Water Cycle
Water on the earth is constantly on the move. It recycles over and
over again. This movement is called water cycle.
Precipitation occurs when there is so much water in the air. It cant
hold on to it anymore. It will rain, snow, sleet or hail. It fills up our lakes,
streams and oceans on the surface of the earth.
The earth also soaks up some of the water storing it in the ground
until it is needed. This storage area is called aquifer. Many people pumpwater directly from an underground aquifer and use it for their drinking
water.
When the sun comes out and heats up the water, it turns into vapor
or steam. Helping to add vapor are plants, trees and lands because they
lose water too. This is called transpiration.
When the vapor in the earth gets cold, it changes back to the liquid to
form clouds. This is called condensation. Those clouds get heavy and we
start all over again.
Considering the complexity of water cycle and the important of it,
lets appreciate and use water efficiently.

Cloning of Animals: Allowed or not allowed
In this modern era, technology has developed to such a certain
degree that scientists are able to create new forms of life. One of them is
cloning. The debate whether cloning of animals should be allowed or not
seems endless.Those who agree with cloning of animals usually argue that the cells
produced from them can be used to stop animals from becoming extinct.
They also add that cloning has a purpose to produce high quality of cells.
Many species are becoming rarer and rarer. Scientists are concerned
if they dont do something to save certain species, these animals will be
extinct forever and this would be a big loss for the animal kingdom. For this
reason, researchers have improved cloning technology so that many rare
species can be successfully cloned.
However, not everyone is excited about cloning animals. Some
people feel that it could have terrible consequences.

For example, if dinosaurs are cloned, then men could be extinct. It is
clear that these ferocious beasts cannot live together with humans. In
history, these creatures lived several thousand years before men appeared.
Can you imagine these giant killing creatures living within the same era and
on the same planet with us?As a result of this controversy, people still havent got the answer yet
for cloning animals. Moreover, some members of the scientific community
think that the banning of cloning technology will destroy the creativity of
science.

1. What is the text tell us about ?

Cloning at animals can be used to prevent the species from
extinction.
3. What does the writer want with his/her text ?
The writer wants his/her text to present opinions from two points ofview about cloning at animal.
4. What is the structure of the last paragraph ?
The structure of the last paragraph is conclusion.
