三、阅读理解
I don ’t think I can recall a time when I wasn ’t aware of the beauty of the ocean. Growing up in Australia, I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side. The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay, I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.
For my 10th birthday, my sister and I were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁). There were fish in different colors, caves and layers of coral (珊瑚). They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only 1 percent of Australia ’s Coral Sea was protected, I was shocked. Australian marine (海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the world ’s reefs are considered healthy. If we continued dealing with the ocean as we are doing, there would certainly be more and more marine disasters happening before our eyes, causing not only deaths of large quantities of marine life but also damage to health of the earth, our only home.
The situation of ocean protection against disasters is serious, so it ’s important for us to do everything to protect them. The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete eco-system (生态系统) has led me to take action. I ’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world. It would serve as a place where the ocean ’s species will all have a safe place forever.
Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be a part of the movement. Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.
1. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can learn the author________.
A. seldom went surfing at the sea
B. forgot his experiences about the ocean
C. never went back to his hometown
D. had a wonderful impression of Halfmoon Bay
2. According to the second paragraph, Australian marine life________.
A. is escaping from the Coral Sea gradually
B. depends on reefs for living greatly
C. may be faced with danger
D. is protected better than that in other oceans
3. The Protect Our Coral Sea activity is intended to________.
A. contribute to a complete eco-system
B. prevent more marine species from being endangered
C. set up a large nature reserve for reefs
D. raise more teenagers ’ environmental awareness
4. Angus and the author created a little video to________.
A. encourage more people to take action to protect the marine species
B. inspire more people to explore the secret of the ocean
C. share their childhood experiences about the ocean
D. bring back to people their memory of ocean species
