54、s attacking human beings. The chances of being attacked by a shark are very small compared to other dangers. Many more people drown（溺死）in the ocean every year than are bitten by sharks. The low number of attacks that happen every year proves that sharks do not feed on humans if they have the choice.

The second type is called a bump and bite. The shark bumps you to find out if you are fit to be eaten and then bi

56、tes you if it thinks you are. The third type is called a sneak. When attacking in this way, the shark waits for you to swim by and attacks you suddenly.

57、u follow the advice below. Do not swim in the dark. Sharks can still see you but you cannot see them. Do not swim if you are cut or if you have a fresh wound.

58、 Try and stay in groups, as sharks usually avoid large numbers of people. Dont be frightened（受惊吓）by sharks as there is 30 times greater chance of being hit by lightning than being attacked by a shark.66. Are there only 30 types of sharks in the world?（within 3 words）67.
