flight engineer. She married during her training. Her husband, Hawlay, is also an astronaut. They do not
plan to have any children yet. When NASA decided to put a woman into space, none of Sally’s friends were

Water on the earth is being recycled continuously in a process known as the hydrologic cycle. The first
step of the cycle is the evaporation of water in the oceans. Evaporation is the process of water turning into
vapor, which then forms clouds in the sky. The second step is the water returning to the earth in the form of
precipitation; either rain snow or ice When the water reaches the earth’s surface, it runs off into the rivers,
lakes, and the oceans, where the cycle begins again.
Not all water. however. stays on the surface of the earth in the hydrologic cycle. Some of it seeps
into the ground through infiltration and collects under the earth’s surface as groundwater. This groundwater
is extremely important to life on earth. since 95 percent of the earth’s water is in the ocean and is too salty
for human beings or plants. Of 5 percent on land. only. 0.5 percent is above ground in rivers or lakes. The
rest is underground water. This ground water is plentiful and dependable, because it doesn’t depend on
seasonal rain or snow. lt is the major source of water for many cities. But as the population increases and the
need for water also increases. the groundwater in some areas is getting dangerously low. Added to this
problem is an increasing amount of pollution that seeps into the groundwater.
ln the future. with a growing _population and more toxic waste. the hydrologic cycle we depend on
could become dangerously imbalanced.
21. Clouds are formed from
A. Water vapor B. evaporation .C. the hydrologic cycle D. ground water
22. Water returns to the earth by
A. infiltration B. pollution C. precipitation D. evaporation
23. The amount of groundwater is
A. about 95 percent of all water
B. less than 5 percent of all water
C. 0.5 percent of above-ground water
D. 95 percent of above-ground water
24. The supply of groundwater is getting low because of
A. conservation B. toxic waste C. pollution D. population increase
25. The best title for this passage is
A. Water conservation B. The hydrologic cycle
C. Underground Water D. Polluted Groundwater
