4 Reading Say: Read the story. Then answer the questions that follow. Fill in the correct circle. Green Sea Turtles 1 It is night. A mother green sea turtle crawls from the ocean and slowly makes her way up on the beach. It is hard work. Her flippers are good for swimming, but not for pulling her large weight across the sand. Finally, she makes it and starts to dig a hole. In the hole, she buries 100 eggs. Then she covers the hole with sand. She is exhausted, but she crawls slowly back to the ocean. 2 In about two months, baby sea turtles hatch from the eggs. They start to dig out of the sand, but the sand feels hot. They wait. When the sand feels cool, they know it is night. Then they dig out and rush for the ocean, but some don t make it. Crabs or birds eat them. When they finally reach the ocean, fish eat many more of them. Very few grow up to be big green sea turtles. Genre: Informational/Science Lexile Measure: 830L Word Count: UNIT 2 Listening/Reading/Writing The Continental Press, Inc.
5 Reading 3 Green sea turtles are reptiles. They can weigh up to 500 pounds and can live to be 60 years old. They live in the ocean, but they have to breathe air as people do. Usually the turtles come up for air every few minutes. But when they are sleeping, they can stay underwater for more than 2 hours. 4 These creatures are different than turtles that live on land. Their shells are lighter, so they can float. They cannot pull their heads into their shells for protection. Instead of legs, they have flippers for swimming. They can also swim hundreds of miles and can go as fast as 35 miles an hour. 5 The green turtle s shell is mostly brown. The animal eats plants, so its body fat is greenish. Also, its shell has green algae on it, so it looks green. Fish eat the algae from the turtle s shell. The fish get an easy meal, and the turtle gets a clean shell. When two animals help each other like this, it is called symbiosis. The Continental Press, Inc. UNIT 2 Listening/Reading/Writing 73
6 Reading 6 The green sea turtle has only two known predators sharks and people. Sharks like to eat these tasty turtles, and so do people. People also dig up the eggs for food and make jewelry and other things from the turtle s shell. The beaches where turtles lay their eggs are also changing. People build hotels and homes on the beaches. The sea turtles have no place to lay their eggs. 7 At one time there were millions of green sea turtles in oceans all over the world. Today, there are fewer than 200,000. These turtles have existed since dinosaurs roamed Earth 150 million years ago. Let s hope they don t ever die out. 1. What is this story about?
