Water heats up more slowly than land, but once it has become warm it takes longer to46down. If the Earths surface wereentirely land, the temperature at night would fall quite quickly and night would be mu

42、ch colderthan day, as it is on the moon. This does 47 happen in inland deserts, hundreds of miles from any sea. The climate of the continents, especially in the temperate zones, is very much affected by the oceans around them. The areas close to the sea have a maritime climate, 48rathercool summersa

43、ndwarmwinters.The interiors,farfromthesea, have acontinental climate with extremely hot summers and cold winters.Rain49from the evaporation of rivers, seas and lakes.

The air is then saturated, like a sponge that cannot hold51more water. The lowerthe temperature, the less water vapour

45、is required to saturate the air.All over the surface of the Earth, millions of tons of water are52every second, condensing in the air into drops so small that it takes thousands of them to make a single raindrop.

46、land, they are forced to rise and become cooler in the colder upper atmosphere. As the air cools down it may pass through its saturation point and54some of its water vapour turns to rain. Day in, dayout, the same water circulates between the air and the land: rivers55to make clouds, clouds make rain

47、, rain makes rivers which in turn run into the sea. This is called the rain cycle.46. A. holdB. keepC. coolD. let47. A. notB. indeedC. onlyD. certainly48. A. withB. because ofC. inD. instead of49.
