Read the following text and then answer the questions.
Coasts
and beaches
Coasts are where the
land and the sea meet. Coasts change all the time. At high tide the sea comes
in and covers the land. At low tide the sea goes out again. Coasts also change
because of the weather. Sometimes it is very windy and the waves are big. But
at other times the sea is calm and the waves are small. Some coasts near big
cities are polluted but other coasts are clean.
Many coasts have
beaches which are popular in the summer. Some coasts have rocky beaches. Some
coasts have sandy beaches. Rocky beaches have rocks and rocks pools. Sandy
beaches have sand. Many small animals live on rocky and sandy beaches. You can
also find birds and plants.
