    Water covers most of our planet. People canfind it in oceans, lakes and rivers, and under the ground. Water moves in theenvironment by evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. The warm Sun helpswater change into vapour and rise up into the sky. It is evaporation. Thevapour in the air forms clouds in the sky. It is condensation. When the cloudsget heavy enough, the water falls back to the ground as rain or snow. This isprecipitation.

    Ocean water has too much salt in it. Muchof the water travels far over the land. When it travels over the land, thewater picks up salt from the rocks and soil. About 97.5% of the Earth's wateris salty water. It is expensive to take salt out of the water.

How to Improve English Listening and Speaking

As we know, English listening and speaking are really important in learning English. 

Mary did not understand such sentence as "She is blue today. ""You are yellow. ""He has a green thumb. ""He has told a little white lie. " and so on. And she went to her teacher for help. 

Mary: Mrs. Smith, there is a color in each of these sentences. What do they mean?

Mrs. Smith: In everyday English, Mary, blue sometimes means sad. Yellow means afraid. A person with a green thumb grows plants very well. And a white lie is not a bad one. 

Mary: Would you give me an example for "a white lie"?

Mrs. Smith: Certainly. Now I give you some cakes. In fact, you don't like it. What will you say?"

Mary: I will say "No, thanks. I'm not hungry. "

Mrs. Smith: That's a white lie. 

Mary: Oh, I see. Thank you very much.
