Question

Na podstawie tekstu opisz w skrócie przebieg kryzysu kubańskiego. W 1961 r. amerykanie podjęli próbę obalenia władzy Castro - wysadzili na Kubie desant złożony z lekko uzbrojonych kubańskich emigrantów z USA. Tak zwana inwazja w Zatoce

Świń - pozbawiona wsparcia lotniczego - zakończyła się jednak kompromitującą porażką. W odpowiedzi kubańscy komuniści zacieśnili relacje łączące ich z ZSRS. W 1962 r. Sowieci rozpoczęli potajemnie instalowanie na wyspie - zaledwie 200 km od terytorium USA - rakiet

z głowicami atomowymi. Działania te odkrył w 1962 r. amerykański samolot szpiegowski. Prezydent Kennedy nakazał blokadę wyspy i zagroził, że lotnictwo USA zbombarduje wyrzutnie, a także nie dopuści do Kuby zmierzającego tam kolejnego konwoju statków z bronią. Świat stanął

na krawędzi otwartego konfliktu między supermocarstwami. Groźba wybuchu wojny jądrowej wydawała się realna jak nigdy wcześniej.

W obliczu stanowczej reakcji Kenedy'ego Chruszczow zdecydował się na ustępstwa. Sowieckie wyrzutnie zostały wycofane z Kuby, a w zamian amerykanie obiecali, że nie podejmą więcej prób siłowego osunięcia Castro oraz zlikwidują swoje instalacje rakietowe w Turcji. Tzw. kubański

kryzys rakietowy został zażegnany.

Use the text below to answer the question

Matter consists of pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances include elements and

compounds, which are atoms from two or more elements chemically bonded. Mixtures

contain two or more substances that are combined but are not chemically bonded. If you

dissolve salt in water, for example, you create a mixture: saltwater. The salt and water are

still present, and their chemical compositions are the same after you mix them. If you add

heat to that mixture, the water changes in state from a liquid to a gas. After letting all the

water evaporate, you're left with the salt. That physical change separates your mixture back

into its two parts: water and salt. Neither creating nor separating a mixture results in a

chemical change.

In the passage above, what is the purpose of the underlined sentence?

A

to describe how one mixture can be separated

B

to show how seawater can be useful

C

to explain how to make your own salt

D
