Temperature

Emma:  What is cold?
Carina:  Cold is when the temperature goes down.
Emma:  What is temperature?
Carina:  I knew you were going to ask that.  Well, temperature is how we measure whether it is cold or hot.
Emma:  But what is cold?
Carina:  Well, if you want to get technical, cold is when your molecules slow down.
Emma:  Oh.
