Beyond that the colours darkened into fine shades of deep blue, and gradually disappeared.
The solar rays shone through the watery mass easily and consumed all colour.
Above me was the calm surface of the sea.
This dazzling carpet, really a reflector, drove away the rays of the sun with wonderful intensity.
Captain Nemo walked in front, one of his men following some steps behind.

Activity 6 Think and share
Let’s read these sentences together. Now what writing technique is used in these sentences?
Which two objects are compared? The author compared the water with the air, and compared the sand on the sea floor to the sand on the beach, right? What’s the advantage of making comparisons?
It helps us to imagine something new based on its connection with what we’re familiar with.

Use simile/metaphor to create a vivid image.
Think about the questions and answer.
Activity 6 Think and share
And apparently, these two sentences involves the use of figurative speech. Let’s look at the first one, so this is a picture of a nut with shell, can you imagine what the helmet look like? It looks like this, don’t they look just like the same? So use figurative speech to create an image.

Jules Verne (1828-1905)
During the 20th century Verne’s works were translated into more than 140 languages, making him one of the world’s most translated authors.
Verne’s influence extends beyond literature and film into the world of science and technology, where he inspired generations of scientists, inventors, and explorers. In 1954 the United States Navy launched the world’s first nuclear-powered submarine, named for Verne’s Nautilus. And for more than 130 years, many adventurers have followed in the footsteps of Verne’s fictional hero by attempting to travel around the globe.

Imagine you have been on this adventure. Make notes about your experience.
Now write a diary entry about your adventure.
Went and explored the magic waters around the Farne Islands.
a shipwreck, the 6,810-ton steamer Somali; thousands of grey seals
The ship was so amazing and looked as if she was about to set sail once again. The adult male seals looked a bit scary, but the young seals delighted me with their curiosity.

Sat., Jun.6, clear
I signed up for a diving program last week, so I got up early today. All the divers assembled at 8 am. Then we went to the waters around the Farne Islands. I was so excited to see the deep blue sea.
Firstly, we visited a shipwreck, the 6,810-ton steamer Somali, which sank in 1941 during the Second World War. The ship rested upright on the sea bed, about 30 metres below the waves. She was too amazing and looked as though she was about to set sail once again!
The second dive was to swim with Farne’s most lovely residents, the thousands of grey seals that live on the island all year. I saw the 300kg adult males which were the largest animals in my memory. It looked a bit scary, but the instructor told us they were harmless. Then I saw the young seals followed me among the seaweed forests and schools of unusual fish.
In the late afternoon, I finished the diving. Although it was a bit tired, I still think it was the most unforgettable experience.
