Directions: In the question below, the first and the last (correctly ordered) sentences are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the passage is split into four parts and named B, C, D and E. These four parts are not given in the proper order. Choose the correct combination among the four alternatives given.
- Land areas warm and cool more rapidly than water bodies do. B. It sometimes reduces maximum temperatures by 8 °C (15 °F) or more along a narrow coastal strip and greatly modifies the local climate. C. For that reason, cooler, denser air often flows from water to land (sea or lake breeze) during the day, and from land to water (land breeze) at night. D. Because the temperature contrast is usually greater during the day in summer, the sea breeze is the stronger. E. Similarly, a valley breeze is produced by rapid warming of the valley floor that causes the air to expand and flow up the slopes.
- The rising currents sometimes trigger thunderstorms over the mountains.
