The Great Basin is surrounded on the west bythe Sierra Nevada and on the east by the Rocky Mountains; it has no outlet to the sea. The prevailing winds inthe Great Basin are from the west. Warm, moist air from the Pacific Ocean is forced upward as it crosses theSierra Nevada. At the higher altitudes it cools and the moisture it carries is precipitated as rain or snow on thewestern slopes of the mountains. That which reaches the Basin is air wrung dry of moisture. What little waterfalls there as rain or snow, mostly in the winter months, evaporates on the broad, flat desert floors. It is,therefore, an environment in which organism battle for survival. Along the rare watercourses, cottonwoods andwillows eke out sparse existence. In the upland ranges, pinion pines and junipers struggle to hold their own. But the Great Basin has not always been so arid. Many of its dry, closed depressions were once filledwith water. Owens Valley, Panamint Valley, and Death Valley were once string of interconnected lakes. Thetwo largest of the ancient lakes of the Great Britain were Lake Lahontan and Lake Bonneville. The Great SaltLake is all that remains of the latter, and Pyramid Lake is one of the last briny remnants of the former There seem to have been several periods within the last tens of thousands of years when wateraccumulated in these basins. The rise and fall of the lakes were undoubtedly linked to the advances and retreatsof the great ice sheets that covered much of the northern part of the North American continent during thosetimes. Climatic changes during the Ice Ages sometimes brought cooler, wetter weather to mid-latitude desertsworldwide, including those of the Great Basin. The broken valleys of the Great Basin provided readyreceptacles for this moisture.Câu 18: What is the geographical relationship between the Basin and Range Province and the Great Basin?A.

The frankfurter (after the German city) is better known in the United States as the “hot dog, especiallywhen in its traditional presentation in long bread bun, and so popular is it that fourteen billion are eaten everyyear in the United States, equivalent to sixty for every man, woman, and child in the country includingvegetarians The contents are strictly governed by law, with the USDA requiring manufacturers to use musclemeat. In fact, heart, liver, and kidney may also be used but only if this is openly stated. Contents must beeighty-five percent meat, ten percent water, and 2. percent salt, with the remainder comprising spices andpreservatives.

After the sausages had been eaten, theyexpected the gloves to be returned, but the customers did not oblige. So the vendors began serving thefrankfurters in special bread buns. The idea caught on, and, ever since, the hot dog, served with all kinds of extras (mustard, ketchup,relish, onions, cheese, chili con carne, sauerkraut, …), has remained particularly welcome at ourdoor eventssuch as picnics, barbecues, and, above all, baseball games.Câu 44: According to the passage, ______.A. not all types of sausage are cookedB. there are over two hundred kinds of meat in sausagesC. wiener is the content of frankfurterD. the average American consumes eleven kilograms of frankfurters annuallyCâu 45: The word seasonings in line is closest in meaning to ______.A. condiments B. ingredients C. procedures D. colorsCâu 46: The main theme of the second paragraph is ______.A. frankfurter traditionsB. the popularity of frankfurtersC. laws governing the sale and contents of frankfurtersD.
