Passage 7

  The Dead Sea is not a sea. It is a big lake in the Jordan Valley. The river Jordan runs into the Dead Sea. The lake is 400 meters below sea level. The sun is hot there and the water is salty. Fish cannot live in the salty water and plants cannot grow near it. People cannot swim well in the Dead Sea, but they can float on the water. The water is very blue and the air is clear. In the winter people come to the lake. They sit in the sunshine or bathe in the warm water.
