Read the following passage, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
What makes it rain? Rain falls from clouds for the same reason anything falls to Earth The Earth’s gravity pulls it But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals Why doesn’t rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are
exceedingly small The effect of gravity on them is minute Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net downward displacement is zero, even though the droplets are in constant motion
Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a shaft of
sunlight To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion moving
about chaotically without fixed direction But in fact dust particles are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall The cloud droplet of average size is only 1/2500 inch in diameter It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air, and it does not fall out of moving air at all Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 1/125 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud The average raindrop contains a million times
as much water as a tiny cloud droplet The growth of a cloud droplet to a size large enough to
fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation This important growth process
is called “coalescence”
Question43: What is the main topic of the passage?
A The mechanics of rain B The climate of North America
C How gravity affects agriculture D Types of clouds
Question44: Which of the following best replaces the word “minute” in paragraph 1?
Question45: What does “in constant motion” in paragraph 1 mean?
A moving all the time B always having feeling
Question46: Why don’t all ice crystals in clouds immediately fall to the Earth?
Trang 7A They are balanced by the pressure of rain droplets
B The effect of gravity at high altitude is random
C They are kept aloft by air currents
D The heat from the Sun’s rays melts them
Question47: What are water droplets?
A They are ice crystals B They are small drops of dew
C They are watery fruits D They are animals living on ice
Question48: What can be inferred about drops of water larger than 1/125 inch in diameter?
A They never occur
B They are not affected by the force of gravity
C In still air they would fall to the ground
D In moving air they fall at a speed of thirty-two miles per hour
Question49: What is the diameter of the average cloud droplet?
