Ⅱ.Reading comprehension.
Some people might think of oysters（牡蛎）as delicious seafood or beautiful pearls（珍珠）. But for some people, oysters are environmental superstars. Demi
Johnson, a 15-year-old girl, is one of them. “They’re really important,” Demi says.
A single oyster can clean up to 50 gallons（加仑）of seawater a day. They are important helpers for our oceans.
Demi learned about oysters’ superpowers through “oyster gardening”—raising young oysters in cages not to eat, but to help the environment. In fact, she knew nothing about oyster gardening when she started in 2022. After taking a free class, now she has become an expert. This year, she even won a master oyster gardener prize. “You don’t have to do a lot to take care of them, but the influence on the environment is great,” Demi says.
There used to be lots of oysters in coastal waters. But their numbers have declined. This is mainly because of pollution and storms. Oyster gardening is a way to help. Now, Demi has several cages. Every week, she pulls the cages from the water to check her oysters and make sure they are healthy. When the oysters grow big, they are put into the sea to help other sea animals.
Up to now, Demi has already helped raise over 1,500 oysters! She also won an award and used the prize money to help more people start oyster gardening. Demi shows how young people can make a real difference for our planet.
