A
The Water Cycle
The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, is the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth.
The sun heats up water in rivers, lakes, and oceans. This causes the water to evaporate and turn into water vapor. The water vapor rises into the air. As it goes higher, the air gets cooler. The cooler air makes the water vapor condense into tiny water droplets. These droplets form clouds.
When the water droplets in the clouds get too heavy, they fall back to the Earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. This is called precipitation.
Some of the precipitation soaks into the ground and becomes groundwater. Some of it runs off into rivers, lakes, and oceans. And the cycle starts all over again.
The water cycle is very important. It helps to distribute water around the Earth. It also helps to purify water. The sun's heat and the process of evaporation and condensation remove impurities from the water.
26. What is another name for the water cycle?
A. The hydrologic cycle. B. The water movement.
C. The water distribution. D. The water purification.
27. What causes water to evaporate?
A. The moon. B. The Earth. C. The sun. D. The wind.
28. What happens when water vapor rises into the air?
A. It gets warmer. B. It gets cooler. C. It stays the same temperature. D. It disappears.
29. What is precipitation?
A. The process of water evaporating. B. The process of water condensing. C. Rain, snow, sleet, or hail falling from the clouds. D. The movement of water in rivers and lakes.
30. Why is the water cycle important?
A. It helps to distribute water around the Earth. B. It helps to purify water. C. Both A and B. D. None of the above.
B
Water Pollution
Water pollution is a serious problem around the world. It is the contamination of water bodies such as lakes, rivers, oceans, and groundwater.
There are many causes of water pollution. One of the main causes is industrial waste. Factories often dump harmful chemicals and waste products into water bodies. This can make the water toxic and dangerous for plants, animals, and humans.
Another cause is agricultural runoff. Farmers use fertilizers and pesticides on their crops. When it rains, these chemicals can wash into rivers and lakes, polluting the water.
Sewage and wastewater are also big problems. If sewage is not properly treated, it can contain harmful bacteria and viruses. This can cause diseases when people come into contact with the polluted water.
Water pollution has many bad effects. It can kill fish and other aquatic animals. It can also make the water unfit for human use, such as for drinking, swimming, and fishing.
To solve the problem of water pollution, we need to take action. Governments should make stricter laws to control industrial waste and agricultural runoff. We should also improve sewage treatment systems. And we, as individuals, can do our part by reducing waste and using environmentally friendly products.
31. What is water pollution?
A. The evaporation of water. B. The contamination of water bodies. C. The purification of water. D. The movement of water in the water cycle.
32. What is one of the main causes of water pollution?

35. What can we do to solve the problem of water pollution?
A. Governments should make stricter laws. B. We should improve sewage treatment systems. C. We can reduce waste and use environmentally friendly products. D. All of the above.

Saving Water
Water is a precious resource, but many people don't realize how much water they waste every day. Here are some simple ways to save water.
First, fix any leaky faucets or pipes in your home. A small leak can waste a large amount of water over time.
Second, take shorter showers. A five - minute shower uses less water than a long bath. You can also install a low - flow showerhead to reduce water usage.
Third, turn off the tap when you are brushing your teeth or washing your hands. Only turn it on when you need to rinse.
Fourth, collect rainwater. You can use a barrel to collect rainwater and use it to water your plants or wash your car.
Fifth, use a dishwasher or washing machine only when they are full. This can save a lot of water compared to running them half - full.
By following these simple tips, we can all do our part to save water and protect this important resource.
36. Why is it important to save water?
A. Because water is expensive. B. Because water is a precious resource. C. Because water is easy to get. D. Because water is everywhere.
37. What should you do if you have a leaky faucet?
