How does friction slow down a ball on a grassy surface?

When the ball encounters a blade of grass it causes the grass to move. The ball is effectively transferring its kinetic energy to the blade of grass. This transfer of energy occurs at each encounter with a blade of grass. Eventually the ball has transferred all of its energy to the grass and the ball stops. Since this transfer of energy is much less that 100% efficient, most of the energy from the ball is converted into heat via the resistance the grass has to bending, the grass sliding on neighboring blades of grass, the grass sliding on the ball itself, as well as complex interactions with the soil.

How does friction make things go faster?

For something to accelerate or go faster, a force needs to be applied to it. When you walk, your shoe wants to slide on the sidewalk, but the friction from the tiny bumps on both surfaces creates resistance that prevents this, and you move forward. The sidewalk friction is actually pushing back on your shoe so you accelerate forward. Hope that helps.

Why do rain clouds move faster?

They move faster then others because they have weight in them. It may not make sense, but try this: Take a marble and a bowling ball. Roll them both the same speed. Which one goes faster? It will be the bowling ball because it has more weight to it. Regular clouds do not have much weight to them, so they float through the sky slower then rain clouds.
