MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Please Don't Cry
What makes tears come from your eyes? There is a little gland in your head above each eye. The glands are about the size of almonds. These glands have a very important job to do for you.
The glands are there to keep your eyeballs wet. Your eyeballs could not move around the way they do if they were dry. There are tiny holes in your eyelid to carry the water to the eyeball.
Water that is not needed by the eye has to go somewhere. There is a tiny drain in the the corner of your eye. Every once in awhile, water is spread over the eyeball. The extra water goes down the little drain near you nose.
Sometimes, something causes the gland to make too much water. This happens when you are very sad or happy. It even happens when you peel onions. Then there is too much water for the little drain, and you cry.
True or False?
Two little glands make water for your eyes.
True
False
