A Cop’s Nightmare I served six years as a police officer. During our training, we were given a plastic gun and shown a "shoot/not shoot" video. In it a white man walked rapidly toward the recruits, reaching for his back pocket. We yelled, "Stop! Police! Show your hands!" He kept coming. Almost everyone in class fired as the man pulled out an object. It was a card that said he was deaf. It could just as easily have been a wallet. We all prayed we would never be in a real-life situation like this. A scene like that is every officer’s nightmare. (Bryan A. Brassell – Spring, Texas) Responda em português: 22.

Grandma told me: “The sun is what makes it happen. It warms up the earth. The warm air rises up. The air is full of tiny little drops of water that we call water vapour, and these make the clouds. Then the clouds rise up higher and get colder. When it is cold, the water vapour turns back into drops of water. When the drops are heavy enough they fall back down to earth as rain. The plants in the forest get wet and then they suck up the water with their roots. The water that is left over flows to the sea in streams and rivers. On the way, some of the water is turned into water vapour by the sun’s rays. That’s called evaporation. Water can evaporate from anywhere. It evaporates from the sea and the lakes just the same as the water in the earth. Thirsty plants suck up the water from the earth. But later on they put the water back into the air again. Water comes from animals and people too, when they breathe. And when the sun warms up the air and the water vapour, the air rises up and … when the air is full of little drops of water, that makes clouds. You know the rest.
