than a movie，but nothing they39。t do much on the beach，so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers．At least，Jake thought，they could help in some way．Back at the beach，they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed．It was getting dark．Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand．The rescuers would not give up．After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water．Everyone cheered when it headed out to sea．It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea．Then，in what looked like a jump of joy，it rose high above the water﹣a thank﹣you to those who had worked so hard to save his life．26．What does the picture on Jake39。t move B．went
