Task 2
Read the following text.
Evaporation
Solar energy evaporates exposed water from seas,
lakes, rivers, and wet soils; the majority of this evaporation takes place over
the seas. Water is also released into the atmosphere by the plants through
photosynthesis. During this process, known as evaporation, water vapour rises
into the atmosphere.
Clouds form when air becomes saturated with
water vapour. The two major types of cloud formation are stratified or layered
grey cloud called stratus, and billowing white or dark grey cloud called
cumulus. Nimbostratus clouds and cumulonimbus clouds are the two cloud types
that are associated with rainy weather, nimbostratus clouds will bring steady
rain, and cumulonimbus clouds will bring stormy weather.
Precipitation as rain or hail ensures that water
return to Earth’s surface in a fresh form. Some of this rain, however, falls
into the sea and is not accessible to human. When rain falls, it either washes
downhill slopes or seeps underground; when snow and hail melt, this water also
sink into the ground.
Rain fall also replenishes river water supplies,
as does by underground water. Snow fall may consolidate into glaciers, and ice
sheets which, when they melt, release their water into the ground, into the
stream or into the seas.
