Death Valley,one of America's great national parks,is a place of strange and silent beauty. As beautiful as this place is, its name provides evidence(迹象)of very real danger. Death Valley is a land of beautiful yet dangerous extremes. There are mountains that reach more than 3,000 meters into the sky. "There is a place called Badwater that is the lowest area of land in the Western Hemisphere. If there were water there,it would be 86 meters below the level of the ocean.

Death Valley can be dangerously cold during the winter months. Storms in the mountains can produce sudden flooding on the floor of the Valley. The air temperature during the summer has been as high as 57℃. The sun can heat the ground so that the temperature of the rocks and soil can be as high as 74℃. The extreme heat of Death Valley has ever killed people. It will continue to kill those who do not honor this extreme climate. Death Valley does not forgive those who are not careful.

Death Valley is a good example of the violence(暴力)of nature. It contains evidence of several ancient volcanoes that caused huge explosions. Evidence of one of these explosions is called Ubehebe Crater. The explosion left a huge hole in the ground almost a kilometer and a half wide.

In many areas of Death Valley it is easy to see where the ground has been pushed up strongly by movement deep in the Earth. This movement has created unusual and beautiful rock formations. Some are red. Others are dark brown,gray,yellow or black. Other areas of rock look as if some huge creature heavily broke and twisted the Earth to create unusual, sometimes frightening shapes.

In other parts of Death Valley there are lines in the rock that show clearly that this area was deep under an ocean for many thousands of years. Much of the alley is flat and very dry. In fact, scientists believe it is the driest place in the United States.

Death Valley, part of the Great Mojave Desert, is a huge place. It extends more than 225 kilometers across the southern part of California, and across the border with Nevada.

Almost everyone has a piggy bank (储蓄罐), but did you ever wonder why people often make it in the shape of a pig?

Believe it or not, people made the piggy bank in the shape of a pig by mistake. In the Middle Ages, many containers (容器) at home were made of a kind of cheap clay (陶土) called pygg. The word “pygg” sounds the same as “pig”. At that time, there weren’t banks like we have today, so people would save their money at home in some clay containers. Because the kind of clay was called pygg, people called the containers pygg banks. Over time this became piggy banks. After several hundred years, people forgot that the word “pygg” meant a kind of clay.

The English language also changed. People used the word “pig” more commonly. So when English workers were asked to make “piggy banks”, they thought they needed to make containers in the shape of pigs. Surprisingly, the pig-shaped containers were popular.

Today piggy banks are made of all kinds of things, and they also come in different shapes and animals. But people still call those cute containers for money piggy banks.
