G At no point were we permitted to swim away on our own
Trang 5H I was right it was an incredible sight.
A Natural Wonder
When I was asked to visit and write about the Great Barrier Reef, I was thrilled I had heard reports of damage done by tourism and other industries, but felt that the Reef
would still be a wonderful place to see 0.H
From the air, the Great Barrier Reef seems huge 1………… I wasn’t sure how best
to explore such a giant place, so after I had landed, I made enquiries and was told the best way to see the Reef is to take a dive cruise I booked a place on a three-day cruise, and, despite warnings about the state of some of these boats, the boat I was on was comfortable
and clean 2……… I was entitled to eight dives plus use of wet suit, flippers and other
equipment, three meals a day and two nights’ accommodation
Although I have been diving before, I am not an experienced diver 3……….I was
nervous to begin with, but soon felt completely safe We were divided into groups
according to our ability and each group was given an instructor They had very strict rules
4……….
With our guides, we saw some amazing sea life including small sharks, crabs and thousands of colorful tropical fish swimming around in the coral The other divers were
friendly and the evenings on board were very pleasant 5…………
While I was at the Great Barrier Reef, it became perfectly clear from the
conservation programmers I came across; that the damage I had heard about had been
done 6……… Environmental groups have done much to stop this damage, but sadly it
continues
Despite this, the Great Barrier Reef is a wonderful place to go For me at least
it is one of the most significant natural wonders our earth has to offer

equipment repairs and maintenance so these television sets are sooner and later out of work Secondly these schools have not found an effective way to train teachers to integrate televisioninto their ongoing instructional programs Lastly, most teachers do not regard the quality of television and its usefulness in the classroom
