With the depletion of the cod fishery and so many other coastal fish stocks worldwide, the fishing industry has turned to the high seas to exploit their resources. Fishing operations are now【B1】______the seamounts, oceanic ridges and plateaus of the deep ocean【B2】______national jurisdiction, where ownership and responsibility do not【B3】______to any nation.
【B4】______a decade or more, we have caused significant damage to【B5】______unknown ecosystems, depleted species and probably doomed many others to【B6】______. Every day, commercial fishing fleets【B7】______primarily from just 11 nations venture【B8】______the high seas to fish the deep ocean. What’s left is truly a lonely, infertile, undersea desert.
The high seas are very special. It is here where you can find【B9】______groupings of animals that【B10】______their energy from sources【B11】______the sun around volcanoes on the deep sea floor. It is only here where you can find areas still free from introduced species,【B12】______in the seas around Antarctica. And it is here where you can find【B13】______organisms that are more than 8,000 years old, like many of the massive deep-sea corals.
But what really sets the high seas【B14】______from all other areas we know is the【B15】______lack of protection for any of this natural heritage.
A United Nations meeting recently finally pay great attention to the high seas and put them on the【B16】______. Government officials from around the world gathered together with scientists, representatives from the fishing【B17】______, conservation groups and other stake-holders to discuss conservation and【B18】______use of marine biological diversity in the high seas,【B19】______64 percent of the Earth’s surface.
They need to move quickly.【B20】______the fragility of these environments, we simply do not have the luxury of time, but we can act before it is too late.
【B15】
选项
A、overwhelming
B、unmatchable
C、intolerable
D、unforeseen
答案
A
解析
形容词辨析题。前文提到公海被肆无忌惮地破坏,主要原因是这些地方的所有权和责任不属于任何国家,也就是说对于这里资源的保护严重缺乏,因此选overwhelming“不可抵抗的,巨大的”。unmatchable“不能匹敌的,无法对抗的”;intolerable“无法忍受的”;unforeseen“无法预料的”。
