Each time sharks' (акула) teeth were found in the damaged cable. Though the cable contains optical fibres transmittingsignals in the form of light, it carries a very small amount of electrical wires.
It is known that electricity attracts sharks. Therefore, ordinary electric power cables are usually provided with some kind ofprotection to stop their being attacked by sharks. However, it wasnot expected that it was necessary to mount this expensive protection on the new cable. But provided the designers had used thisconventional protection on the new cable, the sharks would nothave approached it.CONVERSATIONExercise 1. Answer the questions.1.
