6. Read the passage:
The Himalayas, geologically young and structurally fold mountains stretch over the northern borders of
India. These mountain ranges run in a west-east direction from the Indus to the Brahmaputra. The
Himalayas represent the loftiest and one of the most rugged mountain barriers of the world. They form
an arc, which covers a distance of about 2,400 Km. Their width varies from 400 Km in Kashmir to 150 Km
in Arunachal Pradesh. The altitudinal variations are greater in the eastern half than those in the western
half. The Himalaya consists of three parallel ranges in its longitudinal extent. A number of valleys lie
between these ranges. The northern-most range is known as the Great or Inner Himalayas or the Himadri.
It is the most continuous range consisting of the loftiest peaks with an average height of 6,000 metres. It
contains all prominent Himalayan peaks.
