Fill the blank with right subject or verb of the text.

Lightning occurs in hot, wet storms. Moist air is driven up to a great height. It
forms a type of cloud called cumulonimbus. When the cloud rises high enough, the
moisture freezes and ice crystals and snow flakes are formed. These begin to fall,
turning to rain on the way down. This rain meets more moist air rising, and it is the
2

friction between them which produces static electricity. When a cloud is fully
charged with this electricity, it discharges it as a lightning flash.
