Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to the following questions.
Lake Baikal, the world’s largest lake, is located in southern Siberia, in Russia. It measures 395 miles of
coastline. The lake’s rocky basin consists of three depressions, which hold a total volume of 14,656 cubic miles
of water, 20 percent of the freshwater in the world. The lake is also very deep, with its deepest point at over 1
mile and an average depth of 2,066 feet. Furthermore, scientists have determined that Lake Baikal is the oldest
lake in the world. From sediment obtained by drilling deep down below the lake, researchers estimate it to be at
least 25 million years old.
To scientists, Lake Baikal is of particular interest because of its unique and isolated ecosystem. More than
1,000 species of plants and animals found at Lake Baikal exist nowhere else on earth and some can be dated to
prehistoric times. Among its unique fauna is the Baikal freshwater seal. This creature, which local people call
nerpa, is the only mammal which inhabits the lake. Researchers speculate that these seals, which have been
breeding at Lake Baikal for 22 million years, are the descendents of ocean -dwelling seals which migrated
inland in search of food, when the lake was still connected to the sea. Another creature that is unique to this
Siberian Lake is the omu, a fish, which is caught by local fisherman and is considered a great delicacy.
For centuries, the water in Lake Baikal was so clear that it was possible to see down to depths of 40 to 60
feet. First, the lake contained certain small zooplankton and small crustaceans that consumed waterweeds,
bacteria, and other material that would otherwise cloud the water. Furthermore, the water in the lake consisted
of rainwater and melted snow that flowed down from a mountain range in about 300 streams and through
uninhabited forest. Finally, most of the watershed has a rocky surface, so the water flowing into the lake did not
accumulate mud or organic matter and had little mineral or chemical content.
Câu 71: The word “which” in the first paragraph refers to __ .
A. the rocky basin B. the lake
C. the total water volume D. three depressions
