My attention was drawn towards the countless thousands of fish in the cold, crystal- clear water. There were a couple of penguins in the harbour, too, enjoying their share. It was captivating to watch them fly so fast through the water in pursuit of the fish, far more skilfully even than the gulls in the air. I was only surprised that there weren't more I penguins there to feast on such rich and easy pickings. I turned and walked on to the next breakwater. I had only been strolling along the seashore for ten, maybe fifteen minutes when I caught sight of the first of them: black, unmoving shapes. Initially I was aware of only a few but, as I walked on, they grew in number, until the whole beach appeared to be covered with black lumps in a black carpet. Dead penguins, covered in thick, suffocating oil and tar. The sight was so dreadful, so sickening and depressing, that I could only wonder what future lay ahead for any 'civilisation' that could tolerate, let alone carry out, such desecration. 2 Look again at lines 7 - 18 In your own words, explain what the writer thinks and feels about what he sees.
