TOEIC READING COMPREHENSION Exercise 7
Read the passage and answer the questions Our M.S. Jensen EXPLORER is not an ordinary cruise ship. It was built for the purpose of exploration.

Even though the EXPLORER is relatively small, it still accommodates ninety-two passengers with all the comforts expected aboard in a modern cruising vessel. We have a Lido deck with a swimming pool, comfortable lounges, and spacious cabins and because the air is warm, soft and inviting in these tranquil waters, the ship is fully air-conditioned. Each expedition carries an expert staff of naturalists, anthropologists, and diving instructors.
