A Message From Mother Nature?

1. What is the main point of this article?
- The main point of this article is how the global warming effects the environment
2. Vocabularies:
- Drought- a period of dry weather
- Monsoon- any wind that changes direction with the seasons
- Dispute- argument about something important
- Perception- apprehending (understanding)
3. Weather- something that happens over a short period of time (rain, snow, etc.)
   Climate- something that happens over a long period of time (Vietnam: wet and dry climate)
4. Torrential monsoon rains in Pakistan caused flood
    In the United States, flooding battered New England, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Oklahoma
    A record-breaking heat wave baked the entire eastern part of the country
5. These days in Ho Chi Minh City it rains everyday, and almost like heavy rain, so even some of the streets are flood.
6. Perception means understanding something.
7. My perception of global climate change is the Earth’s get hotter. If people don't want global warming to happen, they have to start to save the earth by doing little things like: save energy (use less), stop cutting down the trees, reuse the papers, water bottle, boxes, and more. By doing these little jobs, it saves the Earth a lot.
