GREAT LAKES OF THE WORLD

The oldest lake in the world Lake Baikal is 25-30 million years old-the oldest lake in the world. It holds 20 percent of the planet's surface freshwater. It is 650km long and nearly 2km deep.

Lake Baikal is in eastern Shiberia where the winters are very cold. Temperatures average minus 20 degrees. The lake freezes for five months or more of the year. The ice is 1,2m thick, and trucks drive across the lake when it freezes.

The lake has more than 1,200 species of animals and 1,000 species of plants.

It is home to the world's only freshwater seal, the nerpa. There are approximately 50,000 nerpas in the lake. Nerpas can dive down 300m to catch fish!

Giant Lakes

The world's largest lake in the Caspian Sea in south-west Asia. It is 370,000 sq km. It is salt water and not freshwater. The world's largest freshwater lake is Lake Superior, one of the Great Lakes of North America. These lakes are the biggest mass of freshwater in the world.

Stories about lakes

Scotland's Loch Ness is famous for its 'monster', and is only 230m deep. But Lake Nicaragua in Central America is home to the dangerous bull shark, which is more than 3m long. The sharks swim up and down the San Juan River into the Caribbean Sea.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on  your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 52.

A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater, one of the world’s largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake  Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warned by geothermal heat from the earth’s core. This thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from frigid temperatures (the lowest ever recorded on Earth) on the surface.

The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area. Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake.

The discovery of such a huge fresh water lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated sampled from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this

Chicago, where I am from, is called "the Windy City." In the winter a cold wind blows off Lake Michigan and it snows a lot. The temperature gets very cold, sometimes below zero. In the spring the weather is great. It's warm and the snow melts. People enjoy gardening and start to play outdoor sports like basketball and baseball. In the summer it's hot and sometimes humid. People swim and turn on their air conditioners to keep cool. Sometimes it rains or we get thunderstorms. In the fall it's cool. People prepare for winter and buy warm clothes like coats and hats. The leaves change colours and fall from the trees. It's very beautiful.
Statement:

The leaves change colours in the winter in Chicago.
