Precipitation is water released from clouds in the form of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow,
or hail. It is the primary connection in the water cycle that provides for the delivery of
atmospheric water to the Earth. Most precipitation falls as rain.
The clouds floating overhead contain water vapor and cloud droplets, which are small
drops of condensed water. These droplets are far too small to fall as precipitation, but they are
large enough to form visible clouds. Water is continually evaporating and condensing in the
sky. If you look closely at a cloud you can see some parts disappearing (evaporating) while
other parts are growing (condensation). Most of the condensed water in clouds does not fall as
precipitation because their downward speed is not large enough to overcome updrafts which
support the clouds. For precipitation to happen, first, tiny water droplets must condense on even
tinier dust, salt, or smoke particles, which act as nucleus. Water droplets may grow as a result
of additional condensation of water vapor when the particles collide. If enough collisions occur
to produce a droplet with a downward velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it
will fall out of the cloud as precipitation. This is not a trivial process, since millions of cloud
droplets are required to produce a single raindrop. A more efficient mechanism (known as the
Bergeron-Findeisen process) for producing a precipitation-sized drop is through a process
which leads to the rapid growth of ice crystals at the expense of the water vapor present in a
cloud. These crystals may fall as snow, or melt and fall as rain.
10. “… To produce a droplet with a downward velocity which exceeds the cloud…”

A. Distance
B. Velour
C. Speed

Dear Susan,
I hope all is well with you. It has been ages since we saw you here in Bali.

after all. Let me know if you can make it, and please don’t worry if you can’t. Inform me any
weekend before then is fine.
We are all in good condition from here. Very busy trying to get Ryan organized. I will miss him
while he is away. I do hope your family are well as well.
Love,

Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from? In this article we'll enter the amazing
world of chocolate so we can understand exactly how chocoltae is made.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions,
especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a
fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside the fruit are the tree's seeds, also known as
cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate
maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavor. Different beans
from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to
produce a distinctive mix.
Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean
from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The
liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.
All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans
are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid. It's pure bitter chocolate.
16. The cacao tree grows in equatorial region, for example: Indonesia.
A. TRUE
B. FALSE
18. Before shipping to the chocolate maker, the beans are fermented for seven days.
A. TRUE
B. FALSE
19. Roasting is the first process done by chocolate maker to make chocolate.
A. TRUE
B. FALSE
