Answer to Question 1

None of the mountain ranges in California are oriented in a northeast to southwest direction. However, there are mountain ranges in California that are arranged in a northwest to southeast direction. Those would be the Cascade Range, the Sierra Nevada, and the Coastal Ranges.

Answer to Question 2

Students can bring many examples from the text.
Cultural: Spanish/Mexican architecture, plaza towns, Tex-Mex and Mexican foods, Spanish language music, Spanish language signs along roadways, ornate Roman Catholic churches.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
