future hurricanes will cause more damage as higher as sea levels exacerbate storm surges,
flooding and erosion.

becomes moist. It starts to form a column and forms a spiral around it. The system is
called a cyclone.

_______ 7. Looking like giant mole hills, the Chocolate Hills are probably Bohol’s most
famous tourist attraction. Most people who first see the landscape in pictures can hardly
believe that these hills are natural artifact or not man-made. If this idea is true, then the
effort of building them surely surpasses the construction of the pyramids in Egypt. The
hills are no less than 1268 in number. Uniform in shape, they are between 30 and 50
meters high. They are covered with grass, which at the end of the dry season, turns into
chocolate brown. It is from this color that the name Chocolate Hills was derived.

______ 8. Clouds are collections of millions of water droplets or ice crystals. They are
formed high above the earth’s surface and sometimes at ground level. The 3 main forms
of clouds are cumulus, stratus, and cirrus. Their shapes are clues to predicting weather.
Cumulus clouds are puffy with broad, flat bases. A few small cumulus clouds signal fair
weather. But, tall, bulky cumulus clouds called cumulonimbus can produce
thunderstorms. Stratus clouds are flat, sheet-like clouds. They normally mean warm or
possibly wet weather. Cirrus clouds are wispy clouds found at great heights. Full of ice
crystals, these clouds often indicate stormy weather. So, the next time you leave the
house, look up the sky, observe the clouds, and find out whether you will bring an
umbrella or pack up a raincoat.

______ 9. Both reading books at home and going on a vacation are fun. Through reading,
you meet new people and see new places at less expense. When you don’t feel like
interacting with your new friends, you just stop reading. On the other hand, going on a
vacation gives you the opportunity to meet new people in the flesh and see new places
with your eyes but you have to spend much for your fare, your food, and the entrance
tickets to the tourist spots. Besides, when your newfound friends become bothersome,
you cannot get away from them easily.
