    COMPREHENSION
    Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

    What has fins, sharp teeth, and swims in the ocean?


    A shark! Sharks have been around for a very long
    time. Sharks have lived in the oceans even before
    dinosaurs roamed the earth! Sharks are fish, and
    there are over 400 types of sharks. When they have
    babies, the babies are called pups. Sharks lose their
    teeth, like humans, but they don’t just lose their
    baby teeth. They lose teeth throughout their lives.
    When a shark loses a tooth, a tooth from another
    row of teeth will move into its place. New teeth are
    always growing. Most sharks are carnivores, so they feed on other animals, like
    fish or seals. Sharks might look scary, but they are not usually dangerous to
    people. People are more dangerous to sharks since people hunt sharks. To be safe,
    though, it is a good idea to leave sharks alone if you see them!
