Answer the questions 20 24 based on the text below!

SEAHORSES

Just like a fish, a seahorse has a skeleton, gills and fins. Unlike other fish, however, it does not
have scales. Its body is covered with bony plates of amor. This heavy amor makes it hard for the
seahorse to swim.
A seahorse spends much of its time resting among the sea plants. It uses its prehensile tail to
anchor itself to the plants. When microscopic sea animals swim by, the seahorse quickly sucks them up
with its long snout.
Seahorse are clever at camouflaging themselves. They come in many colors. They can be
brown, red, yellow, black, grey, or white. They can also change their colors in the blink of an eye. This
makes it hard for the enemies like birds and crabs to see them.
The most unusual thing about seahorses though, is that male seahorses give birth! The male
seahorse has a pouch below his belly. The female places 150 to 200 eggs in this pouch. The male will
then fertilize the eggs. He keeps them safe until they become fully-formed baby seahorses. Baby
seahorses must look after themselves as soon as the are born.
In many parts of the world, seahorses face danger. Pollution destroys their homes. People in
some Asian countries capture seahorses to make medicines. In North America, many people like to
catch seahorses and keep them in aquariums as pets. Nowadays, there are seahorse farms which
provide lots of seahorses for those who want to keep the seahorses as their pets.

20. What is the purpose of the writer writing the text?
a. To describe seahorse in common. c. To describe the life of seahorse.
b. To describe seahorse in specific. d. To describe the baby of seahorse.

21. What does a seahorse do to protect itself?
a. It changes its shape . c. It swims away quickly.

Earthquakes
Everyday about two hundred and fifty earthquakes take place around the globe. In total, one
million earthquakes occur each year. The death toll resulting from this violent act of nature amounts to
about fourteen thousand annually.
How does this natural disaster come about? The earths crust is made up of plates of rocks. It is
unstable so there is constant movement among these plates. This causes strains on the crust until
violent shocks which we call earthquakes result.
Earthquakes can be measured with a seismograph. This is a sensitive apparatus which records
the intensity of the earthquake. Anearthquake is measured on scale of one to ten.
A large earthquake can release energy as much as two hundred millions tones of explosives.
Although scientists are able to use these instruments to predict earthquakes, they are never accurate
100%. Thus, the only way to prepare for an earthquake is to design better earthquake resistant
buildings.
