It may seem crazy, and probably irresponsible. After all, sharks are the top predators of the ocean. One bite and you will probably be dead shortly after, or at least badly wounded. But thrill and amazement are my reasons to dive with these majestic creatures. I started diving in my teens at abandoned oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico because I lived in Texas and these were the nearest places to dive in. Later, I was able to dive in some reefs in the Caribbean and I finally acquired a professional diving licence. Then I had the opportunity that changed my life. As a high-school graduation present, my parents offered to take me on a trip to dive anywhere I wanted. I chose the Galapagos Islands. We didn t plan it, but once we arrived to the islands, I had the chance of shark diving. These islands attract thousands of sharks every year, and we had arrived at the perfect time to see them. My parents weren t so happy about my choice by then, but after getting some advice from the diving instructor who was to take me, they accepted to join us. It was incredible! Being so close to so many sharks is indescribable. Seeing large hammerhead sharks swimming elegantly all around you is awesome. I decided this would not be the last time. So now I shark dive every year. When I have vacations, you may find me somewhere around this world, happily surrounded by sharks! Does Jim know about the dangers of sharks?

4 a. No, he has no idea b. There is no way of finding out c. Yes, he does 14. Lea el siguiente artículo y responda la pregunta. Jim the Shark diver Shark diving is not a typical dive.

12 21. People are living longer in the United States. As a result, more and more middle aged adults are becoming caretakers of their aging parents. When their parents can no longer care for themselves, these adults stay at home to care for them in much the same way they cared for their own children. Playing the role of "parent sitter" is quite difficult and frustrating. For example, an aging parent may become blind. No longer able to see, the old person needs his or her children to perform many every day jobs. Another example is the parent who becomes brain damaged during the aging process. Natural roles are then reversed, as children are forced to care for their parents as if their parents were children. The underlined words middle aged can be replaced by a. very young people. b. ancient people. c. very old people. d. people in their 50's.
