Death Valley is famous for its moving rocks. Since the early 1900s, visitors to Racetrack Playa, a dry lake bed in California, have wondered how the rocks can move on their own. These rocks leave long tracks(轨迹) behind them. The long tracks show that the rocks have moved along the ground. Those rocks move only at night and only move once every year or two. And they don't move at the same time or in the same direction(方向). But how do they move? How can a 350-kilogram rock move? Now scientists have known the key to the question! Here's how it happens. Death Valley is one of the hottest places in the world, but it is cold at night. When it rains, the hard ground becomes soft and wet. When it gets cold enough, the water on the ground will change into very thin ice. Then the strong wind can move flat rocks along the flat ground. In the morning, the sun comes up and dries the ground. Moving rocks can be found at other places in the world as well, but Death Valley is the most famous. 根据语篇内容, 选择最佳选项。 ( C )1.
