A flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land, a deluge. In
the sense of "flowing water", the word is applied to the inflow of the tide, as opposed to
the outflow or "ebb". It is usually due to the volume of water within a body of water, such
as a river or lake, exceeding the total capacity of the body, and as a result some of the
water flows or sits outside of the normal perimeter of the body. It can also occur in rivers,
when the strength of the river is so high it flows right out of the river channel, usually at
corners or meanders. These of course, are not applicable in such instances as sea
flooding.
A flood occurs when an area of land, usually low-lying, is covered with water. The
worst floods usually occur when a river overflows its banks. Floods happen when soil and
vegetation cannot absorb all the water. The water then runs off the land in quantities
that cannot be carried in stream channels or kept in natural ponds or man-made
reservoirs.
Periodic floods occur naturally on many rivers, forming an area known as the
flood plain. These river floods usually result from heavy rain, sometimes combined with
melting snow, which causes the rivers to overflow their banks. A flood that rises and falls
rapidly with little or no advance warning is called a flash flood. Flash floods usually result
from intense rainfall over a relatively small area, as happened in 2007 with the Sudan
floods. Coastal areas are occasionally flooded by high tides caused by severe winds on
ocean surfaces, or by tsunami waves caused by undersea earthquakes.
21. The text tells us about .
a. rain.
b. flood.
c. tsunami.
d. sea flooding.
22. What is flash flood?
a. A flood that rises and falls rapidly with little or no advance warning.
b. It is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land.
c. A flood that occurs because of melting snow.
d. The water that runs off the land.
23. Why may periodic flood happen?
a. It occurs naturally in many rivers.
b. It is the result of intense rainfall in a certain area.
c. The soil and vegetation are not able to absorb the water.
d. It is the result of the combination of heavy rain and melting snow.

The Stingy and the Generous
Long, long time ago there lived two brothers. They had completely different
characters. The big brother was very stingy and greedy. He never shared his wealth with
poor people. The little brother was exactly the opposite. He was generous and kind to
poor people. He even had no money left because he had shared it with the poor.
One day the generous brother was sitting in his garden when suddenly a little bird fell
on his lap. It was wounded. He took care of it, fed it, and put it in a nice cage. After the
bird was healthy, the generous brother let it fly. After some time the bird returned to him
and gave him a watermelon seed.
The generous brother, then, planted the seed and watered it until it grew into a good
watermelon plant. Yet, the plant was very strange. It had only one fruit; a big and heavy
one. When the watermelon was ripe enough, the generous brother picked it and cut it
into two. How surprised he was. The watermelon was full of gold.

bought a very large field. Still, he never forgot to share his wealth with the poor.
