Question 1


1 / 2

Read this text. It is from an article called "LEGO Lost At Sea." Then, answer the question.

It has been 25 years since the spill. Why are people still finding LEGO pieces?

Seawater is always moving. There are ocean currents. These move a lot like rivers. Some currents flow quickly near the ocean's surface. Others crawl along the seafloor. This movement slowly shifts objects resting there. The LEGO pieces are among them. Some get carried to shore.
