Last year I left New Zealand for Bunaken Island. I went there with a group of New Zealand divers. Getting there was not quite easy.

Soon after our arrival at Bunaken, we got a general briefing. It included a description about how to take pictures under water.

Then, we began our diving. In our diving, we saw groups of tiny fish. In order to identify them, we need a good guide. Without some knowledge of their habitat and behavior, it would be difficult.

In summary, the trip was mostly enjoyable. This place is so impressive with its marine life.

The following sentence is NOT TRUE based on the text above.

• The divers saw small fish.

• Reaching Bunaken was difficult.

• The trip was terrible.
