31. Which idea is talked about in the second paragraph of the news?
(A) What has happened to the Mekong River.
(B) Why the giant stingray is something special.
What kinds of fish are common in freshwater.
(D) What the team of scientists would do with the giant stingray.
The stingray which was caught on June
13, 2022 broke the world record:
When a team of scientists heard about the news of the giant stingray, they hurried to
Cambodia to study it. All of them were very surprised to see the stingray because it is
hard to find a large fish like it in freshwater. Large fish need large areas of water to live in,
and it takes them a long time to grow to be this big. This giant fish is also a good sign for
the Mekong River because it means the river is still healthy enough for fish.
Scientists today have little understanding about stingrays, so the team put a device
on the giant stingray before setting it free. They hoped that by studying it, they could
learn more about this special fish in years to come.
