Section A: Comprehension Passage.

Sea Lions

Sea-lions bear some resemblance to seals, though they are much larger. When fully grown, they are from twelve to twenty feet in length, and from eight to fifteen feet in circumference; they are extremely fat, so that having cut through the skin, which is about an inch in thickness, there is at least a foot of fat before you come to either lean or bones.

Their skins are covered with short grey hair, but their tails and their fins, which serve them for feet on shore, are almost black. They have a distant resemblance to an overgrown seal, though in some particulars there is a manifest difference between them, especially in the males. These have a large snout, or trunk, hanging down five or six inches below the end of the upper jaw, which the females have not.

These animals divide their time equally between the land and the sea, continuing at sea all the summer, and coming on shore at the setting in of winter, where they reside during the whole of that season.in this interval they bring forth their young, and have generally two at birth, which they suckle with their milk, they being at first about the size of a full-grown seal. During the time these sea-lions continue on shore, they feed on the grass and small plants which grow near their banks of fresh-water streams.

They often, especially the males, have furious battles with each other, principally about their females; and we were one day surprised at the sight of two sea-lions goring each other with their teeth until they were covered with blood.
