Answer these questions below based on the text given correctly.
Tsunami
Tsunami occurs when major fault under the ocean floor suddenly slips. The displaced rock pushes water above it like a giant paddle, producing powerful water waves at the ocean surface. The ocean waves spread out from the vicinity of the earthquake source and move across the ocean until they reach the coastline, where their height increases as they reach the continental shelf, the part of the earth crust that slopes, or rises, from the ocean floor up to the land.
A tsunami washes ashore with often disastrous effects such as severe flooding, loss of lives due to drowning and damage to property. A tsunami is a very large sea wave that is generated by a disturbance along the ocean floor. This disturbance can be an earthquake, a landslide, or a volcanic eruption. A tsunami is undetectable far out in the ocean, but once it reaches shallow water, this fast traveling wave grows very large.

Recycling is a collection, processing, and reuse of materials that would otherwise be thrown away. Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass, from old newspapers to plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims the original material and uses it in new products.
In general, using recycled materials to make new products costs less and requires less energy than using new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution, either by reducing the demand for high-pollution alternatives or by minimizing the amount of pollution produced during the manufacturing process.
Paper products that can be recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping paper, and office paper. The most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In newspaper recycling, old newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it is mixed with hot water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big kitchen blender. The pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The pulp then goes to a large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and fl oats to the surface. The ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or burned as boiler fuel. The cleaned pulp is mixed with new wood fibers to be made into paper again.
Experts estimate the average office worker generates about 5 kg of wastepaper per month. Every ton of paper that is recycled saves about 1.4 cum (about 50 cu ft) of landfill space. One ton of recycled paper saves 17 pulpwood trees (trees used to produce paper).

Human body is made up of countless millions of ceils. Food is needed to built up new cells and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to the places where they are needed. This process is called digestion. The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into smali pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passege) into the stomach. Here, the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours.

tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside the fruit are the tree's seeds, also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.

What is photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is a food- making process that occurs in green plants. It is the chief function of leaves. The word photosynthesis means putting together with light. Green plants use energy from light to combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugar and other chemical compounds. How is the light used in photosynthesis?
The light used in photosynthesis is absorbed by a green pigment called chlorophyll. Each food making cell in a plant leaf contains chlorophyll in small bodies called chloroplasts. In chloroplast, light energy causes water drawn form the soil to split into hydrogen and oxygen.
What are the steps of photosynthesis process? Let me tell you the process of photosynthesis, in a series of complicated steps, the hydrogen combines with carbon dioxide from the air, forming a simple sugar. Oxygen from the water molecules is given off in the process. From sugar together with nitrogen,

How a Plant Grows
Plants grow through a series of stages, starting from a seed and ending as a mature plant. The process of plant growth is influenced by several factors, including water, sunlight, soil, and air. Here's how it happens:
1. Germination: The growth process begins when a seed is
planted in the soil. The seed absorbs water from the soil, which causes it to swell. As the seed swells, the outer shell breaks open, and the tiny plant inside starts to emerge. This stage is called germination.
2. Root Growth: Once the seedling has broken open, it sends roots down into the soil to anchor itself and absorb water and nutrients. These roots are crucial for the plant's survival, as they provide the essential elements needed for growth.
3. Stem and Leaf Development: As the plant's roots establish themselves, the stem starts to grow upward, pushing through the soil. Leaves begin to form on the stem. These leaves piay a vital role in the next stage of growth by performing photosynthesis, the process where plants use sunlight to create food.
4. Photosynthesis: With the help of sunlight, the leaves
take in carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil. Using energy from the sun, they convert these materials into glucose (sugar), which provides food for the plant. This process is called photosynthesis.
5. Mature Plant: Over time, the plant continues to grow taller, develop more leaves, and strengthen its roots. Eventually, the plant beçornes a mature plant, capable of producing flowers and seeds. The cycle of geowth
producing flowers and seeds. The cycle of growth continues as the plant reproduces and spreads its seeds to grow new plants.
In conclusion, the process of plant growth begins with the germination of a seed and involves the development of roots, stems, leaves, and the important process of photosynthesis. All these stages are necessary for the plant to grow and eventually reproduce.

2. Write an explanation text telling about how rainbow is formed. Don't forget to make a draft and include passive voices in your text.
Answer:
How a Rainbow is Formed
A rainbow is a beautiful and colorful arc that appears in the sky when sunlight interacts with water droplets in the atmosphere. The process of how a rainbow is formed involves several steps, including the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of light. Here's an explanation of how this natural phenomenon occurs.
1. Refraction of Light
The process begins when sunlight enters a water droplet in the air. As sunlight passes from the air into the water, it slows down and bends. This bending of light is called refraction. Different colors in the sunlight bend by different amounts. For example, red light bends less than blue light, causing the different colors to spread out and form a spectrum.
2. Internal Reflection
After the light is refracted inside the droplet, it hits the inner surface of the droplet. At this point, the light is reflected off the inside surface of the droplet. This reflection causes the light to change direction and move back toward the other side of the droplet.
3. Dispersion of Colors
When the light exits the droplet, it is refracted again. This second bending of the light causes the different colors to spread even further apart. The light is split into a spectrum of colors, which include red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Each color is bent by a different amount, which is why we see them as distinct bands of color.
4. Formation of the Rainbow
Finally, the light exits the water droplet and travels toward the observer's eyes. The colors that we see in the rainbow are the result of this dispersion of light. The position of the rainbow depends on the angle at which the light is refracted and reflected inside the droplet. Typically, the light is reflected at an angle of about 42 degrees, which is why a rainbow appears as an arc in the sky.
In conclusion, a rainbow is formed when sunlight is refracted and reflected inside water droplets. The light is bent, split into its colors, and then reflected back toward the observer. The combination of these processes creates the vibrant, colorful arc that we recognize as a rainbow. This process occurs most often after a rainstorm or when the air is filled with moisture, making rainbows one of nature's most beautiful and fascinating displays.

2. Write an explanation text telling about how rainbow is formed. Don't forget to make a draft and include passive voices in your text.
Answer:
How a Rainbow is Formed
A rainbow is a beautiful and colorful arc that appears in the sky when sunlight interacts with water droplets in the atmosphere. The process of how a rainbow is formed involves several steps, including the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of light. Here's an explanation of how this natural phenomenon occurs.
1. Refraction of Light
The process begins when sunlight enters a water droplet in the air. As sunlight passes from the air into the water, it slows down and bends. This bending of light is called refraction. Different colors in the sunlight bend by different amounts. For example, red light bends less than blue light, causing the different colors to spread out and form a spectrum.
2. Internal Reflection
After the light is refracted inside the droplet, it hits the inner surface of the droplet. At this point, the light is reflected off the inside surface of the droplet. This reflection causes the light to change direction and move back toward the other side of the droplet.
3. Dispersion of Colors
When the light exits the droplet, it is refracted again. This second bending of the light causes the different colors to spread even further apart. The light is split into a spectrum of colors, which include red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Each color is bent by a different amount, which is why we see them as distinct bands of color.
4. Formation of the Rainbow
Finally, the light exits the water droplet and travels toward the observer's eyes. The colors that we see in the rainbow are the result of this dispersion of light. The position of the rainbow depends on the angle at which the light is refracted and reflected inside the droplet. Typically, the light is reflected at an angle of about 42 degrees, which is why a rainbow appears as an arc in the sky.
In conclusion, a rainbow is formed when sunlight is refracted and reflected inside water droplets. The light is bent, split into its colors, and then reflected back toward the observer. The combination of these processes creates the vibrant, colorful arc that we recognize as a rainbow. This process occurs most often after a rainstorm or when the air is filled with moisture, making rainbows one of nature's most beautiful and fascinating displays.
