CLOZE-READING: Read the passage below and then choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) that fits best for the gap
A major revol...ns ever since.
Isn’t it unusual for things from ships to get lost in the sea. Every year, as many as 10,000 containers fall into the ocean, spilling out everything from sports shoes to plastic bricks. These objects have already done harm to both our seas and out wildlife, and if the accidents don’t stop, the situation will get worse. However, in the case of the floating ducks, something positive has happened.
Scientists know that the direction in which water moves in our seas and oceans affects out climate. Dr Ebbesmeyer, a scientist in the US, realised that observing the ducks as they float around the world can help us understand how ocean currents work. In order to collect information, he began to track the ducks’ progress; predicting where they would go, and listening to reports of where they found.
It seems that after travelling together for some time, the ducks went in different directions. Many of them floated south to the shores of Indonesia, Australia and South America. Meanwhile, the rest headed north into the Artic Ocean, becoming trapped in ice until the winds and the movement of the water sent them over 3,000 kms to the North Pole.
Today, although many ducks have been found washed up on different shores around the world, thousands of the ducks are still floating. So, if you see a plastic toy, bleached and worn after so much travelling, with the words “First Years” printed on it, and you report your find, you will help towards our standing of the world’s climate.
