Answer 1

a). A kettle

b). A refrigerator

Answer 2

a. The answer to this riddle is a whistling kettle. When water is boiling inside the kettle, it starts to produce steam, which causes the lid of the kettle to rattle and make a whistling noise. The line "why are they torturing me for nothing" is a bit of a play on words - the kettle is being heated up and producing steam, but it's not really being tortured, it's just doing what it's designed to do.

b. The answer to this riddle is a refrigerator or freezer. The reference to "Jack Frost" is a nod to the fact that these appliances keep things cold, and frost can sometimes accumulate inside them. The line "all the year round" suggests that the appliance is in use constantly, regardless of the season.
