C Read the story told by a turtle about how two humans helped him and answer the questions.
Life isn't always easy for turtles like me. These days, there's a lot of plastic in the ocean. Just last month, I swam straight into a plastic straw. It got stuck in my nose! Since I can't reach my own nose, I couldn't get the straw out. I tried to shake it loose, but it stayed stuck. I was having great trouble breathing, and I felt terrible. I thought, “Will this straw be in my nose forever?” I was afraid. I didn't know what to do!
After some time, I was tired, and I swam to the beach to have a rest. Two humans came over. They were wearing gloves. As they came close, I was scared. I didn't know whether they were kind or not. The two humans sat down beside me on the beach and spoke to me in soft, kind voices. They seemed quite nice.
One of them held me, and the other carefully pulled the straw out of my nose. It took some time, but finally the straw came out. I felt free! I was so happy! I was very grateful to those two humans.
They put me back into the water. I swam away. I turned back once and saw them picking up plastic from the waves.
