Practice Listening: Fill in the Blanks (Type In) ID: #48707 Long Thunderstorm
Instructions
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
Three  basic  ingredients  are  required  for  a  thunderstorm  to  form:  moisture,  rising  unstable  air,  and  a  lifting  .  The  sun  heats  the  surface  of  the  earth,  which  warms  the  air  above  it.  If  this  warm  surface  air  is  forced  to  rise,  it  will  continue  to  rise  as  long  as  it  weighs  less  and  stays  warmer  than  the  air  around  it.  As  the  air  rises,  it    heat  from  the  surface  of  the  earth  to  the  upper  levels  of  the  atmosphere.  The  water  vapor  it  contains  begins  to  cool,  releasing  the  heat,  and  it    into  a  cloud.  The  cloud  eventually  grows  upward  into  areas  where  the  temperature  is  below  freezing.  Some  of  the  water  vapor  turns  to  ice  and  some  of  it  turns  into  water  droplets.  Both  have  electrical  charges.  Ice  particles  usually  have    charges,  and  rain  droplets  usually  have  negative  charges.
