Question 24 - ESL Reading Skills Practice Test for the ACCUPLACER Test

Frequently, we hear about the need to wear a life jacket when riding in a boat. The use of a floatation device while boating is important, even if you are a good swimmer. The reason for this is that you never know what will happen when you are around water. You could become injured when falling from a boat and, therefore, be unable to swim. If you are tired, it could also be hard to swim in rough water. It is safer to be prepared for all possibilities.
