    OCEANOS
    The ocean is the lifeblood of Earth, covering more than 70 percent of the
    planet’s surface, driving weather, regulating temperature, and ultimately
    supporting all living organisms by producing 70 percent of our planet’s oxygen.
    Throughout history, the ocean has been a vital source of sustenance, transport,
    commerce, growth, and inspiration. Yet, we’ve barely scratched the surface of
    the sea, a place that an estimated one million species of animals call home. The
    ocean is a mystery that still has so much discovering waiting to happen.

    Earth has one global ocean that is divided into four named ocean basins: the
    Pacific, Indian, Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Most countries now recognize the
    Southern (Antarctic) as the fifth ocean basin. The Pacific is the largest, covering
    30 percent of Earth. At its widest point, from Indonesia all the way to Colombia,
    the Pacific Ocean is wider than the moon, by quite a lot. This expanse of ocean
    is 12,300 miles across, which is more than five times the diameter of the moon.

    In the colder parts of the ocean, one finds massive icebergs. So big, in fact, that
    one iceberg can supply a million people with drinking water for five years. In the
    deepest parts of the ocean, the water temperature may be only 35–39 degrees
    Fahrenheit (2–4 degrees Celsius), with the exception of water coming out of
    hydrothermal vents in the seafloor. The water released from these vents can
    reach up to 750 degrees Fahrenheit (400 degrees Celsius). It’s the intense
    pressure at these depths — the same pressure that will crush you — that keeps
    the water from boiling.

    Only 5 percent of the ocean has been explored, which leaves up to 95 percent
    of the ocean that is unknown. This includes volcanoes, canyons, life and an
    estimated three million shipwrecks spread across the ocean floor. We have a
    more detailed map of Mars than we do of our own waters.

    Did you know that most of our gold is in our world’s oceans? According to the
    National Ocean Service, there is an estimated 20 million tons of gold
    suspended in the normal seawater. But this gold is spread throughout the
    normal mineral content of seawater to the tune of “parts per trillion.” Each liter of
    seawater contains, on average, about 13 billionths of a gram of gold. There are
    also gold deposits within the seafloor, but profitably mining them is far beyond
    our current abilities.

    ANSWER.

    2. Name seven reasons why the ocean is so important.
    3. Find one word in the first paragraph that means “something (such as
    food) that keeps someone or something alive”.
    4. Find a synonym for hardly in the passage. (Par. 1)
    5. What are the four named ocean basins of the world.
    6. Which ocean basin is the largest?
    7. What percent of planet Earth does the Pacific Ocean cover?
    8. How many times is the Pacific wider than the moon?
    9. Find an antonym for narrowest in the passage. (Par. 2)
    10. How many people, and for how long, can be supplied with water from
    one massive iceberg?
