Quiz on Oarfish Discovery

One day, a woman named Jasmine found a five-meter long oarfish as she was snorkeling in the sea. The silver fish had reddish fins and eyes the size of a coin.

At first, she was afraid to approach the fish, but when she found that it was an oarfish, she knew it was harmless. When she realized that the fish was dead, she dragged the carcass to the shore.

She swam around 15 minutes while dragging the 180kg carcass. Then, she asked help from others to lift the fish out of the water. It was an amazing discovery because although the creatures are found in all temperatures, in tropical waters they are rarely seen, it is because they usually dive to the depths of over 900m.

What did Jasmine see while she was snorkeling?

• A fish's tail.

• A half dollar.

• Reddish fins.

• An oarfish carcass.

Visiting Banaran Coffee

We visited Banaran Cofee last week. It is a resort in our town. I went there with my brothers, my mother and my friends. We left the house at about ten in the morning. My older brother drove the car fast. Soon we arrived at the resort. We were so excited to see the beauty of the resort. First, we had a coffee plantation trip on a mini train. We went up and down the hill. From the hill we can see the beauty of the Rawa Pening or Pening Lake. Then, we flew high on the flying fox. At first, I was afraid to fall, but my brothers told me that the string was strong enough to hold. After that, we had lunch on the top of the hill. My friends and I played on the swing while waiting for our meal. It was a lot of fun.
