READING COMPREHENSION (1 MARK)

Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each question.
The hit movie Finding Nemo follows a clownfish that is scooped up from the Great Barrier Reef.
In real life, clownfish are among the thousands of colorful sea creatures that call the Great Barrier Reef
home.
Stretching 1,250 miles along Australia’s northeastern coast, the Great Barrier Reef is the longest
coral reef in the world. A coral reef is a living underwater structure. But these days, the Great Barrier
Reef has found itself in trouble. Overfishing, pollution, and high temperatures are harming its health.
That’s why the government in Australia is trying to help rescue the reef.
While coral may look like a plant, it is actually made up of tiny sea animals. Those sea animals
are called coral polyps. As polyps die, they leave hard shells behind. Other polyps grow on top of the
shells. Over thousands of years, they form a coral reef in warm water that is not very deep.
In many ways, the Great Barrier Reef resembles an underwater garden. Coral can be hard or
soft. It forms in different colors and in strange shapes. Some coral looks like hardened brains. Other
coral looks like fans and lettuces. The reef bursts with schools of tropical fish, darting among gaps in
the coral.
The reef supplies food and shelter to creatures living in and around the coral. Turtles, sharks,
sea horses, and crabs are among its many inhabitants.
While the reef is important to ocean life, it helps humans, too. People rely on the reef for both
food and jobs. It also provides medicine used to treat disease. Each year, Great Barrier Reef contributes
about $975 million to the economy through tourism and fishing.

A. in northwestern coast of Australia B. in southeastern coast of Australia
