those ten countries. There are many benefits of the dates. For this reason, these countries produce a lot of them. In 2001 Egypt came in first place in the list of countries that produced the dates.
