In the process of moving air and water from one place to another, weather is created. Weather varies from day to day because circulation is constantly changing. But variable as it is, circulation tends to follow certain patterns. A zone of rising air is usually found near the equator, causing frequent heavy rains. Over northern Africa the air usually descends, causing clear skies and aridity. In the mid-latitudes the air tends to move from west to east most of the time, and less often in other directions. In southern and eastern Asia the wind blows from the land to the ocean in winter, and from the ocean to the land in summer, causing intense monsoon rains.

Question 2

Keeping a journal is always a personal endeavor and should serve personal needs. Many people use journals to record their impressions of daily events and people that they meet. Serious readers and students sometimes keep reading journals, or they record in their personal journal what they have been reading. Exactly what they record in these reading journals is determined by their needs. Will they be writing essays about the readings or taking tests? Do they merely want a record of what they read because they have a goal of reading all of one writer's mystery novels? Do they write their own stories and are studying the ways various writers handle plot or character, and so forth? Since everyone might have different reasons for keeping a reading journal, each person needs to decide how to make the practice personally profitable.
