26. Rain is advantageous because it brings water for all living things. But rain
can be disastrous, too, because too much rain will cause floods which can wash
away people, houses and other valuable properties.
The following is how rain is formed. The air is filled with tiny particles known as
vapour. Vapour is actually the gaseous form of water.
Vapour is a part of air. The air around us is constantly moving because the
air near the surface of the earth is hotter and lighter. This is why this air rises.
The air higher up in the sky is cold and heavy, so it sinks. The rising of hot air
and the sinking of cold water cause the air to move. When the hot air rises to a
certain level, the vapour presents in it, cools and changes to water. This is
known as condensation. When the water particles are too heavy for the air to
carry, the air is said to be oversaturated. The water particles then fall as rain.
