Thursday
RIC
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to explore a hidden world? Deep beneath the ocean, strange creatures glow in the dark and move in ways we can barely imagine. What secrets are hiding down there? Could there be animals we have never even discovered?
The deep sea is one of the least explored places on Earth. It is cold, dark, and under enormous pressure-so who would dare to go there? Scientists use special submarines to investigate, but even they cannot reach every corner. What might be waiting just beyond their lights?
Perhaps one day, you could be the explorer who uncovers these mysteries. Would you be brave enough to dive into the unknown?
R- What do scientists use to explore the deep sea?
I- Why is the deep sea described as mysterious?
C-Why did the writer use the phrase “hidden world”?
