Mama called many of my sister’s friends. When my little sister saw how worried everyone was, she started to cry. When the baby heard my sister cry, he started crying too. Mama rushed to pick him up and tripped on the rug. She hurt her leg. Just then, my sister walked in. “I’m sorry,” my sister said. I was with Diana, and we took her dog for a long walk. I didn’t realize how late it was.” When she saw what had happened, my sister was very sorry. Now she never forgets to call.

You can’t see it, but the water cycle is always in motion on the earth. This series of events goes around and round, again and again, providing clean, fresh water for the land and seas. As water goes through this cycle, it is sometimes solid ice, sometimes liquid water, and sometimes a gas called water vapor. The energy that drives the water cycle is heat. When heat is added to ice, the ice melts into water. When heat is added to water, the water evaporates, turning from liquid into gas. When heat is taken away from water vapor, the vapor condenses, turning from gas into liquid. When heat is taken away from water, the water freezes, turning from liquid to solid. The heat from the sun warms the water in oceans and rivers. The water changes into water vapor that rises into the air. High above the earth, the water vapor cools and becomes tiny particles of water that create clouds. As the clouds gather more and more particles of water, the water falls as rain or snow, which are two forms of precipitation. This precipitation is absorbed into the ground or is added to the water in oceans, lakes, and rivers. The cycle is always, constantly, in process, everywhere in the world. 

6. What is the effect when water in the oceans and rivers is heated by the sun?

A. condensation B. evaporation C. precipitation
