The Story Of The Aral Sea
In 2009 in Kazakhstan, a group of fishermen met on a
Sunday afternoon. They were on the beach of the
North Aral Sea. They ate food. They did some sports.
Afterwards, they told stories and sang songs about the
Aral Sea and fishing. It was a good party.
The fishermen were happy because there were fish in
the water. For many years, there weren't many fish.
At one time, the Aral Sea in Central Asia was the
fourth largest lake in the world. It had an area of
67,300 square kilometres. Two of the biggest rivers in
Central Asia, the Amu Darya and the Syr Darya, went
into the Aral Sea. But the water almost disappeared.
The Aral Sea was a busy place. Almost 20 percent of
the Soviet Union's fish came from here. 40,000 people
lived and worked near the lake. Then people used the
water in the two rivers for agriculture, so the water
didn't arrive at the Aral Sea. Also, it didn't rain for
many years.
Then, in 2005, the Kazakh government and the World
Bank built a dam. The dam separated the north and
south parts of the sea. Then the north part of the
Aral Sea started to fill with water again.
Philip Micklin is a scientist. He studies the Aral Sea.
In 2010 he said 'Nature can come back.' But in
2014, he saw satellite pictures of the east part of
the Aral Sea. It was completely dry.
In June 2015 a scientist from Uzbekistan, Yusup
Kamalov, and a National Geographic reporter visited
the Aral Sea. They found a huge desert.They stood
on the sand. Once it was the edge of the water. Now
the water is 80 kilometres away. They drove to the
water. On the way, they passed oil and natural gas
rigs. Kamalov said that every year there are more oil
rigs. They arrived at the edge of the Aral Sea. The
water was very salty. There were no fish. Kamalov
said, 'This is what the end of the world looks like'.
Choose the correct option according to the text.

2. What is the problem in the Aral Sea?
