Unit3 Reading and Thinking 能力提升练
一、阅读理解
（2020江西高安中学月考）
A
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 to have the sea at my side. The first time I went to Half Moon 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. There were fish in different colors, caves and layers of coral. They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only I percent of Australia’s Coral Sea was protected, I was shocked. Australian marine life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than those of any other country on earth, But sadly only 45%of the world’s reefs are considered healthy.
This statistic is depressing, so it’s important for us to do everything to protect them. The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete ecosystem 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 lace 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 shared 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 underwater marine species.

A. It is escaping from the Coral Sea gradually.
B. It depends on reefs for living greatly.
C. It may be faced with danger.
D. It is protected better than that in other oceans.
3. What is the Protect Our Coral Sea activity intended to do
A. It is intended to contribute to a complete ecosystem .
B. It is intended to prevent more marine species from being endangered.
C. It is intended to set up a large nature reserve for reefs.

I’m an ocean lover. Living in Montreal, far away from the makes it even more a dreamland for me. 1 And I’ve been doing it for the last 20 years.
When I was younger, I would pick up seashells d little stones and bring them back home. 2 But as I visited the ocean more and more, I started picking up the garbage left by some people. I picked up less and less “ocean treasure”. 3
I realized that a stone or seashell we find in the ocean had a wonderful color that makes us pick it up. But when it dries up one day, or we don’t find what we have kept lovely anymore, what can we do then 4 At the same time, I also realized that natural things were nice in their natural environment. If everybody picked up every shell from the ocean, and left garbage there, the beach would become something not so nice very shortly.
5 I would just “borrow” seashells or little stones from the ocean, and bring them back after while, since the beauty of shells does so much good to me.
I control the quantity and keep it to the smallest number. So if you’ve seen a lady picking up garbage and throwing shells back into the ocean from a box or a bag on a beautiful sunny day, don’t feel strange. It was probably me.
A. So I made a decision that day.
B. I began to question my habits.
C. I try to visit it at the very least, once a year.
D. I will regret why I picked it up in the first place.
E. I had lots of them on my shelves, floors and desks.
F. The ocean influences life in California in many ways.
G. Ocean lovers from all walks of life should come together to protect it.
