Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. "Lake Malawi is one of Africa's Great Lakes and forms much of Malawi's eastern border. Fishers from lakeshore villages set out early in wooden boats called bwatos to catch chambo and usipa. Tourism is growing because visitors enjoy swimming, diving, and watching colourful cichlid fish. Schools near the lake teach children to respect the water, because storms can rise quickly and put small boats at risk. Local leaders also encourage fishers to follow fishing seasons so that young fish can grow." Which statement best expresses the main idea of the passage?

Lake Malawi supports fishing and tourism, but people must treat it carefully. Only tourists use Lake Malawi today. Bwatos are used only for diving lessons. Storms have made fishing impossible on Lake Malawi.
